Matt Roth Rumor

[BUfan14]

I it doesn't matter if he comes here or not to me. Another shooter is always a good thing in college basketball, and we will lose 3 guards after next season, which he would have to sit out anyway. That would bring an experienced guy who can shoot right into the picture the following year.

If he doesn't come here I don't mind either, we have enough talent the next couple years on this team. But I'm not insulted by him choosing another school and maybe wanting to come here now, I don't feel like a second option. He did what he thought was best for him like any kid, if he now feels being here is best for him, why not? I do believe a big man is the biggest priority. Just a guy who is big weight wise and good defensively and can get a couple put-backs, he doesn't have to be overly tall or great on offense.

Well, we aren't looking like we will be stacked down low, so I don't see how another 3-point shooter could hurt, especially one that our future point guard had significant success and comfortableness with in high school...

Roth would fill in for Warren after he graduates.

I'd take MR at BU in a heartbeat.

Now if he was about 6' 10" 225 Lbs that would be a different answer.

You saved me some typing... but I want that 6'10 guy to be in the 250 pound area so he can tear up the MVC!

Whatever happens happens...

Here's a question??? Will he still have to redshirt if he comes to BU.... if he gets the medical redshirt since he is out with a injury.... I would take another shooter cause our shooters can be hot for 3 games and cool off for 5 games.... But i would take a BIG man right now

[BradleyBrave]

I'll take a shooter. We have a lot of turnover in the backcourt coming.

If you want to get better, you need to get better players then you lose. I'd take Matt in a heart beat. He can shoot better then anyone we currently have. Coach Brown was brought up as as Asst,but even though I think he does an excellant job on the HS level. I think we need someone with College experience who is a known recruiter. Matt Yes Brown no. IF We are going to get a HS coach,lets find one from Chicago who can bring connections with him. It worked for ISU ( King O & Carmichael.)

The answer is yes. He would still have to sit out an entire year (which he would lose since he's already used a redshirt season this year). He would not be eligible to play until the fall of 2011, and would have 2 years to play.

[BradleyBrave]

If this were true, I think he would have been smarter to transfer at semester. He'd then be eligible to play next Christmas.

Just thinking out loud here... If he left last semester, would that affect his redshirt status???

Probably, and for the better. He wouldn't need to waste the redshirt. He would have had to sit out anyways, and be eligible earlier.

I'm in this camp but I would not want it at the expense of a true big or for JW. So with only 2 scholies for next year open he would have to pay his own way for one year while he sits. How realistic is that? I guess anything is possible.

I on board with that as well as the anti-Tim Kurkjian bandwagon. One of the worst refs this side of the Aroostook River without a doubt.

[78Brave]

If a scholarship is not renewed does a player still sit out a year?

[Nacho]

Maybe it goes with the Coach Brown rumor too.

Rumors are saying he may leave Washington and join Les' staff at Bradley.

Package deal to get Roth and keep DSE around???
