Mr. Force,

"There cannot be a more exciting player in the Missouri Valley Conference this season than Eric Coleman."

Are you serious??? You must have been distracted all season by my mohawk.

Sincerely,
Osiris Eldridge

Yeah, Coleman's been a good player in this league, but this season he's been kind of mailing it in and there are several players-- Osiris Eldridge and Josh Young come to mind-- that had great seasons and are very exciting players to watch.

Newcomer of the year - Theron Wilson

Of all the seniors who finish this year...........and I'll name a few...

.......Ruffin, Crouch, Salley, Emmenecker, Houston, Korver, Boo, Slack, Dom, Levi Dyer, Falker, Shaw, Watts, Bahe, Mitchell, Lamberth, Laurie, Manswell, Couisnard, Thomasson, Coleman, Josten, Viet, Moore,

How many do you think will get at least a look from an NBA team?
Even if it just a tryout or an invite to an open camp or a workout or tryout?

Here is what I think.......
I think none will ever play in the NBA, BUT SEVERAL will get a chance to show their stuff at camps and workouts.

The NBA always looks at shooters, PG's, and big men....
so I say Crouch, Ruffin, Falker, Coleman, and maybe Slack, Emmenecker and Dyer could have a shot....but will all still probably play overseas at best.
But unfortunately as talented as the rest are, we're still talking NBA, and undersized guys like Houston, Couisnard, Dom, and Boo probably won't get a look. The rest might even be borderline for playing anywhere above the Finnish "B" League...but time will tell.
Feel free to make some predictions..............
