Did he say that he didn't want to play for a bad basketball team or just our bad basketball team?TheMoody1 wrote:Kgfish wrote:What's the logic of bringing bad pub to basketball program embroiled in negativity?

So, NLI's should only be honored for good basketball teams? That makes a lot of sense.
Or Devonte could turn into another Donte and it serve as a warning about trying things that this.Maddog1956 wrote:Three weeks since the last post here and it seems all is well!
Seems like the sports world has forgot all about it.
We may never get a recruit from Devonte's school, but if we do I bet they take their NLI serious.

You are one of three people:
- a family member
- a wolfpack fan
- DG's AAU coach
If you are DG's AAU coach thanks providing us this valuable advice, unlike Devonte we aren't buying it. If you are you've already screwed up (your words) one year of Devonte's life. This is on you not App State.
If there had not been tampering App State releases him, unfortunately that doesn't appear to be the case.
I live in Raleigh and have been telling my state friends this ever since the 1st game I saw Jim Harrick sitting behind Gottfried on the bench. Trouble always seems to follow him whereever he goes.kgblade wrote:Wrong. I've been told better from some State donors that give on a level that gets one some inside info. They're pissed about what Gottfried did in this circumstance. They also believe he is a short timer at State because of a number of bad decisions they know of him that have nothing to do with this issue, but this issue doesn't help him.
I'll tell you wnat pissed me off "An ASU Grad and a born UNC fan......" That says it all right there and the rest will come out when the NCAA investigates NCSUapp123 wrote:Saint3333 wrote:Join date, 9/18/13, 19 posts all about one subject.

Wrong on all the above.
- A Broughton High and ASU graduate. So maybe being a Broughton alumni makes me a FAMILY MEMBER
- A born UNC fan (that never liked Capel)
His selfish and stubborn Ego screwed up the Heels team. And screwing up again.
Whatever I said that has pissed you all off, Get over it and recognize where the problem is with the team.
Perhaps, the kid actually realized this coach and team was a bust.
Oh yeah, If anything else to say look for me at the game tonight. I will have the "FREE DTAE" shirt

You should be ashamed of yourself, first for the UNC fan part, but mostly for supporting the idea that one's word means nothing, that a man's signature on a contract should be worthless. That's where the problem lies.app123 wrote:Saint3333 wrote:Join date, 9/18/13, 19 posts all about one subject.

One thing about Donte though . . . he came back and was the difference maker that gave us one of our greatest seasons ever. There is no way he would have come here if we had refused to let him out of his LOI and made him burn a year of eligibility while he was prepping. While there is no doubt that we can fully enforce the LOI, we are operating outside of custom. When you bypass custom you piss people off, even if you are within your rights to do so. The national media has certainly forgotten about this, but the Garner Road program hasn't. And the elite HS basketball community in Raleigh is very small. Its nothing like football. I think our reputation has been harmed there. That said, we can do fine without players from that area the next couple years.appgrouch wrote:Or Devonte could turn into another Donte and it serve as a warning about trying things that this.Maddog1956 wrote:Three weeks since the last post here and it seems all is well!

New Mexico is holding a kid to an LOI he signed before Alford took the UCLA job. It is not nearly as uncommon as the media has made it out to be to hold someone to their word.wataugan03 wrote:One thing about Donte though . . . he came back and was the difference maker that gave us one of our greatest seasons ever.

That your word is your word and if you sign a contract you honor it.JCline0429 wrote:I'm in the corner of not freeing Donte up, but I wonder how we would feel if the situation were reversed.
