3 out of 10 starters are 5 th year graduate students. Has anybody looked into how many guys in the NCAA who are 5 yr graduate students were also reclassified in HS? Along with all of the other distinctions and advantages I’d prefer to coach 23 yr olds against 21 yr olds if my job was in the line.

Didn't the Bison have a certain 23 year old from Germany in the not so distant past?
New season, new team, new dream . . .

So that’s a parallel...? Two questions:

1. why was he older
2. And is this a systematic policy that Bucknell abuses at the expense of others

The big schools reduce risk by recruiting off the backs of mid majors. Just what they need...another advantage. Nobody’s really ATTENDING grad school although their all GOING to grad school and the kids are lead to believe that the exposure will get them to the NBA. It’s ludicrous and it’s crap

Tariq Owens turns 24 in June and the kid that came off the bench and hit all the 3’s turns 25 in September. Transfer rule coupled with the reclassification nonsense are unbelievably skewed against mid-majors and neither of the kids will be pros...
