JUCO Recruiting

Carter was MVP of the WCC Tourney. Gratitude and appreciation are in very short supply around here among the entitled.

Giacoletti was in charge of Jucos, with Tommy to a lesser degree.

Carter played ok, but to say it was MVP like is only when you compare him to the guards who were on the roster at that time. The weakest in decades, IMO. Once freshmen Pangos and Bell arrived, it was obvious Carter wasn't all that good

Wasn't S. Gray a SR on that team?

Apparently among the coaches as well. They basically benched him most of last season, having given up and wisely so that his MVP play was a distant memory.

Steven and Carter aren't even in the same hemisphere as talents. Lets hope Gary Bell gets to SGs level at some point.

I get that Gray was better but somehow MC played on par or better than SG during a good stretch of that season.

Crazy Legs helped save our season. He stepped up at the most important time. I'll always hold him in pretty high regard for that reason, regardless of anything that happened his senior year.

Add Bakari Hendrix (WCC MVP) to the list if you guys can remember that far back.
You might also look at the number of JC at WSU that did not pan out as expected.

I had a friend who never invested in mutual funds or stock but told me that it was really very simple and he could make a fortune if he only had some cash to get started.--just but the stocks that are going up.
Why didn't I think of that?

[bartruff1]

I doubt that very much..

I am sure they remember and appreciate what he did.....unlike some.

As we all recall Kong, Gibbs, Vilarino, Arop, the guy from Maine....Team Dysfunction.

Why is it so difficult to give credit to Carter when credit is due ?? What he accomplished and contributed is simply a matter of record ?

Ok, for half a year Carter was a pretty good player on a very mediocre team. He had a very good post season. Then he disappeared into the night.

[bartruff1]

Well, that is progress...

We could use a coach from the JUCO ranks.

Not a bad idea.

Depending on how far back

you choose to go:

Lorenzo Rollins & John Rillie, both 1st teamers.

And Rillie is pretty much credited with getting the Zags to their FIRST NCAA Tourney.
