Are Brooks and Dorsey expected to go pro?

This team would be so good again if they both aren't morons

Considering they both considered it last year, I bet they are gone

Brooks is based on the mocks I seen. Not sure about Dorsey

Because if I allow you to bring me down to that level of stupidity then you'll just beat me with experience.

Answer a question correctly is stupidity?

It's all making sense now.

Brooks is projected to be a mid-2nd rounder.

Neither have any business going but especially Dorsey, watching the way Dorsey plays(don't get me wrong he's very good) gives me the impression he delusionally thinks he's ready.

You refuse to acknowledge that you have no idea what you're talking about and that makes having a discussion with you (and hockey) impossible. I never said that they were incapable. How have you guys missed the dozen or so times that I clearly said that they are capable? I said that I can't say going in that I'd predict it. That's 100% all I have been saying, surrounded by how much I think they are a good team, and are a good program. I've stated over and over that they are definitely good enough to go to the FF, but I just can't say before hand that I'd predict it. My ceiling for them was the EE, how does that mean I think they are incapable? How can you make that leap?

You still can't get it through your head that there is a difference between saying a team sucks, and saying a team is good, but you don't have them in your FF.

How is it that you completely miss this when I say it at every turn?

Never thought you thought they sucked. I'm just saying if you never think or predict a team will make the FF, my conclusion is that you think they're incapable of getting there.

You're trying to compare 13 years of history (with two different teams) to 100 years of history. If you can't see how unanswerable that question is then it's not my place to make sure you know how unrealistic that is as a comparison.

Yeah he has 1 every other class. And for the most part, is lucky that they aren't 1 and dones. There are low 5 stars that are McDonald's All Americans, not every one is one and done.

Hicks, Meeks, Berry, Jackson, Bradley, and Pinson were McDonalds All-Americans.

It's not a comparison.

It's a question. With a few specific answers.

That's what I thought.....Roy's not exactly scouring the JC's for talent and having to beg players to come to Carolina.

On the flip side of that, Berry is shooting 2/12 from the field and they are up by 9.

Apparently. And your conclusion is be wrong. You'd see as much if you read how often I expressed a genuine feeling that they were, in fact capable. If you can't read well enough to see that then I don't know how else to explain it. There are about 10 teams that I thought we capable of going to the FF that I didn't pick to do so going in. GU, Oregon, AZ, UCLA, Louisville, are all teams that I thought were capable but I wouldn't predict them going in. I think they have great teams, but only 4 teams can get there. So how much sense does it make to pick 10 teams to go to the FF?

On the thread about picking the 5 teams everyone though would make the FF, I chose, Nova, Duke, KU, UK, and NC. Those aren't the only capable teams I saw in CBB that could make the FF. How are you unable to understand that?

Right about now is when Dorsey and Brooks need to get hot if Oregon is going to pull this out.
