Hey what do u know i declared today too! WOW what a small world……this is gonna be great maybe Paul and i can try out together!
WOW….hey here is a concept, play a full season as a starter and not an off the bench player….
Well that wasn't his fault. Rex didn't like him so he didn't start him. Second leading scorer on our team and he comes off the bench.. makes sense to me lol
My two favorite teams are FAU, and who ever is beating FIU!

Re: Paul Graham declares for NBA draft
In the games I saw last year PG was clearly the most physically gifted player on the squad. In the games I saw the year before, Rice never took a shot that I didnt think was going in. Both players tested the system, both players paid a price, and ultimately games were lost for a principle that no one is larger than the system.

"Edit: Just got off the phone with Graham and he said he has not hired an agent and could change his mind by June 16 and return for his senior season.
“With the coaching situation the way it is, I thought maybe I could workout and see what I need to work on to get to that level, ” Graham said. “It’s kind of hard without a coach, but I talked to a few people about it and decided I wanted to do it as a test.”
So, it appears that it is not possible to return if you declare entry into the draft…
That doesnt bode well for us…Hopefully he sees the best path for him - stay at FAU.

That is actually not the case. There is a date in June(not sure of the exact day) that players are able to withdraw so long as they have not hired an agent.

There is no doubt that AFTER his senior year he will enter the draft, he just wants his name out there a year before.
Hopefully teams will watch some film on him and like what they see.

So by the 16th if he doesnt get picked up, he can withdraw and come back to school…IF he hasnt hired an agnet, because that would make him a pro??
Is this how it works??
This is all new to me, as FAU has NEVER had a player in the NBA…and i think Rice may in fact be the only one who ever entered the draft even…well, maybe besides Mike Bell…

Well the draft is on June 26th. By the 16th, all underclassmen who have not hired an agent have to decide if they are in or out. If they stay in, then they cannot return to school. If they pull out of the draft, they go back to school with their eligibilty intact.
