What we do need is a player who can create his own shot off the dribble, and I think Parker can bring that element. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can win the A10 then you can win a game in March Madness. The idea that the ceiling is first round doesn’t even really make sense, given the randomness of the tournament.

Marlow Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Cuonzo is 3 and 4 in the NCAA’s. He took Tenn. to the sweet 16. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, Parker gets here on time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOC Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Don’t you think the professional team that signs him will want to see him play before signing him? That would mean we won’t know until July/August. Unless, he just decides he’s coming back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a point in time where Ford needs to know if he is returning or not. If he waits too long, the backfill options will be all but gone. In his interview, Perkins said he should be 'released from doctors orders' in June and hopes to be 100% by October. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I listened to his interview and heard that timeline. The NBA next season is not an option for Perkins. They want sure things and he won't be for the NBA draft. Frankly, if he wants to play college hoops it's either SLU or transfer to another team. I'm not sure how the pro minor leagues work so I have no idea what his options are there either in USA or Europe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is not released from medical care yet, and is not yet fully recovered by what you say. I do not know who would pick him to play professional sports, in the US or in the foreign leagues, at this time. He may make up his mind sooner than we think.

In his interview, Perkins said he should be 'released from doctors orders' in June and hopes to be 100% by October. (Copied from above.) I'm sure SLU has an excellent medical and rehab staff. But there are many others just as good outside of the college world. And Jordan Goodwin had a very impressive improvement in his shot when he got a shooting coach. I'm not saying anything except Perkins has a lot of options to consider. My biggest hope is that he has qualified for his Bachelor's degree this spring. After that, I support whatever he decides.

I am not sure what you are saying. Perkins, himself - in the interview, gave the June/October timeline. Why wouldn't he have options? Perkins seems to think he has options, or he would not say "I can't say yes and I can't say no." Curious..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talking about 2 different timelines here. I was aware of his injury timeframe, which makes his decision timeline (which you referred to above)problematic. He can’t tell Ford if he’s coming back until he works out for his pro prospects. But he won’t be ready to do that until late summer at the earliest. So when does he let Ford know was my question. Although, his scholarship can only be used by him so that allows for more time to make a decision I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see this happening but if CFord tells JPerk I need an answer as to your return by whatever date or the program will move on CFord has that ability Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bay Area Billiken Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Coach Travis Ford said this morning on Frank Cusumano's show on 590 The Fan that he would be sitting down with Javonte Perkins (shortly) after the season, has already been talking to him. While Coach did not give a specific time, that I recall, my impression was it was pretty short. DOC, Schasz and HoosierPal like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Perkins decides he is not coming back to SLU then CTF needs to find a replacement. That would probably be thru the transfer portal. The timeline he gave at least the early part of it doesn't work for SLU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
