I was half-joking when I typed that - and I hope you are right about the changes.

Yeah the NCAA was suppose to be changing that rule for years now.  I thought it took effect this year but you never know with them.

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2010/writers/luke_winn/07/21/euro.u20s/1.html

Top 20 college players at the Euro Championships:
17) Deniz (Mükremin) Kilicli, Turkey (2-7, 13th place, Division A)
6-10, Soph. PF, West Virginia
U20 Stats: 6.8 mpg, 1.8 ppg, 1.8 rpg

"Mountaineers coach Bob Huggins is eyeing Kilicli as a starter at center next season, and WVU fans are hoping the big Turk will have a sophomore breakout ... but his stats from Croatia were underwhelming. He was with the Turkish team under curious circumstances -- he initially said he'd be visiting home for 2 1/2 weeks, but was then pulled into national-team duty until the end of July. Kilicli didn't get off the bench in four of the team's final five games, and probably would've been better off training in Morgantown".

Im curious...is that just not his style of play,or is he not ready to be the player that we thought he would be this coming season yet?

i'm sure his attitude was probably pretty piss poor and he didn't want to be there so that probably had a little to do with it in his coaches' eyes....

I didn't think of that...you could certainly be right Geno!

  I know that if I was forced to do something like that I would have given little to no effort as well. Also could be he did not want to take a chance on getting injured along with not being very happy about being forced to play.

Great read about Deniz and what happened to him over the summer.Click on "continuation" at the top after you are done with the first page to read the second page.
Speaking about the Turkish national Team...Deniz-"They just didnt like me.I should have played at least 25 minutes per game on that team,even without my left leg"!  funny funny
