How was it not?

He wasn't really "injured". it was a cop out because Howard was getting blown out even when he played so he decided to sit out with an "injury" to protect himself moving forward because there was no point of him playing if they weren't competing. His draft stock is non existent and this only hurts HBCU's chances going forward.

All the Maker's are trash tho. never bought into the hype
reduced to lying :russ:

You clearly don't know how politics in college sports work.

I bet you think Terrence Clarke from Kentucky is actually still injured too :dead:
In typical imbecile fashion your own comments just proved my point that school choice/attendance does not matter to elite prospects thus underlining why the "this HBCU experiment was a failure" narrative is only for the intellectually underdeveloped.... now go sit your stupid ass down typing to me goofy :mjlol:

I see why you have negative rep. :francis:

T.Clarke will get drafted because he went to Kentucky despite him looking horrendous and not playing. Maker will not and going to an HBCU will not help his draft stock at all.

Lol @ your dumbass thinking players will now be more receptive to going to an HBCU when a top 20 5 star prospect is about to go undrafted after attending one.

The school choice doesn't matter but BJ Boston is still a top 20 draft pick on mock draft despite him looking like one of the worst 5 star players to ever put on a college uniform. But yea, going to Kentucky has nothing to do with that. :russ:

Kyrie Irving started 8 games at duke and was drafted #1 Darius Bazley skipped college signed with clutch and skipped the g league also and was still a first round pick ... the press alone from that school choice made him present to people who didn't have a clue about who he was which was a net positive for a budding public figure ..if he performs well in the draft lead up teams will have interest ...you nikkas once again don't know what you're talking about :mjlol:

Kyrie and Bazley where looked at as 1ndone pro prospects by the time they where seniors in hs

This kid is a different story very raw and more of a project he wasn't on anyone's radar and still isn't....why he chose Howard when there where much better HBCU options who knows$$

in a way its a failure in a way its not considering circumstances

whatever the case wish breh the best...it clear he needs to avoid the draft, needs to go to the gleague or transfer to a school that can max his potential....

We see players routinely getting drafted higher than they should because of where they went to school but somehow on the coli, school choice doesn't matter.

Skal Labisierre is the perfect example. Got drafted 28th, he was mocked higher than that and fans thought he was a steal at that pick because he went to Kentucky but anyone who watched him play saw how terrible he was and that he wasn't even a top 100 player. Yet he went 1 and done, went first round and is out the league 4 years later. Really he was out the league the second he got drafted cause he never really played.

honestly it kinda makes sense...he probably peeped the fukkery and realized if he ducked out early enough he could be eligible to play for another school immediately next year....

Only reason I know that is because of how quickly they shut him down after an embarrassing loss to a D2 program. That wasn't a good look for his stock and he knew that when he joined Howard that they weren't competing, his decision wasn't really about basketball. It was trying to make a culture shift and him thinking he was good regardless even if Howard sucked. I don't think he expected them to be that trash too. Also, I'm a college basketball fan and u see it all the time especially with 5 star players getting these "injuries" when in reality they opted out.

I'm watching a G-League game while I work right now and Skal is playing. You're not lying, he does not look good. He's coming off the bench in the G-League. James Young is playing in the same game.

A lot of these guys are lucky that they went to Kentucky, otherwise they never would've been picked in the 1st round

And I see why my claims about you being a moron rang true ... Clarke will get drafted because he's an elite prospect not because of a total of 7 mediocre games as a Wildcat ...going to Kentucky did nothing for his stock in fact he probably has dropped in ranking because of his disastrous season ...matter of fact every one of those hyped Kentucky freshman have dropped in value.. going to Kentucky has helped none of them

Lol @ your dumbass thinking players will now be more receptive to going to an HBCU when a top 20 5 star prospect is about to go undrafted after attending one.
1.where did i write anything about this shortbus nikka :russ:

2.top 20 high school prospects get passed over in the draft literally every single year its nothing unique and definitely doesn't say anything about Makurs choice ..Vernon Carey was a top 10 recruit went to Duke and didnt get drafted until the second round ... Kahlil Whitney was a top 15 recruit like Makur yet went to Kentucky .. disastrously flammed out and went undrafted in November... your dumbass probably doesn't even know who that is tho lmao ... should i keep giving more examples educating you Mr.Idiot??


The school choice doesn't matter but BJ Boston is still a top 20 draft pick on mock draft despite him looking like one of the worst 5 star players to ever put on a college uniform. But yea, going to Kentucky has nothing to do with that:russ:
Darius Bazley was an Actual 1st round pick after skipping the college and the gleauge not a "projected" top 20 pick unlike BJ ..lmao @ thinking playing at Kentucky is the reason a guy who was preseason top 10 in his class is being considered an NBA prospect :russ:

...I mean what the fukk is your moron ass even rambling about here... do you even know?? ... like i said sit the fukk down ..you're embarrassing yourself

How are the two mutually exclusive dummy (if you even know what that phrase means) .... you don't hit your popularity apex in your senior year of highschool :russ:


You nikkas are living in 1995 thinking young players with more constant access to media outlets than ever before actually NEED college to help platform them ... as if nikkas weren't literally getting drafted straight out of high school before the one and done rule:mjlol:

... imagine thinking someone like Zion NEEDED duke to be a top draft pick lmao ..it really never ceases to amaze me just how comfortable you nikkas are with stupidity on this site

Kyrie and Bazley where looked at as 1ndone pro prospects by the time they where seniors in hs

What top 20 prospects in the year 2020 AREN'T assumed to be 1 and done candidates?? what year are you nikkas actually living in :mjlol:


This kid is a different story very raw and more of a project he wasn't on anyone's radar and still isn't....why he chose Howard when there where much better HBCU options who knows$$
WTF are you talking about?? how is a 5 star prospect "on no ones radar" lmao ...Darius Bazley was ranked 13th in his class when he decided to skip the whole amateur process and take a marketing job for a year Makur was ranked 16th ...ON NO PLANET was one dude more established or recognized than the other ..you're flat out lying and making shyt up..the only reason Bazley made national news was due to his choice to skip the process and sign with Clutch

in a way its a failure in a way its not considering circumstances

whatever the case wish breh the best...it clear he needs to avoid the draft, needs to go to the gleague or transfer to a school that can max his potential....
You clearly have 0 idea what you're talking about brother ..its ok to admit that

Skal Labissire was the #2 player in his recruiting class behind Ben Simmons in 2015 and that is the ONLY reason he was drafted as his time at Kentucky was disastrous... had their been no one and done rule he would have been a first round pick out of highschool regardless...the fact that you actually used him to prove the value of school brand name is hilarious and underscores your lack of grasp/intellect on the topic

nikka by your own retort how the fukk did Howard boost him, which is my point, going to Howard fukked him, it wasn’t mutually beneficial

and no you don’t hit your max popularity in high school but some dudes have so much hype that it’s just a matter of going to the right school to unlock more look at Zion, nikkas was going to his games from out of town Duke only enhances his star power but yeah you got it bruh, going to Howard was the best thing he could do
