Phillip Miller Game Tape

[JHHawk]

Agree. These message board legend players that haven't qualified are wild cards at best. If you can get them, if they stay eligible, if they don't transfer the first time they miss some PT because of missing class or a bad grade. No sure bets, but I agree he is probably a better fit for a program that is a bit more liberal with their academic standards.

It almost always comes down to character. If a kid has the character to work hard,in the classroom and on the court,and to do the right thing,on and off the court, they pan out.

I know that some school systems are just bad/or home environment is bad,and so the kids are so far behind,they never have a chance,but I think Dallas Carter is probably not a horrible school,as they have had many,many kids go to college out of there,especially football players.

This article indicates that Phillip is a leader,who is respected by teammates and coaches...that is good. He attends church with his teammates....not a bad thing. And he is a hard worker,according to this article...on the court and off. All good. Fran needs to make the call on his character,and I trust him.

This kid would be feast or famine at Iowa. Really might be a better option in SEC or Sun Belt where they could promise he would stay eligible.

Did you not listen to anything I said. He doesnt have an issue staying eligible. He NEVER took his ACT until Saturday.

I am sorry to hi-jack this thread, but I never understand watching videos of recruits that come from large schools from big states like Texas or California, and the crowd is completely empty. My high school had larger crowds and I played at a 1a school in Iowa. This kid's videos are that way and so was the video of a tiny pg from Mater Dei in California that I saw a few months ago. I just don't get it.

Um, maybe because in Calornia there is actually something better to do with your time than watching high school kids play sports. Like make millions of dollars, date models and actresses, surf, watch Kobe, Griffin, Apier, Beckham, Salanne, USC, UCLA, even freaking San Diego State. Texas can say the same.

But hey why don't they just spend their time watching a bunch of kids that aren't even going to play college ball? You seriously don't get that?

Oh, but they show up for football games like no other. Yes, I know it's Texas, but the same basic principle applies. People in Texas just don't give a s*it about basketball, plain and simple.

haha, I'm sure all those high school kids can afford to go see those guys, have the luxury of dating a super model. Sure. That's what it is.

Was it 60% for the game, or for the season? I think that is where the confusion comes in.

Also, isn't Carter the team that beat Permian in Friday Night Lights. I think so. they have a ton of athletes at that school.

Yes, but they never actually where in the championship game because they had a lot of players playing while ineligible.

"Like make millions of dollars, date models and actresses"


And with that, Caar has gone from a guy I disagree with on occasion to a guy I just ignore.

They won the game and they had the title stripped three years later. And IIRC there was only one player who was ineligible.

This guy is not even in Scout.com's database. Where do you find a profile on him?
