Another possible 2010 Recruit Torrell Candelaria

[Zipfalls_DSS]

From a close source, I was told that the men's basketball team is looking to add an athletic combo guard out of the Philadelphia area to the team. His name is Torrell Candelaria, he's a McDonald's All-American Nominee, 6'2, 6'8 wingspan, attends Girard College High School, and also being recruited by Oregon! He's an under the radar guy and will be a steal for any college that gets him. Many teams feared him for his uncanny shooting ability, but he is also a very athletic all around guard! I hope we can get this kid! Here are some clips:

There will have to be a defection/firing to sign another: all scollys are in good hands. What's your source saay will happen?

[Zipmeister]

I am gonna believe whatever you say cause the last guy to join the nation just to tell us about a GREAT recruit with monster hands has proved to be incredibly accurate.

Pure speculation, but maybe Darryl Roberts gives up his scholarship?

Pure speculation, but maybe Darryl Roberts gives up his scholarship, wins the Nobel Prize in Economics and we sign the under the radar monster wingspan man.

If you are implying that Merton Miller did not deserve to win the Nobel Prize in Economics my friend, you are sadly mistaken.

I hear that person is going to win the Heisman Trophy this year based off of him attending a football game.

Strange you should mention that because I met and talked with Merton Miller back in the 80s and he was a HUGE college football fan. He showed me his list of speaking engagements and they were all scheduled so that he could conveniently attend big time games.

Bardo has been on scholarship for four years already and he already graduated from his program and started working towards a graduate degree. Would it be too bad if he finishes grad school on a teaching or a research assistantship?

Not sure if Akron would be allowed to do this. I asked this question some months ago and was told

that it is not allowed. Lest, many, many schools padded their roster in this manner.

But the soccer program giving academic scholly's (as has been sort of confimed on that board) to loosen up athletic bids is OK? I don't get it!

[Quickzips]

The only way I can see this kid on this team is as a walk-on. I doubt we are going to leave ourselves with only one true C on this team by essentially shooing Bardo out the door. I also can't imagine us asking Daryl to give up the scholarship that we just gave him last year. Maybe Candelaria is a backup plan in case Humpty walks away? I dunno, I just don't see this one happening.

Looks like Jacksonville is a more likely destination than Akron?

[Zip Watcher]

If my memory serves me right, this wouldn't be the first player lost to Jacksonville. I wish I could find that team photo. Might have been one of the funniest posts in ZN.O history.

Go Zips.

[GoZips]

sez on his Facebook bio that he hates "F....ing mosquitos".

He'll just love Jacksonville located on the swampy St. John's River.

I spent some time at NAS Jacksonville (on the river) while serving in the US Navy.

Then this photo should infuriate him:

That explains why he's already been given this years Cy Young award after throwing out the season opening first pitch.

Really, why cant the basketball team just name Bardo as a grad assistant? Obviously you couldn't pay him but just cover his academics. Is there a rule i dont know of?

What if KD adopted him, would that free up a scholly?

[Dave in Green]

How about making Bardo a paid moderator on ZN.O and letting him earn his money by deleting all the posts that diss him?

If he were a Moderator, then you'd be dissing him. Poor Mike just can't win...

If a stipend is a normal part of being a G.A., it is not obvious to me how "obviously you couldn't pay him." Are you trying to set up the University for some kind of discrimination lawsuit (against tall slow white guys)?
