Temple vs. Grace IV

[mtnman]

D1 material players usually get recruited by D1 programs. Is he?

[TempleFan4Life]

Grace will no doubt give Temple a pretty good game but the Crusaders will get the win tonight.

 

Temple 74

Grace 59

Ill-conceived or not -- in my opinion -- Parshall is not good enough to play for a D1 school. Has he had any offers? Where? If not, why not? Correct me if I'm wrong.

Opinions are funny things. You also had the opinion that Grace would lose to CCS by 3 last night, but we all can be wrong from time to time. The fact of the matter is that Parshall is good enough to play D I. Just because someone may not be recruited doesn't necessarily mean they do not have the talent to play on that level. Parshall knows more than anyone that if he would have pushed himself earlier in his career, he would be going D I right now. Look at Christian Moody for Kansas. He was recruited by a few mid-major programs but he walked on at Kansas and is now their 6th man and contributes 6 and 4 every night. The question is not whether Parsall will play D I, but does he have the talent to? Of course he does. Remember, there are 317 D I men's basketball teams. I am sure he could fill a roster spot somewhere...

What is this about Parshall being a D1 player?

There is no way he is going to play at a D1 school.

And what does this have to do with the Temple vs Grace game anyway?

 

Temple wins by 12

 

Temple 79

Grace 67

[slamballer]

He might possibly be a bench player somewhere -- maybe like at Quinnipiac or Towson. But it is very unlikely that he would even make it at those schools. But anyway, good luck to JP wherever he might end up.

Oh are we still bringing the CCS prediction up?

I have watched JP play and I think he has some talent -- but to say that he is good enough to play at the next level is yet to be seen. I'm still waiting to see if any school will take an interest in him. Has there been? If there has -- who are they? Is he going to try to walk on somewhere? If he is -- where? Let us know.

 

I would be happy for him if he did make it somewhere, but I really don't think it will be a D1 school. Good luck JP.

i have only talked to a few. bryan, lee, cedarville, cincinati bible, covanent. nothin real big

[slamballer]

From what I've heard Cedarville is a pretty good school.

They play DII in NAIA.

I was reading where they are ranked #18 in NAIA and have a 25-9 record this year. They play Minot State (ND) in the opening game of the NAIA Division II National Tournament on March 9. They're a 16th seed in the tourney.

Parshall just isn't big enough to play in a D1 school. He is a lot like Skogan in that he just doesn't have enough muscle but Parshall is bigger than Skogan. But back to the game, If Grace shoots like they did last night then they should win in double overtime by 6. This will be the matchup of the Floppers.

[Revolution32]

I will end this debate right now. Zach Dragoo (class AA from CSAS) and Keith Galloway(class A from LV) both walked on and played at UTC which is a very good mid-major program and Parshall is better than both of them. Are you seriously saying that programs like Elon, Bethune-Cookman, Belmont, or Gardner Webb wouldn't want Parshall? He is going to put the time and work into making this happen, and the program that gets him will be the better for it.

Hey, genius, that argument doesn't work because Skogen is playing D I. If I were you, I would use another example, maybe someone bigger and more talented than Parshall that isn't playing D I.

 

By the way, what happened to your boys, CCS got whacked, hehe.
