Along with being told that Kloof would not qualify, I was also told that the Dutch players are a back-up plan to some other Bonnie targets. It would seem the class is filling up, so they may not be needed. I guess it depends on who stays and who splits. Who told you this info? What would be the reason Kloof wouldn't qualify?

My source is a basketball coach. Not a college coach, but one with ties to HS, AAU and recruiting. I don’t think his info is coming from anyone on the SBU staff. I think it is coming from a coach on another staff that looked into Kloof, but decided not to pursue because of his qualifying issues.
He didn’t go into tons of specifics, but I think the gist is that Kloof started out at a JC and only completed one year. The NCAA qualification for international players can be quite complicated so international players can go to JC for an AA to become eligible at a 4-year. Clearly, Kloof didn’t stick around long enough to obtain his AA, so getting qualified becomes more complicated.
Taking a complete stab in the dark, I’d guess IF Kloof could go back and re-submit his paperwork to the NCAA that would show he was originally eligible prior to enrolling at Guilford Tech CC, he could still be cleared. But that’s a complicated process, and the fact that he went to school in Suriname and is now an Atlantic ocean away from any of his academic records probably wouldn’t help. Of course, that theory assumes that Kloof was eligible under NCAA guidelines to start with.
I wonder how much interest the coaches have in Kloof if White signs.

I've been trying to stay out of alot of the current discussions on the board, since I like 99.9999% of the posters really do not know what is going on behind the scenes, but I am curious about a few things: where does CARL PORTER stand right now? Didn't CARL verbal to BONA? Will some say that since the staff signed JOHNSON they no longer are interested in CARL? If that is the arguement why are not more posters up in arms since isn't this the same some think happened to TRA'VAUGHN? A few weeks ago people were screaming that DREXEL was beating the BONA staff to 3 recruits, well if TRA is going to TOWSON wouldn't he be the third rumored recruit the staff was at one time looking at that is now going to TOWSON(WHITE, WILL ADAMS, & MARCUS DAMAS)? Darn that CAA!!
