So, why haven't we seen BOLANGA listed on the roster at GOBONNIES.COM? why haven't we read SCHMIDT's comments on BOLANGA? why no announcements from national recruiting sites(Verbal Commits, Jon Rothstein, etc) "COACH", I truly hope you and FRANCIS are correct, just asking.

Fair questions to ask. There’s a lot more paperwork with international players. I’m thinking those are still processing and pending which is why you won’t see anything official from the school website until they are filed

I have to ask what I hope is a really stupid question that others may be hinting at - are we sure this isn’t an elaborate hoax? I realize just about everything about the NCAA has changed, but how is someone who has played two years of professional basketball eligible to start playing college hoops? I don’t claim to be aware of every recent rule change, but I haven’t heard of a change that would allow this. For decades, if a kid won $10 at a church fair in a tiddlywinks game, the NCAA would rule him ineligible to play anything in college since he wasn’t an amateur athlete anymore. This has changed to allow someone who has earned a living playing basketball for two years to play college hoops?
And the guy’s last name - a clue to what’s going on? I know there’s the photo in the original post, but photoshop? From the French team roster, it sure appears the guy’s a player but might someone have noted him and figured he’d be the perfect subject of a joke on some crazy college hoops fans? And who’s crazier than Bona fans?
If it is a hoax, I fell hook, line, etc., along with others and the OTH. Part of me wants to believe that if it is a joke, someone official with the school would have exposed it by now, particularly once the OTH jumped on the story. So I really hope I am being overly suspicious, but I gotta wonder and ask.

Armon Jovic has Noah listed in his top 10 freshman. Let it play out.

Ceharv is right to question his amature status. We were in trouble before over a welding degree.

I get the fact that we want to put the best squad on the court as possible but there is only one ball and 13 guys who were recruited - not sure how this plays out but someone is going to be really angry about being recruited over and not given a chance. I know life is tough but in the old days Schmidt would have his 7 guys and everyone knew where they stood, today 🤷🏻♂️

Perhaps the deep state is involved? I mean the deep state is invading our schools, bedrooms, our bodies, books, elections, internet, AI, and the media. Maybe we should go off grid for a while.
