Of course, we knew he wouldn't land at SMU, but......

He will never play college basketball. He's hitting all the usual suspects (Larry Brown, Mark Gottfried, etc.).

[ADavisTheGOAT]

He should just sign that overseas contract already.

[King Kong]

I wish he could have got eligible here

[husker71]

He will help somebody if allowed to play that is for sure   there is some talent there

Don't forget about Coach Mike.

[ShadowHawg]

Don't forget about Coach Mike.

Hadn't this time around which is what the point of the comment was. Only the sleaziest are still trying to get this kid eligible. Coach Mike let him go a long time ago.

Why don't you go back to your Missouri board anyway? Oh yeah, that's because they suck!

The 40 Year Old Freshmen?

[HOGINTENNESSEE]

This is the 6'8+ 240+ Guy my favorite poster have been asking for

[mizzouman]

Guy is raw but has a lot of upside.  Playing overseas or in the Dev league will not make him better.  This is a kid who, in my opinion, should do what it takes to get into college and get his game together.  If he goes pro now, he'll never make it.

Obviously test scores are not his problem or he could have at least gone juco. He needs to go pro somewhere because he ain't gonna get eligible if the cheaters at SMU can't get the job done.

[Hogimus Prime]

If it was just a test score he'd be a Razorback.

[rzrbackramsfan]

He's secretly a woman.

Well he is still visiting college's like NC State. I'm not sure of his situation, but it's close enough that teams keep paying for him to visit.

[Hawg Red]

Kapita apparently decommitted from SMU about 3 months ago, per an SMU fan on Reddit.

Shadow is the perfect name for you, since you're in the dark about everything.

I predict bitterness and gloom for you this basketball season as the program takes a big step forward toward both immediate and sustained success.

I seriously doubt you will be here cheering them on as it happens. Maybe Mizzou can get to .500 this year for you. :razorback:

It appears you are more than slightly confused about a number of things.

From one slime ball coach to another.

Glad this is someone else's problem. He's gonna be a 30 year old freshman by the time NCAA gets this figured out. He should just go pro, international ball or whatever.

RALEIGH — NC State is at the mercy of the NCAA and that's going to affect how it prepares for the upcoming season.
Two of the Wolfpack's potential rotation players —  freshmen Omer Yurtseven and Ted Kapita — have yet to be cleared for the 2016-17 campaign and Mark Gottfried is readying his team for battle under the assumption that they may not be eligible to play.
"We've spent a lot of time in practice with those guys apart from the five or six that we're getting ready to use," Gottfried said of Yurtseven and Kapita. "We've also spent some time with those guys in the mix with our top guys because both Omer and Ted are two of our top seven or eight players."

Really unfortunate for those kids. I really liked Kapita and he looked so good as a recruit and potential Hog baller. I sure hope he can still forge a basketball career and find a way to get an education.

And if Nolan wouldn't have left we would have signed Andre Iguodola....

[hoglady]

You would have thought the NCAA could have gotten this figured out one way or another by now.
Looks like a situation just bogged down in a quagmire of red tape.
Obviously, Kapita wants to play college ball instead of going overseas - but that may not ever happen.

[HOGINTENNESSEE]

We did sign Andre. However we release him

[Amityvillehogger]

Hate it for the kids that get wrapped up in this NCAA mess. Gotta take care of business in the classroom. Rid yourself of the potentials.
