Czar Perry-El Dorado

[pigsooie1000]

Is he not going to be academically eligible? Saw he scored 40 tonight while Gafford had 12 and was wondering why he doesn't have a bunch of offers, he's had a bunch of huge scoring nights

[Razorod]

Strong rumor is he will have to go the juco route. Maybe one of the recruiting experts can verify or clarify.

[poloprince]

Already signed with a juco school in Mississippi, Itawamba Community College.

[Razorod]

Daryl Macon part II?

[pigsooie1000]

so the assumption is he doesn't have the grades? can't you sign with a D1 after a juco?

That is the point of going JUCO... Get your grades up and then sign with a D1 school.

Yes but if he's not a full academic qualifier, he will have to basically get his associates degree (60 hrs) to sign a D1 scholarship.

[The_Bionic_Pig]

Wouldn't he join Justice in the 2019 class if he were to return???

Then Moses Moody & Gerald Doakes in the 2020 Guard class.

[JIHawg]

He's our next Macon.

If it's academics, why this quote from his coach: "My guard Perry, Division I schools are missing out on Perry. They really are. They're missing out on him"

It may just be our standards. We require a higher ACT score/GPA than Cal Berkley lol

[MountieDawg]

Why would anyone question a 17 or 18 year olds academic eligibility without the facts?  WRONG!!!

[Youngsta71701]

Kid is a bonafide scoring machine. Can jump out the gym also.

If it's not, why sign with a JUCO this early?

Grades, and his dream is to play for Kentucky.

Abilene Christian and Northwestern are his best D1 offers? Unbelieveable. Don't know why UALR and ASU aren't down there knocking on his door. Hoping the best for the kid but if he makes the steep climb and goes to KY Jelly someday, all bets are off.

I just think that's an odd statement for his coach to make.  I don't know one way or the other.  Was just asking a question.

I guess to draw interest for later, or maybe put a feather in his cap, I don't know either. I had read on another board that he was JUCO bound, so I provided the link.

He's signed w/Itawamba juco as already stated ITT. He and Darious Hall were just on my radio segments on The Hog Call just a couple of hours ago. Czar is a no-doubt high-major talent.

Good job today on the air I missed the interview portion though, did you ask him why he felt he wasn't getting the big D1 offers or why he was having to go the JUCO route? Seems like a good kid in every other interview I heard with him.

I'm hesitant to ask questions like that of a kid who is going to juco ... because that can open a can of worms that's usually related to academics so I don't go there. He did say he wanted to use his time in juco to get bigger (stronger), improve his game, and he hopes to play in the SEC (he told me off the air that he would love to land at KY some day), but that's already been made public so I don't mind repeating it here. Asked on the air, he declined to name KY and said playing in the "SEC" is his goal.

I've seen a lot of HS basketball already, and Czar right now is among the Top 6 players in the state, IMO.

[Hawg Red]

Not going to lie, reading that he openly wants to go to Kentucky turns me off. I don't like that coming from an Arkansas boy. His choice, obviously, but good luck, kid.

Maybe I'm just spoiled by these recent recruits, but hearing that makes me lose any interest. I'm done hoping against Kentucky. If a kid wants to go there, go on.

[Mountain Oyster]

heck of a defensive player. If you dribble the ball in front of him and don't protect he will take it away. Actually funny to watch in high school. he is quick as a cat

You go to JUCO for one of two reasons 99% of the time, lack of better offers, or grades/ACT score.
