Corey post draft

I hoped Corey would be drafted in 2nd round and put on a summer league roster.
Draft didn't happen and looks like summer league spot won't either.
But I feel Corey has game enough to find a spot overseas.
Maybe not on one of the top league team roster but could start a bit lower and work his way to top and make enough to be financially secure or on the way to it if he invests right
 
I believe all summer league rosters have been submitted. A little surprised Corey didn't latch on when compared with some of the players on some rosters, but this is a new NBA that values length and shooting ability. Last I heard Corey's agent is looking for a landing spot at a Spanish league team, but that might even be ambitious.

Length, shooting, knowing your role, working hard, not being above the team. People are probably underestimating how much of a turn off it is when nba scouts can google Corey and find that he was late coming back from winter break consecutive years and didn’t work out worth the team over the summer. NBA teams don’t want that headache for a potential 15th man. It’s not worth it for the minimal impact on the court.

Agreed. In order to get into the league you have to be best player on the court in most games. In most games this season he wasn't even top 3 or 4. Corey is an athletic specimen but that will not get you into the league. His best bet is to go overseas and work on his fundamental game and his overall maturity.

Not to sound like an old curmudgeon but in my day it was better.

No redshirting-----you got out in 4 unless you missed a year due to injury

No summer school-----you went home and worked----if you were in Summer School it was because you had an academic issue

No Training Table-----you ate with everyone else

No S&C Coach-----we had one-----he was a Priest----very good at what he did and a wonderful man but he was a faculty member and a priest.

We ran at 6 AM in the offseason in the Field House----done by 7----weight training was expected but you did that on your own. Most HS's have better weight rooms today than we had

Your day wasn't micromanaged for you-----you learned to do that yourself. It was a valuable teaching tool for life.
Summer semester saves the day. Whatever class you put off in the Fall or Winter is easier in the 12 week summer semester (If it's available). I'm there right now killing accounting. During the Fall or Spring it would be killing me.
 
I don't see where a condensed course becomes easier unless the professor treats it a bit more casually.

From my experience at RU and in my current graduate classes summer is WAY more lax due to time constraints and summer mentality.

You usually aren't carrying a full load of classes dividing your attention, and you also don't have other distractions that you would during the fall or spring. I only took a couple of summer seminars while at Rutgers, but I was able to devote a lot more attention to them than I would have if they were held during a standard semester.
 
Taught summer class once at County College of Morris. Hated it. 3 hours four nights a week, students had no time between class sessions to prepare for next class.
