Personally, and I don't know if I'm in the minority, I think this is Purvis' last year. He was quoted as saying he is working towards finishing all his credits so he can graduate in the spring (he's probably entering his senior year credit-wise, and usually when a player says that it's an indication they are planning on leaving) and he's going to be 22 years old by the time the season is over. We saw the player he could be in the last 10 or so games of the season and I expect (hope for) him to build off that for this upcoming season.But he wouldn't he have to beat out Purvis to start? Purvis also has 2 years of eligibility.
I thought he would be better because he had the same surgery that ARod had and look what ARod is doing at age 40 (and he blasted a 426 foot homer last night). Omar is half his age but maybe now that he has had a year he will be better.
Yeah, NBA or Europe. I probably am in the minority, and probably wrong, too.tcf,
Even if Purvis graduates. he would have one more year of eligibility. Are you suggesting he leave early for the NBA? Do any of you guys think that Purvis has a handle for a guard that is at the NBA level? Last year he could not put more than two dribbles on the floor against college defenders. He is also not a good enough shooter to be a stationary spot up shooter. Perhaps he can play some Euroball like Daniels for a few years but I don't see him as ready for NBA play just yet.
The surgery sure didn't do anything for A-Rod's ability to run. He's worse now than he was before the surgery.
