Very interesting story on Harry Froling

Rule 13.02.13

(c)
The individual officially registers, enrolls and attends classes during the certifying institution’s summer term prior to his or her initial full-time enrollment at the certifying institution;

^not so, once you have enrolled in summer school, which happens prior to you actually physically arriving on campus AND you then arrive on campus and start Summer school, as Harry did, you have taken up your scholarship, as far as the NCAA is concerned.

There is no get out at that point.

If Larry Brown left before he had arrived on campus then he could have withdrawn.

Check the NCAA rules.

He would have had the choice to decomitt when Brown announced he was leaving, he chose to stay.

^uninformed - I believe Humphries is leaving Kentucky to turn Pro. Not saying this is a good or bad decision, as it is his decision. But is that what you call sticking it out?

He looked good in his junior stint with Crocs.

Very informed.
Just have nothing to gain!!

Good luck to Harry.

Can I just make an observation - that this article is on Marquette's website, so the have an interest in 'marketing' Harry to the faithfull Marquette followers.

SMU did similar.

Can I suggest we all reserve judgement on Harry's decision and development for two or three years? He's 19 this year!

Because, we've all made excellent life choices/decisions with no regrets. Well I have anyway!

Cheers.

^ so uninformed

Who cares.
Been arrogant for a long time and it caught up with him.
If he doesn't get caught time will be back in Australia.
Needs to talk to Humphries about sticking it out.
Warning to all our boys and girls. WORK HARD.

Nice article. Thanks Aussie

No. Internet/online allows longer articles. Go to an ESPN feature article and compare it to an Aussie (let' say Fox Sports) website and its feature. Hardly any details by the Aussies, not well researched, etc.

Basketball has a NICHE bordering on mainstream market here, whereas aussie rules dosn't exist in US sothat is a poor analogy... lol.

American journalism is a lot more professional.

Great journalism. Australian journalists are lazy (they write 1/20th the length the Yanks do)

Such a stupid comment. For a start, this is a University of Marquette website so the stories aren't written by "beat writers" who are working to strict deadlines. It's written to a specific market and given it's online, has been allowed to run.

Give any Australian journalist the time and space to write a piece like this and it'd be 1000 times better. (I'm not saying it's a bad article or poorly written, just making the point that to say Australian journalists are lazy based on this piece is ignorant).

'Australian journalists are lazy (they write 1/20th the length the Yanks do) and useless'

Nothing like a good generalisation, eh!

In newspapers at least, journalists write to the length they are told or have their copy cut to fit the space available.

And for the record, it can be a darn sight harder to write a tight, well-constructed, informative piece than just basically transcribe an interview, which seems to be what has gone on here.

A nice enough read but really just a simple narrative.

Wonder how the writer would go writing about Aussie rules for a US readership? Might see something a fair bit shorter, I'd suggest.

Wow Larry Brown really did the dirty on the Froling family. Sneaky bastard.

Does anyone know how many minutes Harry can expect in his first season?

Let's hope it's a lot more than he got at SMU

Great journalism. Australian journalists are lazy (they write 1/20th the length the Yanks do) and useless, the best stories re: Aus bball and players are from the Americans.

anyone in the know at norwood able to tell us when the draw will be up by ?
