Why not more foreign basketball player's?

Maybe it's because of Dobras, but I always favor foreign guys.

There are at least three pools for recruiting:

1) high school / prep school

2) Juco

3) Foreign countries

Since Dobras, and now the new guy (it's too early to spell foreign names), I can't recall another.

Georgia Tech had that center from Australia... And I think a lot of the successful, smaller programs have foreign players on their team.

I mean, just look at our tennis team. And we've done really well... It's a different sport, I know. But I don't think Juco, Juco and more Juco is that much better.

I just want USF to WIN; I'm so sick of waiting and waiting...

Don't you remember the guy we signed from Israel who later was disqualified for being considered a professional by the NCAA? That happened to FSU this year, but they got it reversed after appealing.

What did Eddie Munster do?  ---I do not keep up with Lizard goings-on.

They keep having foreign players leave them to go play Pro basketball in Europe.
