. . . can’t control your interpretation . . .
. . . with the knees I have, that limbo bar better be high . . .
Multiple people on this team will play at the next level, the question is what level is that. You would be shocked at the amount of Cajun players in the last few years that "play at the next level". Give you an example of this, did anyone on this board believe that Tyrus Smith who was kicked off the UL team in 2019 - 2020 was "playing at the next level" would you believe me. Well he is. last I know of he was playing in Denmark. I know that a number of players are given chances and for the most part I would suspect that if they wanted to anyone of the top 8-9 players on the Cajuns roster right now, could play in a professional league somewhere. The question comes down to if they want to or not. PJ Hardy is playing professionally. Obviously guys like Jonathan Stove, Bryce Washington, Jakeenan Gant and Frank Bartley have all played or are playing currently in a professional league somewhere, Jay Wright played professionally.
Not all of these names are guys you suspected could or would play overseas/professionally, but there is a big market for basketball players from the US. The key is what level, for instance, I know at one point Bryce Washington and Frank Bartley were playing in the same league in Canada, Stove is in Finland. Bryce is playing in Isreal now, for a team that was in the Tier 2 league, but they have now moved up to the Premier League because of their results from the previous year. While Bartley is playing in the premier league in Italy.
Believe me if they wanted to (and it would be completely up to them), I could see:
Jordan Brown
Greg Williams
Terrance Lewis
Themus Fulks
Kentrell Garnett
Kobe Julien (injuries not withstanding)
Joe Charles
Michael Thomas
Jalen Dalcourt
And possibly even Isaiah Richards all playing at some level in a professional league and that would be considered the "next level".
NOt only are those guys playing, some have had great success overseas. A couple of years ago, Frank Bartley won the MVP of a league in Spain. Jonathon Stove had to wait awhile to get his chance but now often is his team's leading scorer. Tyren Johnson who last played for Coach Lee has had a successful career overseas. Yes, there is a different market for players overseas. Someone like Brown will make significantly more dollars than some of the guys mentioned.
You guys are missing the one that has been the most successful, Kasey Shepard.
Shawn Long still doing it.he was the Korean BL MVP in 2021.
Jakeenan Gant was last I. France.
Marquetti and Stroman are still playing.
