RE: Nate Knight
I think this could be the year we finally make it. CoC and Hofstra will challenge us, but we can do it.

This is quite an honor. There are only 3 non-Power 6 players on the list (Toppin from Dayton, Flynn from San Diego St. and Petrusev from Gonzaga). And it's great publicity for the program. Way to go Nathan!

Nathan and this team needs to be in the tournament. Here's hoping it happens.
There's also Precious Achiuwa from Memphis.

I'm especially amused by this one. The record by Bill Chambers is 51 (maybe it is 50) and has not been approached by anyone in decades --- so Nate would have to tie the record every game, on average, for the rest of the way. If he did that then it would truly be Herculean.

Missing 51 shots would also be a sign of really bad team basketball.


Some would be offensive rebounds

That's true. Just keep banking the ball off the backboard to yourself and rack up the boards. Moses Malone built his reputation on that.

Apparently, someone in big blue Kentucky fan land has floated the rumor on twitter that they are looking at Nathan Knight as a potential grad transfer. I've tried explaining every way I know how that regardless of how bad you want him to come to Lexington, he is out of eligibility.
- I've let them know that 4 years of competition is the max you can play.
- Even grad transfers are subject to the 4 year rule.
- Even if W&M "doesn't have the grad program he is looking for, " still doesn't gain you an extra year.
If his goal was to transfer to a big time P5 program, this past off season would have been the time. With the coaching change, I guarentee he would have gotten a waiver. If he suffered a catastrophic injury in game 4, maybe he could petition for an extra year. Three quarters through his senior season, I see nothing that you could do to gain more eligibility. Andy has a much stronger case to gain an eligible year, and that was denied.

Id say he is a lock to get drafted at this point...later round, but he will get picked up. Why on earth would he go do a grad year even if possible?

The big question is why are you trolling Kentucky fans?

Well, doncha know that Kentucky/SEC/ACC fans don't consider 4 years of CAA play as 4 years of actual "competition"?

Wouldn't you know that 7 hours after explaining why Nate's eligibility is up, they still don't believe me. #fakenews #alternativefacts

Is it trolling if I'm just clarifying how the real world works?

Unbelievable how much he has taken over games. Is it safe to say that hes the best Tribe player ever?

It's safe to say one of the best. IMO, he is certainly the best all around player to come to Williamsburg and his nationally recognized stats back that up. He is a 2-time Abdul Jabbar finalist and has put up numbers on par with NCAA all-timers. But, it's hard for me to say it just yet when there was another tribe player in the house yesterday who is the all time scoring leader and the 1st & only (so far at least) CAA player of the year. He has gone on to be a highly successful pro and is a cornerstone for the upward trajectory of the program. Once Nate gets CAA POY, which I expect after this season, we can revisit this.

My point was that those things seem a lock. Top 3 all-time in 3 different major statistical categories. I guess the tourney performance this year might be the tiebreaker for those on the fence. If we make the final, Id say that he overtakes Marcus.
