Stauskas has chosen an agent?
I don't know the voracity [sic] of that site, but that is one horribly-written article.
It's basically French in some parts of the country.

what's the point of the last half of the article if his source is saying that he is going to the draft? Whether college is the greatest four years of your life and having "maturity issues" (I think that's what he was trying to say) is a moot issue.
The Stauskas family has been working towards this moment (NBA) for years. It's well deserved, and while we want him to win us more Big Ten championships and Final Fours, can't deny the kid his due.
The most telling sign (apart from the moment of unguarded honesty by Stauskas' dad a few months back) was when Beilein was asked about the scholarship situation being 1 above the limit with the new class coming in and, without missing a beat, Beilein deadpanned "It'll work itself out".
There's a reason coach isn't worried about the scholarship thing and is on the hunt for impact transfer players this season.
We all sorta knew this moment was coming. I am very thankful we had the oppotunity to watch him wear the Michigan uniform. What an amazing player. I hope he tears it up in the league.
Glad he went with JBart's dad(if true). Interesting about the summer snub. I LOL'd when I read he was snubbed for not changing his body in prep for the NBA
They might want to rethink their position. Sounds like the decision burned them pretty good in competition too. Good.
Aside from the obvious improvement in his muscle tone, the look on the face too. Boy...man. He's all grownz up now.
Seeing pictures from last year, he looks like 5 years younger. Between the shorter hair-do and thr added muscle he looked like a totally different guy. Good luck in the league young canadian

Canadians must be the only people who get less tan in the "after" photo.
it when this information shows up on a site that wasn't created by a high school student...
if it was Bartelstein however i would be surprised if he has made "official" contact yet. If he had, there would be no purpose in getting the evaluation by the Undergraduate Evaluation Committee. It makes much more sense to wait a few days for the evaluation to come back.
My guess is the article is a bit early and some "unofficial" and within whatever the rules allow type contact has taken place in order to prepare for what probably we happen.
Who will replace his three-point shooting?
will step up. He's shown the capability all year and although I think Irvin has an improved year, Caris will be the go-to guy.
Not just his three point shooting, his swag.
"I can tell you for a fact he has made no decision on (entering the NBA Draft)" - Paul Stauskas on his son's decision.

Stauskas received feedback from NBA advisory board yesterday, but has to discuss w/ his family. Decision announced in near future.

So your saying theres a chance??
you're*
UM Hoops has a post up on this, saying the decision could come early next week.
April 10th, 2014 at 10:07 AM ^
His father also said this morning that he has not chosen an agent.

I'm confused. Will this agent help Nik select his upcoming Junior class schedule or was he retained to help him find suitable off-campus housing? Or perhaps he was secured to help NIk find gainful employment this summer.
Why else would he need one?
ESPN just said he entered the draft. Source told Jeff Goodman

He just denied all claims being made. I have no idea how to embed. sorry!
Just wanted to reiterate that any reports about my future intenions are FALSE! I have NOT made ANY decisions on my future yet!
— Nik Stauskas (@NStauskas11) April 10, 2014but what does Nik Stauskas really know about what Nik Stauskas is thinking? I'm unconvinced until I hear from a more reliable source
Nik needs to realize it.
Which is not a bad concept--I might file on behalf of Frank Kaminski and Yogi Farrell.
April 10th, 2014 at 10:09 AM ^
"Stauskas showed that he was far more than just a spot-up shooter this year."
Glad the WWL got that into the article. At this point it's almost self-parody.
ESPN just tweeted 1m ago that he's entering the draft
Posters used to know things before ESPN. -sigh- This news is at least 5 minutes old and still, no Thread....

Ah the media, how I loathe thee.
Remember when Freep had the full on Rich Rod boner going and ran with a headline that he was fired they day before he was actually fired?

Why is this a secret and mysterious? We all know He gone.
I suck

You deserve one for effort and one for admitting defeat.
