Theo Papaloukas?

I usually don't bash the school, but was told that Theo sent a letter to the SJU Admissions office looking to enroll in school and play basketball. The staff was never informed of the letter he wrote, so nothing came of it. Kid might have had a ton of eligibility issues, but he can ball.

Would assume mid to late 90's. Theo rags on a former staff member for never recruiting him.

Not 100% sure, but that would be my guess. Either way, not looking to bash anyone. No idea, the schollie situation, etc. Just found it interesting and was curious if anyone else heard the same. From his age, I'm thinking he would have been on those good late 90's teams.

Nope

So we and 350 other D1 schools bypassed him but he chooses to attack us?

By no way is he attacking us. He just jokes around with a former staff member. Can't even blame the staff as they were never made aware of his letter to Admissions.

Mine was actually said tongue in cheek.  I don't even know what he said.

Definitely one of my favorite non american players. It is too bad he never played in NBA. He would have helped Felipe greatly in 1995-96.
