Moe and the 2012 Draft

Some people/posters are so naive its scary.

The NBA is littered with athletic 6'8 wing players and there are even more who are in the D-League right now.

I wish Moe all the luck and success in the world if he is leaving but this young man is making a mistake to try and enter the league this year.

I agree. The ideal is to stay 1 more year and exponentially increase his value. Hate to see him hanging on like Ebanks.

Anyone know if the press conference will be show anywhere? SNY maybe?

Anyone have any idea on what these gentlemen are referring to?  Can a highly rated recruit be coming?

Thought those two comments were weird too. Hopefully some light is shed on that today at the press conference?

Wouldn't it be cool if Lavin used the press conference to announce a big recruit committing to the program?   Not saying it will happen, just that it would have great pr value.

One of the dumbest things the NCAA has created is their "signing periods". It's thoroughly nice personic.

Hello NCAA Violation

Since he supposedly isn't hiring an agent is it possible that he could announce today and then return later?

Possible if that is the case but unlikely.  When the NCAA pushed up the ultimate decision date to early April they knew what they were doing.

When the date was much later these kids could participate in various pre-draft camps and get a feel on where/if they would be drafted.  Now they simply do not have that choice anymore.  Because by the time those camps come about the decision date will have long since passed.

That is why it would take a real change of heart between now and April 10th for him to back out.

Over the next couple of weeks a handful of kids are going to put themselves in the first round that are not currently projected there. 

Def have to wish Moe the best, he deserves our support.

Just hope he doesn't have to put on a Heat or Celtics uniform. lol

Hello NCAA Violation

LOL! Yeah, that wouldn't be cool.  Could someone else (not Lavin or SJU staff) make the announcement?  Lavin could then simply say "no comment" with a sly grin...

Ill advised move by Moe at this point, he will be eaten alive his rookie season and will get minimal playing time.

He does however have good long-term upside and i wish him success.

It's really too bad today is not a slow day for sports news.  Between Peyton Manning going to the Broncos and the Mets settling the Madoff lawsuit for $162 million, Moe's announcement will not be headline news.

is the Moe presser going to be broadcasted?

Good luck to moe with whatever he chooses. A true Johnny on and off the court! now go kill it in the league kid!

Moose also on the dais.

“@TheBBallDiary: In the press conference room of MSG. It will be steve lavin, moe harkless, and rosa harkless - mother.”

I feel you it would be painful ordering a Harkless shirt from either of those teams

Where can I watch the press conference? Will it be televised?
