Big Beautiful Student Visa Deal?
I'd like to think Jelavic is a lock to be a major contributor, but his ability level is hard to gauge from his pro experience.

With the current state of affairs in college basketball.. I think we're going to see fewer of these so-called eligibility issues!
This is true but we are still Kentucky and they will find a way to crap on us if they can.
Good comparison between Jelavic and Ivisic ... Thanks. It definitely appears Jelavic played better in the ABA, no question.
I expect to see him play at the top of the key possibly a lot. Call it what you want. Garrison will make a great move. We got four great centers and forward. I wonder if Williams can't get some stretch four minutes. Maybe Noah. I was impressed with he's rebounding last year. I think he could be a factor. Especially if our three point shooting is down
I feel BG gets a hard time from a lot of people. I think we have seen so many nba all star big men come through that we are kind of spoiled. BG isn’t Boogie but he is a former burger boy good body great athleticism with a good motor. He makes some goofy decisions sometimes but I expect him to get it together and make a big leap. Most teams in the country would love to have him but I understand where the skepticism comes from.
Mark Pope is the best thing that ever happened to Brandon Garrison. BG has elite skills, athleticism and size, he just needs maturity and coaching. He’s going to get that from Coach Pope and will end up as a first round draft pick next summer.
He is not wrong. All foreign students may be held up. There will be a higher level of scrutiny for all student visa applications and the state department put a pause until they can formalize the new application vetting standards. I think he will get here later than everyone expected. However, once he is here, he should not have eligibility concerns.
If BG can get past the immaturity and inability to control his emotions that seemed to get in the way of his development last year, then he could be a significant contributor.
This guy right here has become this biggest turd in the punch bowl. GTFOH
But the guy he was responding to does in fact….suck . He is nothing but a troll.
Just go back and read the threads when he signed. All foreign players are scrutinized. These people asking do they remember ivisic? Do they remember kanter? Yes he will have to be cleared by the ncaa.
You frequently have posts that make you look so out of touch with the enormous changes that have occurred in CBB. It's like you've been living in a cave for the last decade.
Lol. You love me dude or you wouldn’t follow me around. Is jelavic cleared to play? It’s a yes or no question. Do you have an answer? And until he’s cleared I don’t want to hear “he’s gonna be”. There’s like 8 articles covering this so I didn’t want to get i trouble posting competitor stuff. So here’s a 2 day old yahoo article that says he still isn’t cleared. Idk what you want to see or hear @Son_Of_Saul and the 4 others but the bottom line is he isn’t eligible. It’s in the ncaa hands and as I mentioned before our success rate is low. I’m not saying he won’t play. It could go through smooth but unless he’s played until 21 in Croatia for minimal money I don’t trust the ncaa. And these kids from Croatia are easy targets because they are paid to play starting at very young age.
It’s the friggin ncaa eligibility process for overseas players. Idk how they are working around the student visa for NIL but the ncaa has to clear jelavic.
