Enes Kanter 2010

Enes Kanter stood out from the expensive college hoops recruits for the 2010-11 season for several reasons. A person's size and ability Kanter is naturally going to stand out, of course, but the recruitment of 6-foot-11 Kentucky also had one thing that fellow mega-prospects Kyrie Irving Harrison Barnes and non - professional experience . Turkish big man spent three years playing professionally in his native country, which complicates the question of whether he would be eligible for what would be his first season with the Wildcats. On Thursday, the NCAA finally ruled on the eligibility of Kanter, and declared him permanently ineligible. Although it seems likely that his three years with Turkish club Fenerbahce is almost certainly the cost of the 18 years of age, Kanter's opportunity to meet with the Wildcats, Kentucky, plans to appeal to the Division I Committee on Student-Athlete Reinstatement.
It is unclear how the committee will decide, but most experts still wonder what hoops did coach John Calipari in Kentucky - or anyone else - I think a player with three years of professional experience abroad may be eligible university. Calipari was not the first college coach to recruit the great man of many talents, however. Kanter has committed to the University of Washington in 2009, while attending a school in Simi Valley, California How much Calipari and Washington coach Lorenzo Romar was in Kanter, says Jeff Goodman at Fox Sports, was a good player and be worth it even long-shot possibilities. "Taking a shot at Kanter has been worthwhile for Calipari," Goodman writes. "With the ever larger, projected by many NBA executives as one of the five pick in the upcoming NBA draft, New York is a potential Final Four team. He is a scorer and rebounder dominate the low post. Without it, the Wildcats are just another Top 25 team. "
The Sporting News, Mike DeCourcy says that the decision was unfair Kanter NCAA and college basketball fans alike. "NCAA Basketball is the best place on earth for young players to improve their talents," DeCourcy writes. "U.S. universities and their students benefit greatly from the diversity of students here. But the organization slammed discourage the best international prospects want to play here." At least, it seems likely to discourage them from trying do it like college players.
