Per CDK on Card Chron. This is big if true.
BREAKING: Ty-Laur Johnson Eligible
- Thread starter Tenncard_rivals
- Start date
This is great news. Having another PG/ball handler available is huge for this team. They were looking very unbalanced again with only one true PG, but this should help.
He’s a definite step up from Fabio, so that’s helpful in itself
So that excuse is gone, what will it be replaced with? “They ruled him eligible to close to the season and he never caught up.” So back to only having 1 ready point guard.
He’s been practicing with the team since early august, so no.
Just not sure what you’re getting at? Elaborate. Or was it just a facetious post?
Good for Tylaur though. Not holding out too much hope for the season, but this certainly helps. Still think we go like 17-14. Unfortunately. Possibly worse. We’ll see.
The whole point, he’s been practicing, but they still would use it as an excuse. Kinda like the grey cloud excuse last year.
Dont look a gift horse in the mouth. This kid appears to be a baller (we have had luck with New York PGs).
Kenny Payne has finally won one that he needed to win. Maybe better times are ahead!
Well, I can't help it... I'm a Card fan and an optimist. Go Cards!

Just reading some of these ridiculous post it's so obvious some of you need a another team.
the NCAA made a reasonably quick decision and in our favor. that is good news.
Maybe not for overall team situation. Who knows if he can contribute. Hopefully he's getting minutes over Miller but yeah who knows.
But I'll be happy for this kid as his career has a better chance of getting started if he's eligible to play than if he weren't eligible to play.
My core 8 is Skyy, Ty Laur, James, White, Traynor, Glenn, Huntley-Hatfield and Evans. Hopefully a 9th man steps up. The players I mentioned can definitely be something with the right coaching
I’ll be perfectly honest. If Mack were still here it wouldn’t have happened.
Yeah it could be him. Would put BHH at the 4 in spurts
I think we need 4 guys to run the 4/5 spots so Okorafor has to play. I'd expect Evans to have that upside but he figures to pick up a lot of fouls and his lack of beef could be a problem in some matchups.
I think if the overall situation for the program was in a better place we might actually be excited about Okorafor but everything seems so bad right now it's hard to get fired up about perceived projects.
He showed some good stuff last year. Hope his offseason gets him even better.
