How many scholarships do we have for 2013?

[sackman]

With Cain leaving, I think that leaves us with two. Am I right?

[mattrob]

It should only be 1. There are 2 open slots right now, but they've signed 5 and only graduate 4 seniors.

I believe Sabbatino Chen will give up his scholarship after this season giving us 2.

I believe Sabbatino Chen will give up his scholarship after this season giving us 2.

Why?

I believe Sabbatino Chen will give up his scholarship after this season giving us 2.

Wasn't he given Cain's scholarship. I believe we have one.

Why?

He was only given a scholarship this year because it was available. He earned it, but it was a short-term agreement.

That's too bad. I think he is a good team player to come off the bench.

Sorry, this is an awful explanation.

There are currently 11 scholarship players, I believe (Chen may be 12). With 4 graduating seniors, and 5 incoming freshman, they'll have 13 on scholarship next year, including Chen (who I expect to be on scholarship next year, regardless of his status this year). Chen will then be the only graduating senior after the 12-13 season, leaving one open scholarship for the 2013 class. This is, of course, barring a surprise signing this spring (we have room for one more next year) or additional attrition over the next 18-24 months.

I think Chen will keep the scholarship next year. If it goes elsewhere (an incoming freshman, transfer, etc.), the staff loses their only 2013 scholarship, and any shot at Hamilton, Thomas, Jones, Hopkins, etc. Chen should benefit by being the only junior on the team right now.

I went to the roster and did a double-check. http://www.allbuffs.com/showthread.php/62823-2011-Colorado-Basketball-Roster-amp-Schedule

Freshman: 5 Incoming
Sophomores: 2 (Ski and Mayor)
Juniors:5 (Sharpe, Roberson, Adams, Tunks, Mills)
Seniors: (Chen)**

I count 12 with Chen being the possible 13th. And of course attrition.

[aNIKin]

I expect some attrition

tunks sharpe and mills?

[btbuff]

Another question. What are the chances that Tunks, Adams or Sharpe don't utilize their redshirt year and graduate in four years? I know Sharpe isn't much of an academic but I have no clue about Tunks or Adams.

lets just hope it is not ski, dre or the mayor.

Tunks and Adams have both redshirted. Mills has not.

Badly worded on my part. What is the chance that Tunks, Sharpe, or Adams don't use every year of eligibility on their undergraduate degree?
