sioux24/7 Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 I was fairly young when Beasley and Allen were here and I was just wondering what the story was on how we managed to land them? I saw that Allen was a McDonald's All-American as a senior in HS and Beasley was a nominee or something like that. Why can't we get kids like that now? Is it easier to get in as a D2 school grade wise? Quote
UND92,96 Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 As I recall, Beasley was not even considered the jewel of that year's class of juco transfers. Robert Lolar was supposed to have been the star. I think Beasley caught everyone by surprise with how good he ended up being. He had only averaged something like 8 ppg as a juco sophomore. Quote
UNDBB75 Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 Actually it was Randall Herbst who recruited them. Quote
Westside Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 Was Myron Allen the guy that was declared ineligible because he had participated in a FM Beez scrimmage or something? Quote
UND92,96 Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 Was Myron Allen the guy that was declared ineligible because he had participated in a FM Beez scrimmage or something? I think it was some kind of tryout for the Beez. Not sure of the exact details of it. He had only played in a few games for UND before that information came to light. And just like that, his career was over. EDIT: Here's an old thread about it: http://forum.siouxsp...en-eligibility/ Quote
choyt3 Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 Was Myron Allen the guy that was declared ineligible because he had participated in a FM Beez scrimmage or something? Something like that. Maybe "teamsioux" recalls? (APB) He had signed with Kansas, I believe, but couldn't get admitted. At least that is how I remember it. Quote
