hhcmatt Posted March 23, 2017 Report Posted March 23, 2017 I think this is the first offer we've ever put out for a non-Div 1 Juco guy. 6'4" It would seem he shot 47% from 3 his Soph Year (103-216) and 41% his Freshman year (63-151) Quote

Anyone remember if they were? (memory is failing and to lazy to look it up) Quote

Anyone remember if they were? (memory is failing and to lazy to look it up) I should have clarified. We've had tons of Jucos here. I think this is the first previously non-Div 1 offer from Miles.

I took it more as a tough guy role. Deep down that guy is worried, but he is going to act confident. If someone like Duke or Kentucky offered Nana, I would do the same thing. Quote

But, that 27-6 didn't get 'em in the Big Dance. So, perhaps their enthusiasm for 'team' could be a wee bit misplaced when B1G teams only need to be around 18-14. Quote

But guessing their record this year would have been much less impressive playing our schedule is all I am saying. That said, the kid fits a need. Quote

AuroranHusker Posted March 23, 2017 Report Posted March 23, 2017 ... Overall this season, Copeland hit 49.1 percent of his field goals and 86.2 percent of his free throws. League coaches agreed to name Copeland the conference player of the year without even voting. He averaged 18.7 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.2 assists. Marty Levinson, a former Bellevue West and University of Nebraska at Kearney player, now is an assistant coach at Saddleback Community College in suburban Los Angeles. Levinson has seen Copeland’s work in person, as CCSF toppled the defending champions from Saddleback a year ago. “I love Zach’s game,’’ Levinson said Thursday. “He is a true shooting guard who can knock down big shots. He has a great pace to his game, decent size and the ability to handle the ball. And guard the 1, 2 or 3. “He kicked our butt in the state championship game a year ago, and backed it up with another great year.
