Greg PetersonHOST
Like, what the heck are we going to have out there? Because in their scrimmage against McNeese like a week or two ago, they had Donovan Dent and pretty much none of those other fifth-year guys.
Greg PetersonHOST
I like what I'm seeing on the International Man of Mystery, Michael Ruzich, but...
Greg PetersonHOST
Bryce Dessert is not out there on the floor.
Greg PetersonHOST
Sky Clark is not out there on the floor.
Ryan HammerHOST
It seems like every day they play, it'll be like one or two more players added to the roster.
Ryan HammerHOST
Michael Ruzic looked decent.
Ryan HammerHOST
He played a buck ton.
Ryan HammerHOST
Donovan Dent had a game winner in their game.
CarterHOST
Really quickly, just a box score check right here.
CarterHOST
Michael Ruzic was also very good.
CarterHOST
6-12, 1-3 from three-point range.
CarterHOST
And then we talked about him just a minute ago.
T.J. BrownGUEST
But obviously they only played five scholarship players.
T.J. BrownGUEST
And after the game, Will Wade revealed that one of the players that did play, the one international player that participated, Michael Ruzic, a 7'0" power forward center, he got eligible or got fully cleared by the NCAA three hours earlier at 3:30 Central.
T.J. BrownGUEST
The game was at 6:30 Central.
T.J. BrownGUEST
And Will Wade said that he had two other guys that are also, quote-unquote, "cleared," just that there's some last-minute, like, paperwork, and just didn't wanna risk it.
T.J. BrownGUEST
And that's, again, no bias at all.
T.J. BrownGUEST
It's just in terms of the international players that are 23, 22.
T.J. BrownGUEST
Michael Ruzic, the youngest one, might have the most NBA talent.
T.J. BrownGUEST
Mo Dioubate.
Curtis WilkersonHOST
But, uh, they got big games from, like, Divine Ngwechu was really good.
Curtis WilkersonHOST
Michael Ruzic, uh, from, from one of the international guys who they did get cleared, uh, he looked good.
Curtis WilkersonHOST
He had a double double, I think.
Curtis WilkersonHOST
Modou Diabate played well, too.
Hunt PalmerHOST
Everyone's there.
Hunt PalmerHOST
But the only international player that played was Michael Ruzic.
Hunt PalmerHOST
They did not play Gilad Levy, the big seven foot three guy.
Hunt PalmerHOST
They did not play, uh, Salieu Niang, who is a, a wing player for them.
Hunt PalmerHOST
Um, Donovan Dent, transfer from UCLA.
Hunt PalmerHOST
Abdi Bashir, transfer from K State.
Hunt PalmerHOST
Mo Diabate from Kentucky, and Michael Ruzic, who got cleared yesterday at 3:30 according to Will Wade.
Hunt PalmerHOST
He is from Croatia and played overseas.
Matt MosconaHOST
[laughs] Uh, I can't see it right now.
Matt MosconaHOST
Anyway, Michael Ruzic, uh, European, scored 11.
Matt MosconaHOST
Had 16 rebounds.
Matt MosconaHOST
I mean, you can tell what his role clearly is gonna be, so.
Hunt PalmerHOST
They may not have much post presence out there 'cause I just don't know the status of the international players.
Hunt PalmerHOST
Michael Ruzic is a s- really skilled young player who's 6'10", 6'11".
Hunt PalmerHOST
I don't know if he's eligible.
Hunt PalmerHOST
I don't think he's gonna play.
Curtis WilkersonHOST
He was a drafting stash.
Curtis WilkersonHOST
Michael Ruzic, who I think will get cleared.
Curtis WilkersonHOST
And then Bryce Desert, who's right on the edge with his age and how much money has he made over a long international career.
Curtis WilkersonHOST
I think...
Curtis WilkersonHOST
But, yeah, so that's one domino now that's falling for LSU.
Curtis WilkersonHOST
They're still waiting on Michael Ruzich, Salil Niyang.
Curtis WilkersonHOST
Bryce Desert on the international front, so some really important ones there.
Curtis WilkersonHOST
I think the likelihood, Ruzic, who's, you know, like, Mika's age, he probably gets cleared.
