osubeavers.com/news/2019/8/13/roman-silva-joins-mens-basketball-program.aspx?path=mbballIt says he is not eligible this year and has three to play two. I thought the O-live article said he had two to play two and was eligible this year. I can't quite figure out his path. It says he graduated HS in 2016 with a 4.5 gpa. (i'm 56, I have no idea how you get better than a 4.0) The O-live article also said he played for a short time with UTEP. He is not in any of UTEP's past rosters. Then OSU says he attended a prep school in 17-18. Did he take a gap year in 16-17? Was that the time at UTEP? Who knows?

From the article: "Silva is eligible for the 2019-20 season and will have three years to complete two seasons." |

Some schools have a grading system where you are giving bonus gpa points for acing honors classes, etc. 4.5 is usually the top in this method of metrics. However you measure it, that isn't too shabby  |

No big deal. I got a 4.4 my freshman year ... 2.4 first semester, 2.0 second semester. Obviously I spent far too much time studying my first semester, before I learned proper time management (and learned about $.99 sixpacks of National Bohemian Beer, with the racetrack oval from the Land of Pleasant Living).

Shame on you... a large portion of a previous thread on s%#tty beers and not a mention of your "NatBo" purchases! It would have topped that list! |

Actually, National Boh was a microbrew at the time. Limited production, limited regional distribution, in the Baltimore area. It was ahead of its time.
