Great report!

I think you missed Majok Deng and Deng Deng

what about the ausettes ?

keep up the good work LC !

any of thoes guys got good futures?

i see adam caporns an assistant coachl, he was only young wasnt he? wondered what happened to his NBL career I remember he was pretty good

The following people have been added to the list:

Michael Czepil / Assistant Coach / Nicholls State / Southland
Matt Hancock / Fr / G / Lamar University / Southland
Michael Harper / Fr / G / University of Hawaii - Manoa / Big West

Deng Deng does not join LSU until the 2013/14 season hence why he is not listed.

I believe that Majok Deng is playing for Indian Hills Community College-Ottumwa, an NJCAA school? If this is nto correct, please let me know.

The year of dellavedova, NBA time matty!

Which of those guys have Euro passports or have an international profile? Delly only?

How many college players have we had recently go straight to Europe? Ben Allen was talked up, Aaron Bruce, Anatoly Bose, Ater Majok.

I doubt we will see Ryan Broekhoff back in Australia - I would think he will follow a similar path to Delly. Remember he was one of the last guys cut from the Boomers team for London.

Motum, Delly and Broekhoff are all posssible candidates for an NBA second round draft pick.

Brandt is interesting, he wil be attractive to many Euro teams as he game will suit as he has range beyond the arc also.

Added the following to the OP:

Akinpetide, Femi / RS-Sr / Sacred Heart University / Northeast
Majok, Majok / Jr / F / Ball State University / Mid-American Conference
Sobey, Nathan / Jr / G / University of Wyoming / Mountain West
Donlan, Matt / Fr / G/F / South Dakota State University / Summit League
Mathiang, Mangok / Fr / C / University of Louisville / Big East
Patton, Chris / Fr / F / University of California - Riverside / Big West

And also added another member of the coaching staff:

Wai, Shenton / Team Operations Coordinator / University of Texas - San Antonio / Western Athletic

CBS has released their top 100 DI college players ahead of the 2012-13 season:

Delly and Motum both get a gig at 30 and 76 respectively. Kiwi Steve Adams comes in at 56.

CBS Top 100 Players 2012-13

30. Matthew Dellavedova, 6-4, 190, PG, Sr., Saint Mary's
So underrated. Doesn’t have terrific athleticism, but he really knows how to play. Controls the pace and is deadly in ball-screen situations. One of the elite point guards in the country. -- J.G.

76. Brock Motum: 6-10, 245, PF, Sr., Washington State
Name sounds like a superhero villain. He'll have to play like one in 2012-13, because Wazzu is depleted after all-league point guard Reggie Moore was kicked off the team a few weeks ago. Motum is a guarantee on the block, offensively, but needs a little more brut in his low-post D. -- M.N.

56. Steven Adams, 7-0, 250, C, Fr., Pittsburgh
The New Zealand import has had NBA scouts drooling since he broke out at Adidas Nations two summers ago. Showed flashes of dominance during his stint at Notre Dame Prep, too. -- J.B.

ESPN/USA Today Coaches Poll top 25 pre-season rankings - Teams featuring Aussies in the list are:

2. Louisville (Mathiang)
6. North Carolina State (Vandenberg)

Teams that did not make the top 25 but still received votes were (in order):

- Saint Louis (Ellis)
- Saint Mary's (Dellavedova, Young, Page & Hodgson)
- New Mexico (Bairstow & Greenwood)
- Butler (Aldridge)

Broekhoff has an Euro passport.
Could head there.

Great post and nice to see our Aussie hoopsters showing what they can do at this level. Makes the next generation sit up and take notice, that they have big shoes to fill.

I would love to read some quotes from US College coaches, about how their Aussie imports are travelling, how they see them and what they bring to their program etc...

I look forward to the day Greenwood and Delly are in the back court together for the Boomers

BOISE, Idaho (AP) - Anthony Drmic scored a career-high 34 points and matched a career best with six 3-pointers to lead Boise State to an 89-70 victory over LSU on Friday night, in front of 11,210 fans at Taco Bell Arena.

Derrick Marks scored 19 of his 23 points in the second half and Ryan Watkins had 12 points and a career-high 17 rebounds as the Broncos (7-2) won for the fourth time in five games.

Drmic scored 19 points in the first half, helping Boise State stake a 43-30 lead at intermission. He did not slow down in the second half, shooting 5-for-8 in the period to finish 12-of-18 in the game. He was 6-of-10 from beyond the arc. The sophomore put an exclamation point on his night with an emphatic dunk over LSU's 7-foot-3 center for his final field goal.

Drmic's 34-point performance is the second-highest scoring output in the Mountain West this season, behind Marks' 35 at Creighton, Nov. 28.

The second-year duo is the third set of Boise State teammates to post 30-point games in the same season.

Watkins' double-double is the second of his career and included 10 offensive rebounds. His 17 boards are the most in the Mountain West this season.

Corban Collins scored 19 points for LSU (6-1). Johnny O'Bryant III added 15 points on 6-of-8 shooting but fouled out with 8:59 remaining for the Tigers, who were playing their first road game.

The Broncos ended the first half on a 16-3 run after LSU tied the game at 27 at the 6:17 mark. Kenny Buckner scored all six of his points in a row at the outset of the run. The spurt was capped when Jeff Elorriaga stole the ball with six seconds left and fed Thomas Bropleh in transition for a bucket and foul. The three-point play sent the near-capacity crowd into a frenzy and Boise State into the locker room with plapable momentum.

The game was played in front of the 16th-largest home crowd in Boise State history.

The Broncos reached their largest lead at 60-40 on two free throws by Marks with 13:35 remaining. He finished the night 12-of-12 from the charity stripe. It is his 12th-straight game in double figures, the second longest active streak in the Mountain West (Jamaal Franklin, San Diego State; 29).

Just watched most of the second half of Saint Mary's 70-69 victory over Harvard. Obviously a great comeback win for the Gaels but you gotta feel for a team that leads a game, much of it by double digits, for 39 minutes and 58.9 seconds and still loses!

Mitchell Young was clutch. He'll get a look from a few NBL teams.

Delly gets great wrap on ESPN "best ball screen player in college basketball"

Delly's in a bit of a hole at the moment. Shots aren't dropping. 1-13 today. It's good the dude can pass and makes heady plays.

Been away and back on deck...

Yep, Young came up big down the stretch today!

Delly is not really in a funk, he just had an off scoring night and only missed 3 from long range. The previous day he had a game-high 24 points including 4/6 from downtown to break the All-time SMC 3-pointers made record! But he goes to show the value he adds - he only scores when he needs to and sets others up when he is not scoring...

Worthwhile noting that Devlin at Albany is starting to pick up and although New Mexico beat #8 Cincinnati, they then fell to Ellis' Saint Louis the next gam!

Broekhoff, Motum and Drmic all continued to motor on as well…

Broekhoff wins third Horizon League Player Of The Week after posting 21 and 10 in a win over UIC and 26 and 10 in the win over Milwaukee. He has posted his fifth double double of the year and is second in points per game with 17.0, leads the league in rebounds with 8.3 per game, is second in free-throw percentage with 90.3 and second in 3 point percentage with 47.0. Nationally his 128.0 offensive rating ranks 30th.

Yep - Ryan Broekhoff has picked up his third Horizon League Player of the Week award after some outstanding performances this past week! Here is a link to the announcement:

Valpo's Broekhoff, CSU's Forbes Notch Weekly Awards

Broekhoff carried the Crusaders in both games during the past week, posting 21 points & 10 rebounds in Valpo's win at UIC. In Saturday’s win, Broekhoff knocked down a career-high seven three-pointers as he posted 26 points & 10 rebounds, giving him a Horizon League-leading five double-doubles on the year.

The reigning Horizon League Player of the Year, Broekhoff sits second in the Horizon League with a 17.0 points per game average, leading the League with 8.3 rebounds per game. Broekhoff is second in both free-throw percentage (90.3) and three-point percentage (47.0). Nationally, Broekhoff’s 128.0 offensive rating is 30th, per Ken Pomeroy, while his 67.4 true-shooting percentage is 18th.

Ryan Broekhoff won't get drafted..but will get summer league/camp invites and you'd think with the form he is showing will have a very solid career in good Euro leagues and a future bommer for the next 10 years! Really loved watching him devlop over the last couple of years.

Hopefully the fact his play and performance has gained nationwide exposure can only assist in improving his draft stocks.

There was also on the edge of your seat action between the Lobos and Broncos, with a sick Greenwood leading New Mexico to an overtime win over fellow Emu’s Drmic and Hadziomerovic’s Boise State. Greenwood hit the game tying lay-in to send the game into OT and was a major factor in the extra period in securing the win. (ESPN Recap)

Majok had a massive game in racking up a new career-high 26 points alongside 13 rebounds but it was enough as Ball State lost to Akron. Rowley also had a 10 & 10 double-double for Albany in their win over New Hampshire.

There seems to be a lot of Aussies in College this season who are making minimal to no impact.

Probably only about 4-5 consistently getting good stats based on your reports LC.

How would you rank the top 10 aussies this season and in what order?

@ VP: I'd say there's definitely more than 4-5 who are getting consistently good stats. The guys who are the most dominant statistically and in most cases the primary scoring option on their team would include:

Bandt
Broekhoff
Dellavedova
Heuir
Motum
Hill
Majok
Drmic
Trist
Jois

Then I'd say there are guys who are having solid years with the occasional starring role:

Ellis
Muo
Young
Bairstow
Maynard
Patton
Greenwood
Kernich-Drew

I may have missed some players, but this is more or less how I see it. Obviously some are at stronger schools/conferences than others so you should take that into consideration, but I think this list reveals a pretty decent level of talent/depth in college ranks.

Here is my two cents VP and who the standout Aussies are this season, that are either stars, starters or major contributors off the bench,

Delly, Broekhoff and Motum are the three standouts. One could argue that Broekhoff is having the superior season based on stats, but Motum is regularly playing against stronger opposition compared to the other two. Delly is clearly IMO in the top 5 PG's in D1 college hoops this season.

Next in line behind these three are Drmic, Greenwood & Brandt (who did his ACL and is out for the season). Drmic and Greenwood are probably a season away from being in the same company as the 3 standouts.

With the exception of Brandt, the aforementioned players are all future Boomers IMO.

Those impressing and contributing decent numbers this season as starters are Heuir, Patton, Majok, Hadziomerovic, J Hill, Jois, Maynard and Young who is improving steadily whilst Page is fading out of favour. Other regular starters that have put up some good numbers are Muo, Trist, Naburgs, Prest, McBeath, Hooley, & Rowley.

Those impressing as a 6th man or delivering big minutes off the bench are Ellis, Bairstow & Sobey on decent teams.

Im not convinced about Greenwood as a future Boomer, bit of a tweener without great physical skills, playmaking skills or shooting. Good player, but I think he's going to have to improve some key areas to get to the highest level.

Broekhoff was at his game-winning best yet again today as he scored 5 points in the final minute to inflict Wright state's first lost of conference play. He finished with yet another double-double of 18 & 10.

Have you guys been following which Aussie Freshmen are doing well?

Check out who is ranked #5 NATIONALLY amongst all Div 1 freshmen, according to this article;

http://sportsinreview.com/blog/?p=5812

This guy seems to be underrated, or fly under the radar, or whatever. He never had any AIS assistance, or was selected in any National side, but he has some of the best stats of any Aussie freshman ever (at this point in the season).

Good luck to you, Venky Jois!!

Agree greenwood good but others less well known seem to be contributing greatly

So if we go by Joe Lunardi's Bracketology, and he's usually pretty accurate, then we could see a lot of Aussies and Kiwis in the NCAA final 65.

Based on today's predictions, these teams with Aussies/Kiwis would make it:
Stetson
Charleston Southern
New Mexico
Colorado
Boise St
North Carolina St
Valparaiso
Pittsburgh
St Mary's
Butler
Bryant

Not sure if these are the teams with Aussies/Kiwis:
Louisville
Wyoming
Arizona
Oregon

There are no Aussies on the rosters of Oregon & Arizona, but there are on Wyoming (Sobey) and Louisville (Mathiang).

Should be interesting times ahead!

Interesting compilation ...

Jrod's Top 10 NCAAB Freshmen


http://forum.askthebookie.com/atb-general-discussion/jrods-top-10-ncaab-freshmen-40506.html#post157086

Jrod's Top 10 NCAAB Freshmen
February is near and we have seen plenty of newbies hit the college hoops scene. Time to take a look at my top 10 for the 2012-13 season.

1. Nerlens Noel, F, Kentucky
Does everything on a basketball court, one of the only bright spots in what has otherwise been a average season for the Wildcats. Averaging nearly a double double a night he is a presence on both ends of the floor.

2. Venky Jois, F, Eastern Washington
The Northwest's best kept secret. Jois sadly is on a awful team and can not showcase his talents on a National level but college hoop nuts know who he is. A rebounding machine and the ability to score when he has too.

Catch up results...

Majok Majok has been named MAC Men's Basketball West Division Player of the Week...

Majok averaged 17.0 points and 7.0 rebounds per game last week, while shooting 64.7 percent (11-of-17) from the floor and 85.7 percent (12-of-14) from the free throw line. The junior forward led all players with 21 points and eight rebounds Saturday at Miami, helping Ball State to an 82-62 road win for just their second victory at Millett Hall since 1992. He had 13 of his points and six of his rebounds in the second half to help Ball State open up a close game. Earlier in the week, Majok scored 13 points and grabbed six rebounds against Buffalo despite being limited to a season-low 19 minutes because of foul trouble. Majok has now scored in double figures in five straight MAC games, including two performances with more than 20 points. He is one of 16 players in the nation averaging a double-double for the season at 12.6 points and 10.1 rebounds per game.

ESPN's Jay Bilas: Delly is 4th best passer in college basketball this season.

ESPN: Best passers in college basketball

Another game winning shot from Greenwood as the Lobos defeat Wyoming on the road, 63-59. In addition to the go ahead basket in the final seconds, he also added two clutch FTs after a Wyo turnover and foul. Oh, and he pulled down a game high ten rebounds.

Also, Bairstow had a strong game with a career high 17 points.

Keep in mind that Greenwood is playing with a couple of big time potential NBA level juniors. Williams is projected as a first round pick in 2014. Greenwood doesn't have to shoot like Delly has to on St. Mary's but Greenwood is just as critical to UNM as anyone.

Here is a picture of the game winner: http://www.cbssports.com/collegebasketball/blog/eye-on-college-basketball/21625119/night-court-top-teams-make-statements-in-conference-play

Bairstow and Greenwood were huge as they led New Mexico to a narrow win over Wyoming. Between them they scored 31 points on a sizzling 10/14 shooting! Greenwood was instrumental again down the stretch, scoring 4 points in the last 8 seconds to seal the win for the Lobos.

Muo was also influential down the stretch after nailing a triple for Charleston Southern at the death to force OT. However Muo could not recapture the moment in OT as he narrowly missed two consecutive attempts in the dying seconds to win the game and finishing with 14 points.

Ryan Broekhoff has been named Horizon League player of the week for the third time this season.

Valpo's Broekhoff, Capobianco and WSU's Young Collect Weekly Honors

Broekhoff carried Valparaiso with 22 points and six rebounds in the Crusaders' 25-point win over UIC, knocking down five three-pointers in the first half en route to 19 points. The junior capped the half with a 30-foot three at the horn to cap a personal 9-0 burst to close the half. In Saturday’s win, Broekhoff led five Crusaders in double figures with 15 points, knocking down three three-pointers.

On the year, Broekhoff’s 16.8 points per game ranks second in the League, while his 8.0 rebounds per game is second. Hitting three-pointers at a 45.5 percent clip, Broekhoff is second in the conference. The senior’s 125.3 offensive rating ranks 32nd in the country, per Ken Pomeroy, while his 1.32 points per weighted shot is tied for 19th nationally.

It's Broekhoff's fourth Horizon League Player Of The Week.

Anthony Drmic scored 19 of his game-high 26 points in the second half, leading Boise State to victory over Nevada. During a second-half stretch of nearly 11 minutes, Drmic scored 17 of Boise State's 22 points!

Cameron Bairstow made a good effort in trying to emulate the deeds of Drmic, scoring 16 points including 9 straight in the closing minutes to ensure a win over San Diego State. Over the course of almost 5 minutes, Bairstow went 5/6 from the foul line, drove the lane for a dunk and added a short jumper to hold off San Diego State, which had closed to 52-46 with 7 minutes left to go.

Matthew Dellavedova scored 25 points that included five 3-pointers in leading the Gael's to its 13th win in 14 games over Pepperdine. Delly now has 1,871 career points, just three behind fellow Aussie Daniel Kickert for the all-time Saint Mary's scoring record and will surely pass him in the Gael’s final regular season game against Santa Clara - most likely Delly’s last ever game in McKeon Pavillion.

The regular season play is coming to a conclusion over the next week ahead of the conference tournaments, and now is a good time to take a look at which teams featuring Aussies are in contention to earn bids to the 'Big Dance' otherwise known as the NCAA Tournament.

The only way to guarantee a place in the NCAA Tourney is to essentially win your conference tournament (as long as your conference has an automatic bid). Other than that, teams have to rely on being selected by the NCAA Tournament committee.

Ahead of receiving a potential automatic bid, this is how things are shaping and my Aussie version of ESPN’s "Bubble Watch"... (current national rankings are listed)

Teams with an all but guaranteed invitation without the need to earn an auto-bid through winning their conference tournament:

#10 Louisville (Mathiang)
The Cardinals have been nationally ranked as high as 1 this season, and have never left the top 25 rankings. They also are atop of a strong Big East conference. It will be a good experience for the red-shirting Mathiang.

#14 New Mexico (Bairstow & Greenwood)
The Lobos have been a nationally ranked team for the majority of the season, have some impressive wins over other nationally ranked teams, and have already sewn up the regular season title in the Mountain West Conference - one of the stronger conferences this season. Bairstow and Greenwood are both genuine starters and contributors on a very strong team.

#18 Saint Louis (Ellis)
Saint Louis are a team on a 10-game winning streak and have recently recorded consecutive wins over top 25 ranked teams, including Butler and Virginia Commonwealth. Ellis has been a key impact player and leader in coming off the bench.

#20 Butler (Aldridge)
Butler has been a nationally ranked team for most of the season and that is unlikely to change within the next week unless something goes horribly wrong. Their resume is solid. Aldridge has played a minimal role in coming off the bench.

Teams that are still a chance to receive an invite even if they don’t win their conference title:

North Carolina State (Vandenberg)
This team has some good wins, but an indifferent regular season in a strong conference. They have probably done enough to earn an invite, but if they close out with a couple of wins they can probably book a ticket. Lose them, and they may have to rely on a good tournament showing. Vandenberg has played a minimal role in coming off the bench.

Colorado (Harris-Tunks)
The Buff’s have probably done enough to get an invite as per NCS above. They are in a better position than for the same time last season following their amazing run to win the Pac-12 tournament. Harris-Tunks’ role has reduced as the season has progressed in coming off the bench.

Boise State (Drmic & Hadziomerovic)
The Broncos continue to improve and impress behind some impressive work from Drmic in particular, whilst Hadziomerovic has started alongside him. With 3 games to go against quality opponents in one of the stronger leagues, their destiny is in their hands. Win all three and they could probably punch their ticket to the big dance early…

Saint Mary’s (Dellavedova, Young, Page & Hodgson)
The Gaels are a victim of their weak non-conference schedule. If they played stronger teams outside of WCC play, they may well have already booked a ticket to the big dance. Their only 2 losses in the WCC have been to the #2 ranked Gonzaga and they may need to at least get to the WCC tournament title game to ensure they get an invite. Personally, a lot has to go wrong for the ‘Zag’s for the Gael’s to win the WCC title this year…Delly is one of the best PG’s in college basketball, whilst Young and Page have started all season, with Hodgson playing a minimal role in coming off the bench.

Outside of these teams, all the other teams featuring Aussies will need to win their conference title to have a chance of making the big dance – as long as their conference has an auto-bid. It is worth noting that teams like Ryan Broekhoff's Valparaiso and Mathiang Muo's Charleston Southern are sitting atop of their conference standings and are good chances of succeeding.
