Da Jules is picking up momentum
The great Julius Hodge is getting some serious attention. ESPN's latest mock draft has him going at 28 to the Spurs, which is great, fantastic, and generally awesome in my opinion. The Sporting News had a great full-page pic of Julius a week or so ago and listed him as the top 5 draftees that are being (wrongly) overlooked this year. The blurb said something like, "Hodge doesn't do anything particularly well - except play basketball." I am happy for him and for NC State's other players, as well. This gives them and the program credibility in the eyes of some.As I've been watching bits of the playoffs, I have been wondering if Ilian and Engin can make it there too. Hubby says it's not likely, but I am holding out the best of hopes. Engin is the next Tony Parker and Ilian is very close to being a Jedi Master of basketball. He's not Ginobili, who just has to be a Jedi - how does he do that stuff in mid-air? He's got to be defying the laws of physics. But I digress - but he is definitely an artist. Next year is going to be great. Fall can't get here fast enough.
