I think the move is ok for jennings cause he can replace roko-leni ukic. I question jennings ability to play defense against guys playing the sg position so he'll basically only be able to guard point guards. Roma could be a good fit for him

Haha I'm not hoping the kid dies or anything, I just don't want him killin it overseas and giving future HS'er the impression they can do the same. I love college ball and want the best players to play in college, not overseas.

Re: Jennings to play for Virtus Roma in Italy

Still bothers me that Jennings couldn't even qualify for Arizona since the requirements for a student athlete to qualify is something absurd like getting a 600 on the SAT. All you need to do is sign your name and answer a couple questions right... Whatever, good luck in Europe.

Re: Jennings to play for Virtus Roma in Italy

Roma is playing uptempo b-ball and is a good fit for him. But he will have to face the strong defenses night in and night out and that's where Jennings will make or break his season.

Re: Jennings to play for Virtus Roma in Italy

Ohh that's some good news :). In Europe he will learn how to be better defender and most importantly he will increase his playmaking skills and learn a good position play and a teamwork. But he will get used to european three point line which is not good in further NBA playing, but useful for Olympics, etc. :]
