Good (meaning accurate) comments from Kane and Cathrall on Kostas.

From what I have heard school just wasn't "his thing" and there are probably a number of reasons for that. One might be that the educational system in Greece is/was the lowest rated in Europe (according to sources I found when he was redshirted).Then there is the language barrier, sometimes you don't like something at which you aren't good or at least adequate.
From the quotes (in another article) by a "former staffer, we now know that Archie brought him here on a 2/3 year plan and that is all the time Kostas planned on staying. There was never an intention of getting a degree. Nor did Kostas grow up watching college basketball and dream of playing in the NCAA tournament.

He must not have burned all his bridges at Dayton or he wouldn't have been here last week working the basketball camp.
I hope his name is called tonight (I think it will be) and hope he makes it.
