Georges Niang Officially Returning for Senior season

[LLCoolCY]

With all the talk of people possibly leaving recently good to see Niang is a Cyclone one more year.
(Not that I expected to go but still Goodman thought it was notable.)

Good for him. Need more 4 year players.

Hopefully morris will be too

Glad to hear it. Hopefully he and everyone else returning feels like there is some unfinished business in front of them.

"Great scoop?" -- Chris Williams
"I guess this is a thing." -- Travis Hines

It's just click bait, people. He was always coming back.

Is Istatenation claiming this breaking news?

 

[DeereClone]

I didn't figure he would leave (I actually don't think he will ever play in the NBA) but this is good to see.

Hopefully he can have a legendary senior season! It is awesome to have such a good guy and player around for 4 years.

I also will not be turning pro this year. Equally shocking.

 

[greatshu]

Pre-season All American?

 

[awd4cy]

Where would he have gone?

Water is wet.

I'm not sure anybody is surprised, but this is definitely good news. :yes:

Glad you're still a 'Clone, Georges :yes:

Obviously, not a huge surprise, but it would be nice if we could avoid the snarky comments about how he'll never play in the NBA. None of us have any idea and he's a good enough player that Jeff Goodman bothered to ask.

Good news though and it is hard to believe that he will be a senior this year. Time really does fly.

"I don't want to go out like that," he said.

The only significant part IMO. Gonna be a hungry hungry georgey next season

I too will be returning as a Cyclone fan next season for my 27th consecutive year.

Was there ever a question he wasn't?

I was hoping you'd graduate or go to a pro team forum to cure our board chemistry issues. Maybe we can bring in some transfers.

No big deal, I just think that it is kind of mean. And for whatever reason, our fans kind of take what Georges does for granted. How many times did I read on here during the season that Georges just wasn't as good this year or that Georges wasn't having a good year. It seems as though the coaches that played against him thought he was pretty damn good and so did the All-American voters.
