A 7'1" guy will score ten points at some time next year. Probably against a cupcake that doesn't have anyone over 6'8" but hey it's ten points in a NCAA D1 (BCS level) game.
RECRUITING: Tsalmpouri has signed

Hopefully we get decent coverage on Tsalmpouris while he is playing for the Greek national team this summer.
@ISUMayor32: So excited about Georgios Tsalmpouris joining the Cyclone Family! http://t.co/3bGtFCVwcf
Really like the idea of pairing GT with Clayton Custer for four years. The PG who can distribute and the C who can stroke the long ball. Rinse, and repeat.

ESPN has it up.

Name one 17 year old that doesn't need some development going from HS to college. You're not exactly breaking any news there professor obvious.
Just a comparison. When he played at the Euro U16 tournament he averaged about 5minutes a game for Greece and scored less than a point a game. When Sviatoslav played in the U16 tournament for Ukraine he averaged 25 points a game 8 rebounds and 3 assists.
Sabonis who is going to Gonzaga averaged about 14 and 10.
Giorgos clearly has talent but the doesn't mean he is ready to contribute.
He is no Georgios Papagiannis.

NIce job coming in on page 8, and taking it out of context.
Heck all of our guys need development...its referring to the idea that the kid is stepping in right away. Hes not ready....TTTTHHHHUUUUSSSS.....why i said until CFh says hes playing, he appears to need a lot of work. Try and keep up.
It looks like the FIBA tournament is August 30-September 14, so he won't even arrive here until mid to late September.
That's the main national team. He is most likely playing for a U18 national team.
I don't remember Hoiberg saying Custer is ready, so I guess he's not playing either, according to your logic. A whole lot of assumptions in your post. Sounds like he'll start out coming off the bench, according to that ESPN article. Until Hoiberg says he's not playing, I'll assume he is.
I'm sure the NCAA will find a way to keep him ineligible. Hopefully none of his teammates ever got paid.
Maybe we should squat on the FreeTsalbo.com domain just in case.

Isn't that how his last name is pronounced but shortened? A combo of both. I like it.
Im not expecting a lot from you, considering your history of posts towards me...but ill do my best ok?
POSTERS said he was playing, and were doing starting rosters...not CFH. My post was towards THOSE people. Again..try and keep up.
@ClaytonCuster3: Glad to hear we added Georgios Tsalmpouris to the family today! Future is bright #cyclones
