Chapter 11 Full Scholarship
After playing away against Pittsburgh, the team returned to Connecticut.
After the training class on the same day, Kahong called Tang Tian alone to his office.
"Dang, you may not know how difficult it is for NCAA non-scholarship team members to apply for full scholarships. There is such a story here." Kahon signaled him to sit down and told him the story first.
Tang Tian listened patiently. Kahon could not be so bored that he just asked him to listen to the story.
"There is a student named Jerome who joined the NCAA Division I League team. He trained hard and persisted for four years, but he didn't get a full scholarship in the end. The team gave him 30 seconds of playing time as a compliment in the last game. His story was widely circulated in the NCAA as an inspirational story, but this is also an unwritten rule in the NCAA. Players without scholarships basically won't get playing time."
Tang Tian nodded after hearing this. Kahon was telling him about this story and telling him how special he is.
"Of course, you are not an ordinary player. You have proved your strength, so I have been trying hard. Finally, the school responded to me yesterday. They agreed and you will become the 9th full scholarship winner of the team."
After laying the groundwork, Kahong finally told Tang Tian about the news.
"Thank you, coach, I will work hard to play basketball and live up to your kindness." Tang Tian stood up with a smile and said calmly.
Kahonmo, an old-school coach, just likes to go through formalities. He does this just to think that if he becomes successful in the future, don’t forget his mentor.
Tang Tian didn't care much about human nature. Anyway, he had already achieved his goal of getting the full scholarship.
"Okay, very good." Kahon smiled happily.
"Oh by the way, I also applied for a nutrition package from the school." Kahon suddenly remembered and said.
Nutritional package?
Tang Tian seemed a little confused now.
"I know you have been practicing physical fitness, and the method is good, but in addition to the method, the nutrition must also keep up, so that you can have better results." Kahon continued.
"Thank you, coach." Tang Tian thanked him from the bottom of his heart this time.
Kahon has his old style, but just like he knew before, he is essentially a good coach.
Kahong just told Tang Tian about this news that not long after, someone from the school came to communicate with him and asked him to go to other places to receive scholarships.
As a well-known Connecticut university, Kangda University has invested a lot in scholarships. For example, the full sports scholarship is 50,000 US dollars a year, which is something that many other universities cannot compare with.
Of course, compared with other Connecticut schools, there are quite a lot of schools in most Connecticut schools nationwide, and schools like Duke and Kentucky are probably twice as many.
However, Tang Tian was completely enough to get the 50,000 US dollars.
When he returned to the dormitory, his roommates and the others were all in class, and he then pulled out the system interface.
He glanced at his krypton gold value.
$50,600.
50,000 is the money he just received for the full scholarship, and 600 is his salary as a caddie.
Because he has become a member of the school team and has received a scholarship, 600 is his last caddy salary.
However, the end number is not important, the big head is important.
The 50,000-dollar krypton gold value is enough for him to spend a wave of krypton gold in the mall, and he will directly change to a white skill.
Compared with other levels, the white skills are the least and weakest, but when he first saw the system, he actually made a decision.
Among these white skills, the bouncer (James White) is the most useless. Not to mention in the NCAA, it is probably not easy to use in low-level leagues, so you can play during exhibition games. As for the fake caster (Valejo) and the free throw king (Calderon) are also not available for the time being.
He actually had a goal long ago.
Open three-pointer (Novak): The skill of three-pointer shooter Novak, he can make the owner's open three-pointer shooting percentage reach 97%, but in the event of confrontation, the shooting percentage will plummet to below 30%, and as the physical fitness decreases, the open shooting percentage will also decay from 97%, and all the way down to 50%.
This is a very strange skill, which is exactly matched by Nowak's abilities.
In Novak's most accurate season, his three-point shooting percentage reached 75%, and even his entire career, his three-point shooting percentage exceeded 43%!
This is a very terrifying data. You should know that many top three-point shooters have not exceeded this value in many careers.
In NBA-level games, if you pass 40%, you are already an absolute sharpshooter.
But such a shooter has been wandering almost the whole time in the NBA because he can do nothing except shooting, no defense, no confrontation, no passing, and apart from the opportunities his teammates gave him through tactics, he doesn't even have the ability to run independently.
To put it bluntly, this is a machine that can only shoot, and only shoot at a fixed point.
But for Tang Tian, this is enough.
What he has now happened to be what Novak lacks the most, defense.
With defense and this open shot with almost perfect shots, he can definitely gain a foothold in the NCAA.
Although Kangda has recently ushered in a three-game winning streak, he has gradually begun to be targeted by his opponents, and he is often out of stock during the game.
This is also a completely normal situation. At the beginning, the opponent does not know your ability, so he naturally dare not do this. However, as your playing time increases and your fame increases, the opponent will definitely study you and then target you.
For example, after the game, you can use your statistics to see defensive steals and rebounds, but the score is always 0, which is definitely not normal!
If you don’t know what is normal, you will try it. If you try it, you will find that you really can’t shoot, or if you have basically no shots, then you will naturally appear if you let go.
So the three-point exchange of this empty space is definitely the most effective.
And there is another important point for Tang Tian. Unlike the NBA, players can make money by endorsing and advertising. In the NCAA, players are not allowed to make money in any form, even if the school gives it privately, it is impossible. As long as it is violated, it is likely that they will be kicked out of the league directly.
This is also something that the NCAA has always been criticized. You should know that the league makes more money every year in March, which is more than the NBA playoffs!
But this is the rule, not something that can be controlled by individuals.
So the 50,000 krypton gold value may be the biggest head he can get. In this case, he should choose this open three-pointer.
With this open three-pointer and practicing his body, he is definitely a 3D player.
In the future, basketball is developing faster and faster, this is quite popular and even rarer.
Moreover, he is only 18 years old now, and his body will rise a little longer under normal circumstances. At that time, the space-type number four position and the 3D forward swaying man are completely possible for him.
This wave of krypton gold is definitely a sure profit without losing money.
