Good luck to David. We will always have the great memory of him turning into David Three-bek to beat VCU.
We’ll always have, “The David Tubek Game!” from Gary Cohen.
He went 3/3 from 3 in that OT win over VCU. 8/31 the rest of his career at The Hall over 2 seasons.

Most of the team would be better off down a level.
What exactly will his agent be showing potential suitors? Bro shouldn’t get a dime
I guess the issue with David is that he didn’t quite live up to Shaheen’s demands for Defense and IQ was lacking. Showed some flashes. Good luck to him.
Simply not ready for this level. Has some physical tools but needs to play at a midmajor.
Our woeful 7-26, 2-18 team was built with guys that fit his profile of “potential” and “maybe” on the cheap that never materialized and it didn’t work.
Yup, there’s a difference in having physical tools and then having a feel for the game and ability to learn. You look at a guy like Dre Davis yesterday that made the most of his physical abilities and always looks like he is in the right place on the court and knows what he’s doing. Tubek to me floated around a lot as didn’t get that part.
guys like him were often on rosters and never played. he probably had a better soph yr than gordon winchester. not saying he was more than others above suggest. but other guys i am thinking of never played important minutes. 11th and 12th guys on the depth chart.
So you can never tell what happens at the next destination. He's provably going to a solid school, but put him at a school like Wagner or Monmouth and you wonder what that can look like with his physical attributes. Can they pay $100,000 or more at those places? Is he worth it?
Was he another case of Sha and the coaching staff's perception of what a player could be compared to the reality of his skillset?
I mean, for your last paragraph, go read the thread after he committed. Especially because he was someone Memphis took and then recruited over it seems.
It seems every player we had was recruited over or not brought back. What a group!!! The old saying you get what you pay for never more true.
Happens a lot, doesn't it? I've always been a big Willard booster, but he and his staffs missed the boat on lots of kids. (This board, too, should be much more reserved about incomings until they hit the floor in November.)
More like a headhunter. But if he's offered 5 Grand by a mid low-major and an agent can get him 7 grand, he's worth it.
I would love to know how an “agent” sells a kid like Tubek. He doesn’t have an advisor/parent who can get him what he’s likely going to get from some mid or low major, whether it’s a scholarship or the equivalent of the usually stipend?
I’m sure it’s mutual. Kid didn’t get burn on a horrible team. He clearly wasn’t what they thought he would be when his commitment was met with lots of optimism by our insiders via the staff.
Helps having a dad who was his coach. Learned all the right stuff at an early age.
