Jerome Randle Reportedly To Play In Turkey

by Avinash Kunnath on Jul 28, 2010 4:40 PM PDT in California Golden Bears Men's Basketball

At least I think they're calling him the Super Squirt.

Former Cal star Jerome Randle has reached an agreement to sign with a professional basketball team team in Turkey, according to Turkbasket.com. Randle will sign with Petkim Aliaga, which begins its season in mid-October.

The headline of the article refers to Randle as Super Squirt, and we assume it was an accurate translation.

...

Randle reportedly was considering signing with Partizan, a Serbian team, but apparently has decided instead to sign with the team in Turkey.

At least Randle will have Patrick Christopher nearby, as he also has signed with a Turkish team for the next season. I can't imagine this is where Randle wanted to end up, but I assume he'll use this as an opportunity to develop himself for another league audition for next summer. And the money in Europe is way better than the money in the D-League.

Good luck Jerome! Hopefully we'll see you soon enough.

Rather surprised by this

As an ’SC fan, I absolutely hated the guy – thought he was just a punk. However, he had some skills. At the very least, Italy and Spain seemed like more likely destinations.

As an SC fan you should know the meaning of punk.

You have had enough of them on your football teams.
