I don't hate the guy.  He's a great Hog, and a needed contributor.  I despise that he does not understand his role as a complimentary player puts an absolute ceiling on this team.

What one and done has Baylor ever gotten?

What if the NCAA would allow paying players after they stayed four years?

Of course, the nba pays more.

If you are Arkansas, you can always guarantee that they have a job here in Arkansas if they play for the Hogs. I'm talking of post performance pay, paying athletes after they graduate?

Fishy, dreamy, unethical?

So, the only player this sports agency signed was Gary Ervin?

I think they had a recent commit from John Wall but he decommitted.  I know they hired his AAU coach for some phony job (Dwon Clifton was his name) to try and get him to come.  I could have sworn that Wall was a Baylor lean who backed off.

Though John Wall has Memphis as his number 1.

Yeah, they were on a few...like he said they hired his AAU coach. Wall visited Baylor last weekend then got home & named Memphis as his leader (I believe)

That is correct... Baylor hired Wall's AAU coach I would imagine in an attempt to get Wall but he never actually committed to them.  He did visit Baylor last weekend and then named Memphis #1, just after Demarcus Cousins verbelled to Memphis.

That is one sick class if they get all 3...Is Tyreke Evans definitely going pro?

The short answer is no;  it's illegal for a program to do what player agents do via the AAU coaches.   The NCAA is fairly strict about coach-to-coach interactions.

No cause, ever, in the history of all mankind, has produced more cold-blooded tyrants, more slaughtered innocents, and more orphans than socialism with power. It surpassed, exponentially, all other systems of production in turning out the dead. The bodies are all around us. And here is the problem: No one talks about them. No one honors them. No one does penance for them. No one has committed suicide for having been an apologist for those who did this to them. No one pays for them. No one is hunted down to account for them. It is exactly what Solzhenitsyn foresaw in The Gulag Archipelago: "No, no one would have to answer. No one would be looked into." Until that happens, there is no "after socialism."

Ya he is almost def gone at the end of the year and that is what most people think John Wall is waiting on... Reke is somewhere between 15 and 20 in most mock drafts but a deep run will change that.  Either way Memphis will be ok because they keep Tyreke or get John Wall.  I have heard though that Wall may committ after the CUSA tournament.
