A word about O.J. Mayo
Wednesday May 14, 2008
I’ve put my two cents in about the one-and-done rule before, and I know it’s easy to tell David Stern and Myles Brand that the chickens have come home to roost.
But the NCAA isn’t the only party that “would rather have the money the Mayos of the world can generate.” Mayo and the people around him have been bad news since 2005, but Tim Floyd wasn’t about to return the present that was given to him in 2006. AD Mike Garrett didn’t step in, even in the wake of the Reggie Bush mess, to question the recruiting of a very shady player. Mayo was worth quite a bit of money to the Trojans also.
