Just saw on Jim Rome is burning where Robertson said something to this extent:

 

"If Mayo did accept anything it's not hs fault. When you have a kid travelling around playing AAU people are going to try and influence him. Also the "one and done" rule probably contributes something to it considering he knows he will be out of college and not have to worry about it.I'm surprised we don't hear about more kids doing this."

 

Now that's not a direct quote put pretty close summary of what he said. What doesn everyone think?

The top 5-10 kids in a recruiting class are the ones dealing with agents/runners. Out to about the top 30 it's more about funneling money in to their summer AAU program. After that if any money is involved, it's not much at all.

 

If your favorite school consistently gets the best kids from one of the top AAU programs, there is money involved...

He hates AAU and the one and done rule. He's not alone w/ that.

Wasn't it you who had posted that Kevin Durant's AAU team/program received a 6 figure donation from a Texas alum?

He hates pretty much everything...

 

:ylsuper:The Big O does seem to be a very bitter and an angry sort of guy. Why is that? Does anyone really know? I know he feels slighted in alot of ways and that he may have been blackballed from TV for his view but it seems with time he may have mellowed by now but whenever he speaks you still hear all of this negativity. Too bad because he is still one of the 2 or 3 best players that I ever witnessed playing the game.

Let's see....Him being offered anything is not his fault. Him ACCEPTING anything is 100% his fault. Maybe OJ needs to learn the word "NO"
