He sure loves the attention...His name on twitter is "All Eyes On Me" Really happy we got Henry instead of Diamond.

It's not either/or. I'd take Stone in a heartbeat along with Henry.

Henry's Twitter handle is HENBA13.
Should we be concerned that he's focused only on getting himself to the NBA as quickly as possible and will be a selfish player during his lone season at MU?
Or maybe should we not try to read a whole lot into someone's Twitter name?

Maybe he's going to work hard for that Bachelor of Arts degree

If he is first pick, guaranteed money, gone if he is my kid, school is secondary, an injury could cost him millions going to school.  I see two years.

Speaking of which, guess who finally stopped by the athletic office to pick up his diploma today?

Have some patience, FFS.

Good for Jimmy!  He and Wes are incredible workers and have deserved everything they've gotten.

Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny.  Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.

I feel bad that you tried to psychoanalyze a person strictly based on posts on a message board.

well said.  I think the whole looking up everyone's posts from the past 10 years and trying to pick them apart gets a little tiresome..

Wait, he graduated on time, didn't he?  So it took him 3 1/2 years to pick up his diploma?  And no one thought to get it to him sooner?  Like in 2011, during the NBA lockout when he was around, at least for Madness.

Well, they would actually play minutes against each other.

I dont think Lazar got off the bench once in that finals

Played almost five minutes at the end of Game 5, when Miami led by 24 after three quarters.

Lazar scored the final points of the finals in garbage time.

Yeah, thats why I think Jimmy vs Wes would be way much cooler.

1) Both of them would actually play meaningful minutes
2) They both played with each other for a year at MU
3) It would be highly likely they would spend time defending each other

I was being sarcastic about the not quite as cool I know Lazar flopped as an NBA player, saw next to no minutes, and certainly wasn't gaurding Wade.  Definitely think wes v jimmy would be intense and great publicity for the school.

Not sure if it's been mentioned, but he's announcing November 21st.

According to Zagoria, his father and HD athletic director say no date has been finalized.  Odd to plan to announce two days after the early signing period, but I suppose it would keep his options open.

That may be the case, but Diamond himself tweeted that November 21st was the day.
