Are WV academics especially poor? Just curious with the WV pick. Don't like Huggins so I enjoy the choice of school.
Devin Ebanks Announces Intentions To Enter League They Pay You To Play Basketball At
April 17, 2010 | ISSUE 46•15
10.16.08 MORGANTOWN, WV—West Virginia Mountaineers forward Devin Ebanks announced his intentions Monday to skip his final two years of college eligibility and join that one super-huge nationwide league where they give you money if you play basketball in it. "My dream has always been to go to the basketball place with all the older people who get paychecks for it," Ebanks said. "Not that I didn't cherish my time at that place with all the rooms and the talking people up front with the thick paper word holders. But that was for free, and I need to get one of those basketball jobs." When asked where he thought he would be selected in the 2010 NBA Draft, Ebanks told reporters, "On the stage part of the room with the men in suits with the ping-pong balls."
Sounds like he wouldn't have made it much further on the academic side, so probably a good decision for him.
This is all a spoof, right? After all, it is from The Onion. LOL.
The "where he thought he would be selected" was the part that I thought was hilarious.
