    He was probably just as hyped as Lebron and Telfair, all because of that 100 point game.

    Unrealistic expectations, injuries = flame out.

    He tore up his knee and had a colectomy for ulcerative colitis. He's playing overseas I think.

    Did you ever hear how after his freshman year at Memphis, Calipari revoked his scholarship so that he wouldn't turn down the chance at first round money?

    Sucks especially seein how he had great spirit and work ethic. You could really see he would've been special if he stayed healthy.
    Would love to see a comeback, he's only 28.
