mayo and walker

[Michael W Pickens]

Okay from reading this below I can assume if Walker and Mayo go to college 
it will either be UC or Louisville.  I don't know about you guys but I am 
sick of seeing Louisville's name.  This of course is if they want to play 
together.  The question I have for the forum is would you take both of 
them to have only 1 year?  This is the class of 07 so if we could get a 
big man in the class of 06 what a great team that could be.  We would have 
Bright and Banks as Juniors.  Evans will be a junior.  All top 100 
players.  Throw in a big guy this year with a guy like Eaton and that 
could be a championship team.  Soulman would then be a Senior>  Sorry just 
dreaming and typing at the same time.  I'm sure they both are going 
straight to the NBA play ground.

07/07/04: "Louisville, Connecticut, Syracuse, Cincinnati, and West 
Virginia make up the early list for 6'4 Soph O.J.Mayo from Cincinnati 
(North College Hill) OH. Cincinnati, Louisville, and Kentucky were 
mentioned by 6'5 Soph Billy Walker from Cincinnati (North College Hill) 
OH." - HoopScoop

I don't care much about Matta but I just didn't like the way he did this. 
Don't say your not interested in the job if you are and how much you love 
your current university.  That is the ultimate backstab.  I have no 
problem with him taking the job if he doesn't make those stupid 
statements.  However, I do think if he would have waited he could have 
found a better situation or team.   I think it is a really dumb move by 
Matta.  I would have stayed at Xavier till a much better job came down the 
road.  A job in the ACC, SEC or the Big East where basketball is king.

Do you think with Matta as coach at tOSU that UC and tOSU will play now? I 
really don't care to see us playing them though.  With going to the Big 
East I think we will have our hands full.  I also think that Butler will 
now stay with tOSU.  He was considering Xavier so no reason for him not to 
stay at tOSU unless the go on major probation.
