Well this adds a new wrinkle and tells you even some players feel the sting of talent leaving the state.
Also weekly reminder: Don't tweet at recruits!
Kam the man! Also wishing this article was about three Hokies instead of one, but every player is not as smart as Kam.
Q and A with Hawks guard Malcolm Delaney: http://www.ajc.com/news/sports/basketball/q-and-a-with-hawks-guard-malco...
Q. You say it was a long journey to the NBA. Can you describe the process of not being drafted, going overseas and now getting to the NBA? Did you ever get down that you would get this chance?
A. No. After my senior year in college, I thought I deserved to be drafted but I wasn't. I had a good agent. We came up with a plan for 3-4 years. He said we want teams to come after us. We don't want to chase the NBA. After my third year overseas, I started seeing it. I had an opportunity from Houston but my team didn't let me out (of contract). The plan started working. I got more comfortable with it and started following the plan.

# | "Dependable" DT Woody Baron Ready to Seize His Senior Season, Build on Family Legacy That is what the skill of hat making is called and the haberdashery has come back recently with the rise in hipsters wearing fedoras. Not really any other hats, mainly fedoras.
Yeah, the BR Reporter must be pissed he can't get the Lambo again this weekend. Had to get some page hits this week.
Classic journalistic example of throwing shit at the wall in hopes something sticks. You see it with every job opening out there and it gets tiring
Everyone like to represent the state out of state I've had this convo multiple times but we still have to get a few! pic.twitter.com/9oO5vHdNSA— Still Unknown (@_JahqueAlleyne) July 9, 2016
Landon and Harvard.... not your average joe.....
Do you think the change is a personnel thing, having to change because it became too predictable, or a response to changes in the game?
Can't embed on iPad, but he just threw his own info out.
Yes...I have the exact same thoughts!
No because they're desperately trying to fundraise and the easiest way to undermine those efforts is to allow the thought that the guy asking for the money is about to bolt to another school
that actually looks like a fairly severe impact....
is anybody else even slightly concerned at how vehemently they're denying the allegations? Maybe it's just me but it seems like a lot of times when a coach comes out and says that they are definitely not going anywhere the next thing you know, they're gone.
That being said, I'm fairly confident Whit isn't going anywhere any time soon. I actually believe him. But I wanted to point out that just because they say he's not interested doesn't mean that he's not interested.
Nah, I got it. Just trying to extend it a little, but missed the target and fell flat. Leg for ya.
Welcome to the family, coach! Honestly, I know nothing about you but if you're good enough for Buzz then you're good enough for me. I absolutely can't wait for hoops season.
Just spoke to Virginia Tech spokesman, who says emphatically that AD @WhitBabcock has no interest in Baylor AD job & is very happy at VT.— Marty Smith (@MartySmithESPN) July 12, 2016
Have your silly pie.
Whoa, 2037?
I was referring to the question "cake or death?" And saying it was about like "pint or half quart" (meaning they're the same).
On a related note, you know how explaining a joke makes it significantly less funny? Yeah...
Met a reporter once who was named Judith Baroody. You tell me what you'd be thinking...I was.

Wow. I thought haberdasheries ran their course along with Charles Dickens novels.
Just sayin'.
Nooooo. This is not a yard wide, yard long thing. Pie is supreme. As for the pint? Yes please.
Totally respect Jahque's statement and agree that people shouldn't trash Laborn for not picking VT. There was no way he was coming here anyhow, and we knew it for months. It was an inevitability. However, I do think it's fair to question the manner in which he committed and how it impacts the sport as a whole. More importantly, I question the involvement of "legitimate" media groups like BR being so heavily involved in recruits' commitments. He honestly might have well rode in horseback with Chief Osceola throwing straps of cash. There were FSU logos on that car - you can't tell me the school, which obviously has a heavy interest in their brand, didn't have some involvement in this. Best of luck to Laborn, but just in my insignificant opinion, not the best way to go about business. Keep your head low, work hard, and success will find you.
