What an amazing son!

Selfishly, I'm just psyched that he's going to be such a great representative for the university.

Just because I don't post about this right away doesn't mean I'm not incredibly touched by the man Rondae-Hollis Jefferson is turning out to be.

My wife's favorite. The new face of Arizona basketball in the NBA? Sure hope so.

Anybody notice that every time Rondae is on the floor the Nets are dramatically outscoring their opponents? Tonight so far he is +10 in 8 minutes. Has 3 steals already.

He ended up at +13. Ever other player on their roser was negative. Every single player. How is that even possible?

That's been pretty typical this year.

Rondae with 10 points 7 rebounds 2 assists and 3 steals in 17 minutes tonight against LeCavs. Always been high on his potential. He's got Jordan's body. Remember when he was herky jerky? If he keeps growing, skill wise and obviously physically which .. dang... you see his neck on his espn stat profile? Dude is filling out... , He's gonna do UA proud in the league.

I was thinking about Rondae this morning. I was thinking about where he would get drafted in this year's draft if he had stayed and kept developing.

Looking at the guys who are there I think he would've had a legit chance at being a top 5 pick and highly likely in the top ten.

I posted about the salary scale driving players to leave in the Simon thread. When I did, I was thinking about Rondae. If there was still an open market for rookie contracts, I think he would have returned for a junior year for exactly this reason.

He probably would have jumped into the top ten, and in an open market situation, that could have made him 30 million easily. As it currently stands, it would make him about 5 million.

O.k. Some things.

1) I did some heavy-handed moderating (cause I'm tired, and I'm lazy) and instead of editing posts for content, i just deleted everything after LH's post.
2) That type of post was discussed on the politics board, and was determined to be o.k. It's a click through link within this very website (not a link somewhere else) to the politics section where it can be further discussed. If you'd like to chime in on whether you think even such limited posts with links should be allowed in the so-called "upper" boards, then by all means join the discussion down there in the "lower" board. If at some future time it is determined that such posts shouldn't be allowed, LH's post that precedes mine can be deleted as needed.
It's long past time to bring this back to the court, let's do it with a small update:

You'd be hard-pressed to find a Wildcat who doesn't....I still remember the video of him coming back long after a game to visit with a handicapped fan who adored him.....shows true character of that stud.

OAN, how in the hell is his incredible dunk of the year vs. NMSU not in the Legendary Video (link in my sig).....seriously, one of the best dunks I've ever seen by a Wildcat!
