Stephenson to Cincy

 

Yahoo sports has link to an article in The Dagger which talks about Stephenson going to Cincinnati.  The article rightfully chides the Bearcats for taking this guy.  It says:  "Throw in the usual risks you take with one-and-done players -- they don't show up for class in the spring at best; they aid in a complete and utter breakdown of your program at worst -- and you can see the stakes here."  That link reminds me that Timmeh has yet to address the $1,000 question.

I don't see a lot of kids with the Stephenson/Mayo baggage heading toward UCLA, which is just fine with me.

yep

don’t want them and don’t need them. I’d rather than solid kids that will stick around and develop over 2-3 years than any flash-in-the-pan walking violations.

I know zippo about Cincinnati

except that they seem to take a lot of athletes with less than stellar reputations. What gives? Anyone?

The Dagger article mentions it

Cincy had a president who wanted to clean things up. Then she left, and things got dirty again. Something like that.
