Southern California coach Tim Floyd reserved comment Saturday in the wake of star recruit O.J. Mayo being cited for misdemeanor marijuana possession late Friday in Huntington, W.Va.
If he makes it thru that 1 year of college that is. Mary J can be a fairly minor offense but OJ seems to have a bit of a selfish attitude. Almost reminds me of Kobe. Plus plopping him in the media spotlight of SoCal never helps. As for the other big 2 players going thru this first trial of 1 year. Oden and Durant. Oden is good but I really like how Durant plays. I think he helped himself as far as draft ranking compared to what he would of gone straight from high school. He's just incredible compared to how "skinny" he is. Reminds me of a young KG.
You assume wrong.
Has Ray Brown been arrested, charged, or convicted of anything?
The answer is no. I am sure he regrets what he did but he broke no laws, and of course the law enforcement people know it too, that's why there have been no arrests or even an inquiry.
Have you ever wondered why he hasn't?
Are you even aware that Ray Brown has NOT broken any laws.
It is not an offense to test positive, the offense is when you are caught with it in your possession.
May seem like a fine line to you, but wake me up when RB gets arrested, gets a criminal record, or even if he gets a suspension for hitting a ref, or any of the number of other things Mayo was suspended for in the past at each of the past couple schools he's been at while doing whatever he has to do to try to grab headlines.
A quote from Mayo's future college coach Tim Floyd at USC.
"???‚¬?“I???‚¬?„?m not concerned because I think part of the reason O.J. picked our university was because of the support system we have.."
So he isn't concerned?

Please tell me you DO NOT HAVE children. With that type of attitude, we can only hope not.
THEY BOTH DID MARIJUANA!!! There is NO contention about either case. Ray Brown did not get arrested, that DOES NOT MEAN he did not break any laws. He could not be convicted, which is the only reason he was not charged. Also, there are more convictions than in a court of law. Yes, RB was charged with using pot and convicted by the NCAA. He was sentenced to losing one year of eligibility. If you don't think that is a law he broke, please go read the definition of a law. He broke no city, state or national law, but that doesn't mean he didn't break a law of the NCAA.
I supposed OJ Simpson is innocent too because he was acquitted.
I agree RB is no OJ Mayo, not even close. But this thread was about Mayo using pot and then you said OJ = loser. So are you saying if all OJ Mayo did was use pot he would not be a loser? Or only if he got caught by the police?
I find it odd that if the thread is about OJ, then why did you bring up RB?
Mayo clearly has problems and issues, behavioral problems, was
accused of assault while in high school in Cincy, seems to transfer
schools to avoid suspensions, and now gets cited while cruising in
a Cadillac, arousing suspicion in police who find them packing dope.
While I might not go so far as to label the kid a loser, I think his
issues and attitude are in a different universe from Ray Brown and
there is no comparison.
When this kind of thing happened to a UNC recruit a couple years
ago, they revoked their scholarship offer.
Funny how the USC coach has already gone on record saying this
doesn't bother him at all, of course he knows how OJ can score!
As long as you are playing thought police Tampa, consider this.
You have made your judgement on Ray Brown based on one and only one incident regarding his behavior ever.
He has had absolutely no recurring plattern of violations, suspensions, and anti-social behavior, and he's been a model citizen otherwise, never guilty of any other legal or team violation.
Not the case with OJ Mayo, but that won't stop talent craved coaches from recruiting him, it just gives a little more abundant examples of his behavior from which to draw conclusions.
I believe I still stand by my opinion despite your objection, your honor.
Never mind, OJ has a big game coming up Wednesday for Huntington, and the good ole police of Huntington have decided to drop the charges just in time for OJ to try to win the ole town a state championship.

That was JamesOn Curry who then got a scholarship from Eddie Sutton at Ok St. and was one of their best players this year. Just another bad example for kids that if you are involved in questionable activities, it doesnt matter as long as your a star athelete, you will still get a chance to play.
