Star Recruit OJ Mayo

Ray Brown knew what he was doing....he basically admitted he smoked marijuana and it was part of his life growing up....Ray Brown smoked marijuana and that is breaking the law even though he never got caught or arrested for it. If I steal your car, park it my garage and never get caught or arrested is it OK? Of course not....I broke the law....and Ray did too! He just never got "caught" by the proper authorities.

I am in no way comparing Ray to OJ Mayo... Ray made a mistake, got caught, has paid the price, (which is more than OJ will ever do!) and it is time to move on.
 
This writer for ESPN is also impressed by OJ Mayo's early entry into the misbehavior club and treats him like the posterboy for future NCAA violations.

Regarding USC-
"the countdown to the O.J. Mayo era begins! Has he spent his booster money yet? I think he should buy a Range Rover and live in a suite at the top of the Standard Hotel near the Staples Center. Just kidding, there's no way USC would ever pay off a football or basketball star. That would be illegal. But just to be safe, I'd like to place a wager on the Mayo era ending prematurely in about nine months thanks to an investigative N.Y. Times feature that runs the same week as an Armen Keteyian report on "Real Sports" and a three-hour "Outside the Lines" report hosted by a euphoric Bob Ley."

He should have stayed with Bob Huggins, they could get a bulk team discount on their weed.

I won't weigh in on this debate, but will pose a little more evidence for you to peruse.

Not many recruits would do it this way.

--a video of the final high school dunk by Mayo, dunking at the end of a game that was already decided and was a blowout (the scoreboard is visible and it is 77-30), then tossing the ball way into the stands, receiveing a technical

--Incident where Mayo bumps ref, gets ejected (he actually pushed the elderly ref to the floor)
And it can be seen that the ref doesn't call the "T" for the dunk, but instead for the taunting that followed.

Mayo is reduculous. What kind of a player has the audacity to tell the coach, "don't call me, I'll call you." After this kid's first suspension from school for breaking whatever team rule, he will be gone. With his "me-first" style of play, Mayo has been prepping for the NBA since middle school. Is it any wonder he has been to three different high schools in three years?
