There is and I'm sure it's to report that the NCAA has ruled Morris in done for the whole season and he has to repay $7000 to the NBA teams for workouts. Go to ESPN.com for the story. |

I didn't think it looked good when they said he was a client of SFX. I'd say he's through with college ball period then. Excuse me, I said that before reading the article. I wonder if he'll stay at UK then?

That's a tough out for UK.

If he's the Randolph from last year he might be through. One has to wonder if he has changed any at all from this experience. Any chance at all an appeal to the board would do any good?
What probably will happen is he will leave, and we may have lost on some potentiel recruits due to it. So the biggest damage AS ALWAYS, was done to the the school!

Morris would have been better off if he lived in Conneticut and stole lap top computers!  |

How could he have listened to so many wrong people and not even asked for advice from UK's athletic dept on the rules. Tough times for Morris, I bet it's Euro ball for him in his attempt to go to the NBA.

Its the ULTIMATE in bad choices. I suppose what has to be kept in mind is he was an 19 year old kid. If its me I kind of blame the parents for not stepping in and saying, son why dont we check with your school! But perhaps they were in the old mode of they are telling me exactly what I want to hear syndrome!

It's sad all the way around, for him and UK. I hope Dickie V preaches to them.

Looks like geek blew another one. How can he claim to be such an insider?

It was 50/50, anyone could take a chance. Even Tubby was optimistic.
