BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -- For Arkansas junior guard Ronnie Brewer, the courtship started a long time ago when he first started getting e-mails from agents, asking for his cell phone number.
"I don't give my cell phone number out," said the 6-foot-7 Brewer, who likely will be announced today as the SEC's preseason player of the year.
"They try, but I'm not going to give it to them. ... I tell them I don't want to be bothered. They can send information out but I'm not going to look at it right now."
Brewer's father, Ron, played in the NBA, so he has a little bit better advice than some basketball players who threw away their college careers last spring.
Nowhere was the NBA Draft a bigger disaster last year than in the SEC

There's no doubt every year hopefully is a learning experience for the players and coaches. Some learn, some don't.
