Gator Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 The Ohio State trio of Greg Oden, Mike Conley Jr. and Daequan Cook came into Columbus together and it appears as though they will depart after just one season with the Buckeyes. According to a pair of sources close to the situation, the three players will release a joint statement Friday morning with each declaring for the NBA Draft. Oden will sign with an agent, most likely former track and field star Mike Conley Sr., who coached the trio in summer basketball. Conley and Cook will hold off from signing with an agent for now, but if all goes well in individual workouts for NBA teams, they will likely sign with an agent prior to the June 18 deadline to withdraw from the draft.

buckbuster11 Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 No problem. Ohio State is building a dynasty remember? This won't affect them one bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muggs Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Dallas Lauderdale and Kosta Koufus will be there next year. I'm not worried...they'll be a final four team once again, unlike the Gators. besides, Oden is the only confirmed departure, I think Conley will go too, but Cook could possibly stay. It would be best for him, he'll go top ten next year if he does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muggs Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Check that...all three are gone. But like I said, there's plenty of blue chip talent on board for the next three years. I mean, Matta's got kids who are in 8th right now verbally committed to the Scarlet and Grey. We'll be around for a while boys...and you'll be hearing about it from the entire time.

Isn't it illeagal to talk to any student that is not a Senior in High School? I would think the NCAA would frown upon talking to 8th graders?
