Derrick Rose is Turning Pro!

Derrick Rose is Turning Pro! After his awesome freshman season, and after his efforts in taking The University of Memphis to the brink of a NCAA Title he is now off to earn his NBA Fortune! He is projected to be picked within the first 2 picks in the upcoming NBA Draft!

His pending endorsement contracts will probably blow our minds! There has been somewhat of a backlash from readers of the local Memphis Newspaper who felt like Derrick Rose was not wise to leave college at this time, which led me to express the following thoughts below!

Aren’t we sometimes a tad bit racist? Why are college basketball players (Mostly African American) that turn professional so stupid? If one is a lock to be in the first 2 picks of the NBA Draft, why are we talking about his getting a degree? Derrick Rose is only 19, he has time to go back to school and get his degree!

Let’s see Derrick Rose will earn from 3.6 to 5 Million a season guaranteed for the next 4 years( Not Counting the Massive Endorsements that he Will Receive) and he’s stupid to take this opportunity?

Why are golfers, baseball players,tennis players (Who are Mostly White) all allowed to be pros as (young) teenagers and no one says a thing?

This kid is likely to make $10 to 15 Million a Year for the next few years, tell me where he can get a college degree that pays this well, and I will personally find and tell Derrick Rose to stay! Some of the responses about the stupidity of his turning pro are selfish and are definitely not in Derrick Rose’s best interests!

Chris Douglas-Roberts

Chris Douglas-Roberts of the Memphis Tigers should be considered for The Wooden Award. There should be no doubt that he is at least a First Team All American! He undoubtedly is the best player night after night, on a team that will yield several players to the NBA! He had an awesome game against UAB and he helped the University of Memphis to escape a sure loss. CDR for the Wooden Award! If Michael Beasley is having a better year, CDR should at least be a finalist for the Award! This guy is the truth!

The Memphis Tigers are #1 in College Basketball!

The Memphis Tigers are #1 in College Basketball! Why are they so hated? Do these great young men deserve the comments that they receive from many sports announcers? One announcer stated in one of Memphis' early games, that these young men only play for agents and posses, did these players deserve this? Could the fact that the Memphis Tigers don't have one white player, draw the ire of these announcers who are mostly white? Why aren't the Tiger Players described as heady, basketball-savvy, and fundamentally sound?
