    I have very little doubt that it's real. It's amazing how many people both dislike and know absolutely nothing about things that pertain to college sports.

    I googled this guy. Apparently some retired college/prep school teacher.
    Maybe he taught at UC.

    Lady, you owe me a bourbon for providing that link.
    ...he went up late, and I was already up there.

    In the print edition, it came with a picture of Chris Mack covering his face and Luke Murray also looking forlorn. It was a picture dating back to the home game against Villanova.

    It was enough of a hack job that I didn't even want to acknowledge it, but when LadyM brings it up, it can't be ignored. Apparently the reader thinks that Trevon and Ed are also completely dismissing their coursework since they've now declared for the NBA Draft, even if he didn't mention them by name.

    Snipe's alter ego writing a 3:00 AM letter to the editor? Only explanation I can think of.
    Mom and Papa told me "Son, you gotta go to school; only way to make the fam'ly proud."
    I paid no attention, left my books at home, rather play my music real loud.

    Reads like someone from the Musketeer Madness board wrote it.

    I'll join you for that bourbon! I couldn't believe what I was reading, and you know how misery loves company.

    I wasn't going to share it, but it was festering in my brain and I had to get it out.

    Why was this published? It's horribly written, factually incorrect, and doesn't make a point. Oh, wait... that's just like the Enquirer.

    There was a Villanova fan on the scout board who sounded like this last week.
