DC, Dick Campbell was the last coch fired by Xavier. Tay Baker was moved upstairs or sideways.:D

If you're not smart enough to get into a legit school you do. Hello, Shawn Kemp. (Although I seriously doubt that is the case with Famous.)

Of course, if you're not smart enough to get into an NCAA university, you could always just go to Memphis. They'll make you eligible. I think you might have a good chance of making the cut at UK now too.

Shawn Kemp was headed to Kentucky, but they were placed on probation and were in trouble with the NCAA. He then decided to go straight into the pro's.

But didn't he attend Trinity JC before going pro?

He signed a letter of intent to play for UK, but left due to Sutton's scandle/violations on the school and transferred to Trinity. However, he was never able to play for them because of rules not allowing him to be eligible to play for their JC. So he spent a semester there and declared himself eligible to for the draft. So Kemp would have played for UK and would have been academically eligible, but UK was in trouble with the NCAA and he left the team before the season started. Then he had to abide by the transfer rules and just said screw it.

So, technically, he did attend a JC before going pro. :)

I'm still somewhat amazed that Kemp spent any amount of time at any school. That guy is a moron. He had one true skill...he could put it in the hole. He was also a pretty talented basketball player too. Although his scoring percentage on the court wasn't quite as good.
