Harkless entering the NBA Draft

Money based decision, obviously.  Still, I think this kid is doing himself a disservice.  You have 3 years to show you deserve a big second contract.   Mo is going to need to add a lot of muscle to succeed at the next level.    Hope it works out for the kid, but I think he's making a mistake.

Agreed.

It seems any time St. John's recruits a player of any discernable level of talent, they jump ship ASAP. What makes this so painful is the Johnnies' limited ability to attract good players (much less true blue-chippers).

They are not a program that reloads every year for another deep tourney run and any time they show a glimmer of hope it is snuffed out like a match in a hurricane. I like to call it the Artest Paradigm.

Oh well...

Speaking of Metta World Peace, did you read Grantland's retrospective on the Malice at the Palace?

I knew Artest was off, but that guy is actually mentally ill. Certifiable.
