Jeremy Tyler is Struggling in Israel, so His Agents Send Makhtar Ndiaye to Help?
1-liner, International Basketball November 9th. 2009, 11:15am
Jeremy Tyler: Tremendous piece in the NYT over the weekend about Jeremy Tyler, the talented but delusional high school basketball player who passed on his senior year to play in Israel. “His coach calls him lazy and out of shape. The team captain says he is soft. His teammates say he needs to learn to shut up and show up on time. He has no friends on the team.” Odd tidbits: His family isn’t over there with him (!), he’s dating the late Eazy-E’s daughter, and his agents sent former UNC lout Makhtar Ndiaye to “help him out.” Ndiaye had a checkered career at UNC, where he was branded a liar and crazy. Great influence, that guy. [NYT]

Is that pictue one of the best unc teams to walk god’s green earth? I see Vince and Jamison, can’t make out the other guys.

yup, St. Bear, still think it was the right move. Not really surprised at the culture shock – am surprised he’s out there alone. think about your senior year in high school. now, imagine going to a foreign country, solo.
it’s like kwame brown going from HS to the NBA and now having a support system.

i dont think he should be drafted until he has a at least a g.e.d. or high school diploma.

I think the other two guys are Ndiaye and Julius Peppers.

That’s exactly why I don’t agree with the move. Even if he had his whole family out there with him, he’s still a 18 year old living in a foreign country. Most 18 year olds can’t get things straight in their home town.

Makhtar is the worst person to come out of that program, which is pretty damn impressive considering the competition.

Do they still do insanely low buy-in satellites for the main event? I should give one of those a shot.
