Five to NONE

We were betting online that Derrick Rose and Chris Douglas-Roberts to bail Memphis for the stupid NBA. Memphis center Joey Dorsey was kinda of a stretch to take a shot at the Numskulls Brawlers and Assholes, but it wasn't unbelievable.

But now Antonio Anderson and Robert Dozier are also declaring for the NBA?!?!

The school announced Wednesday that neither Anderson and Dozier is expected to sign with an agent, leaving the possibility of returning for their senior season open.

That will leave the Tigers without it's starting lineup and no one of note is currently sitting on their bench. Anderson and Dozier have a snowball's shot at getting drafted. The draft is already neck deep in way more talented kids. The article seems to make that point as well...

With a deep pool of underclassmen entering the draft, Anderson and Dozier are unlikely to get drafted with their teammates. But Memphis coach John Calipari says Anderson and Dozier will be able to work out for teams, participate in pre-draft camp and get feedback from scouts.


We could have been contenders...

File this under "We need to dig a little deeper into what's happening here": Lute Olson kicks former interim head coach and current assistant head coach Kevin O'Neill off team.

The 51-year-old O'Neill was hired last spring, and took over as interim coach when coach Lute Olson took a personal leave of absence last season. After Olson returned in March, he announced that O'Neill would no longer be a part of his staff.

Arizona athletic director Jim Livengood said O'Neill would serve as an assistant athletic director until June 30, the end of the department's fiscal year.

"Kevin and I will sit down in mid-June to determine the next step," Livengood said in a statement on Wednesday.

Was it the 19-15 record O'Neill amassed as interim head coach? Was it the pass he made at Lute's estranged wife?

We shall see...

(That making a pass at Lute Olson's wife was fictional, btw)
