So I am just as excited as everyone else about this kid coming to the basketball program...but am I the only one who is skeptical of his skills? So far, in every highlight video I have seen, it has been nothing but CRAZY slam dunks and 3 pointers. Does he have a mid-range game at all? He is not going to be able to do this on any kind of defense at the college level. Can someone please find me a video that includes more than a few assists, dunks, and 3 pointers. They are great crowd pleasers but it would be nice to see something more...

Evan4SC:
I think I remember a WV guy on the The Sporting News blog site/forum that knows/follows OJ Mayo's career path. I'd wish I could tell you more.

Despite this moniker, there's no truth to the rumor he takes pleasure in antagonizing the "Internet geeks."
