http://draftexpress.com/headlines.php#2107 This is wierd but exciting news, if Bill Walker comes out next year this draft class will be insane. I hope Walker's attitude improves or something because it looks like a problem.
hmm..He has an attitude problem? I never knew that..Bill is in the same draft class as OJ so how can he come out next year?
They can find legal loopholes. But why would he want to skip his senior year in high school? He'd have to play 2 years in college anyway if he were to do this..
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (BCB @ Jul 10 2006, 02:50 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Why don't you guys read the damn article. </div> OJ has been playing as long or longer HS ball than Walker? How does he still have elegibilty or what?
I would say thats definently not a sure thing, because Walker has not graduated from High School, he just played Varsity ball in 8th grade. It's supposed to be one year after his graduating class, not necessarily his eligibility. Maybe he should take some summer school classes to try to graduate? Anyway, OJ played his 7th and 8th grade years on varsity in a state where that does not affect eligibility, Walker did not.
So? OJ played 6 years of varsity. Was he eligible for the NBA last year? Can someone explain this to me..I might be confusing myself here..

There maybe a way to find a legal loophole, but how'd that work for Maurice Clarett in the NFL. Anyway, he would have to wait one year after his graduating class. So, theoretically in order to do this, he would have had to graduate early. The rule isn't going by basketball eligibility, it's going by graduation.
