What kind of idiot would think that was UConn's shade of blue.

Rip has been tight with WWW for a long, long time

He'll call reporters and start the conversation the exact same way. "Are we off the record?" He calls Rip Hamilton his nephew. Same goes for Michael Kidd-Gilchrist and Chris Douglas-Roberts. This guy has one large extended family.

Why is so much importance being given to this?

Because the Knicks suck right now.

How does an allegedly amateur athlete already have a "logo" printed on Nike gear?

Because he is largely responsible for funneling recruits to the Squid. On the surface, he just peddles influence and smoozing connections to the rich and very famous (LeBron in limo rides with Calipari recruits, Leer jet flights, introductions to JayZ, Drake etc.). Kentucky had 7 out of the top 15 recruits this year and typically have the #1 recruiting class...it is not likely because the recruits all love the Squid's smile. He is registered as an agent and contact with him is supposed to be not permitted by NCAA rules, but this is also 100% ignored by the NCAA.

Lol who thought that was a UConn shirt? Last I read all the Big Blue Nation was pissed just because he posed with Rip, not because they thought that was a Connecticut shirt.

Not only was the photo taken before the game, Drake clarifies that the logo on it is not UConn's "U," but rather the logo of Kentucky freshman James Young.

James Young has his own logo? Why did I never think to design my own logo?

I have posted this on the yard before but I have seen WWW/Kentucky cheat with my very own eyes. At the 2011 HOF tipoff at Mohegan I witnessed WWW provide cash to Kidd-Gilchrist's mother who then walked it right across the court between games to Michael who was waiting for her on the other end of the floor. It was in plain sight, clear as day. They didn't even try to hide it.

Absolutely no surprise. NCAA with zero duckcks given.

Hey, be quiet with that. If the NCAA finds out they will once again force Ryan Boatright to sit a few games while they put his mothers's finances under a microscope. After all, she does know Reggie Rose.

Anybody can buy a plain Nike t-shirt and have a logo printed on it. Pretty sure Nike has nothing to do with Young personally
