Oh, Rutgers....their star freshman is 21

[intlzncster]

Junior Etou, who played tonight after serving a six-game suspension for receiving impermissible benefits, has apparently been fibbing about his age. He made his debut tonight as Rutgers beat Stillman College in the "NIT Tip-Off Consolation Round". Stillman is apparently a college somewhere in America and the NIT Tip-Off Consolation Round is a tournament where shame is the only reward.

Anywho, while Rutgers lists Etou as having been born in 1994, Deadspin, FIBA and the rest of the planet are convinced that he's 21 and that he helped win a championship last season as a 20-year old high-schooler.

I absolutely love these guys. Especially when they are pushing 25 years old and try to get back in the high school game for one more shot at the 'big one'.

"Coach woulda put me in fourth quarter, we would've been state champions. No doubt. No doubt in my mind."
