quote:

Randolph met with LSU coach Trent Johnson about volunteering to help at the Tigers’ practices to gain coaching experience. If OK’d by the NCAA, Randolph would like to assist his old team.

Randolph played only his freshman season at LSU before entering the 2008 draft, where he was selected 14th by the Golden State Warriors. If the lockout ends during the fall semester, he’d like to finish his classes online and return for summer school. A sociology major, Randolph also is considering joining a fraternity and attending LSU football games.

“The students know I’m from the NBA, but it’s more fun because I can focus on my schoolwork,” said Randolph, who has promised his mother he’d get his degree. “I don’t have the basketball distraction. I’m a more focused student now after being in the real world for a couple of years.”



NBA =/= real world Anthony

If anything, we can use all the recruiting tools we can get. Perhaps this is EXTREME wishful thinking, but maybe we can re-establish the Dallas pipeline that Brady was beginning to build.

I wish that too. I think the perception of LSU mens basketball would be a little different had we hired him.

That's fair. I really don't know much about them other than the fact they're pretty young and don't seem to have any LA ties.

This is going to be a tricky situation for the NCAA, right? If they let AR do this that what is stopping every college from bringing back their NBA alumni to schedule a couple of classes and become a presence for recruiting.

I guess technically they are unemployed right now, so it doesn't go against any current NCAA rules, but it could get shady quick.
