I copied this from the empty.org site, from a poster who apparently copied it from the UCLA site. I post it so you can share in the outrage felt by Memphis fans or simply to nod in agreement and laugh.

How many of those hoodlums came out of the Patterson School, Laurinburg Institute, or Statesville Christian? Over half, I'm sure. Most of the kids that go there are illiterate and have failed multiple years in school. That's why UM's players are so old. They take morons with basketball ability and get them admitted to sleazy colleges like Memphis. Reputable programs like UNC or Duke would not touch this garbage, even though they're in the home state.

Do you really think any of those imbeciles on your team from Laurinburg Institute (4 of them, Dorsey included) are in any danger of winning the Nobel Prize in physics? They're at Memphis because it's the only big-time school that takes illiterates. Calipari is a low-life sleazebag that will sign anything.

Most of those Memphis "student-athletes" came out of North Carolina prep schools. If Roy Williams and Coach K wanted such "student-athletes", why would they run all over the country recruiting? Why not just use Laurinburg Prep and those other "schools" to get players? It's because UNC and Duke want people that can read and learn rather than ignorameses that can play basketball.

That's not what I said. I said if UNC or Duke wanted the same low-life type player Memphis accepts, they wouldn't have to leave the state. They could get all the players they wanted from Mt Zion, Laurinburg, the Patterson School, etc. from right here locally. So what if they can't read or write. Big deal. Fortunately, UNC and Duke expect players to graduate and make something of themselves after basketball.
