Wow great for Baye. He will do great things after basketball but nothing wrong with getting paid to play ball for awhile before that.

 

[Rocco]

Awesome news... couldn't have happened to a more deserving person

 

[HOFCeluck]

Didn't someone say BMK wouldn't play pro ball?

Yep there was someone for sure. I don't remember who though.

Wasnt me but is that so ridiculous to assume? Hea a smart guy who will undoubtedly find success in life. Its not so ridiculous to think basketball wouldnt be the path. Regardless, good for him.

Whoever said it didn't mean it that way. More like he COULDNT play pro ball.

Oh well he played and succeeded at syracuse university so ... That speaks for itself. Hes absolutely capable of being a role player

 

[OttoinGrotto]

He is an inspiration to big men with stone hands everywhere.

I kid, I kid!

 

[RandygoCuse]

Curious what kind of money he'll make.

 

[igor]

it wasn't me, but could have been meaning nba. one of the first disqualifiers are hands. he's a great kid, but a stone mason.

 

[HOFCeluck]

No, it wasn't you.

Good for him!

As an aside, why was he one of your favorites? I loved his hustle on the court but a lot of those with limited talent hustled. Did you know him off court? Being nosy.

Pretty sure I know whose work this would be.

You didn't ask me, but I know him pretty well and like him very much. He is an amazing young man -- hardworking, unselfish, generous with the time he gives to others, humorous, extremely friendly and amazingly likable. Don't forget that English is his 4th language. A year before he came to Syracuse, he literally did not know a word of it. And by the time he graduated, he had become a spokesman for the team and the school. (A senior person in Syracuse athletics refers to him as "my favorite player ever." That should give you an idea of his character).

Yeah yeah yeah, but what's he done for SU lately?

Seriously, that's great news and best wishes for a terrific young man. And thanks to Tee for catching us up on him.

Well alrighty then. With your response and 'Tees' affirmation, good enough. FYI, I was only wondering why, not really questioning. (I hope that makes sense)

Sometimes, I like to put a cherry on top.

The Danes are reportedly the happiest people on the planet. Now they'll have even MORE reason to be happy!

I'm sure I did once or twice or maybe 20 times, or maybe I just thought it. I may have kept my mouth shut and not said it though to avoid the wrath. Who knows.l

At least you are good enough to own it!

 

[edowd26]

I honestly thought this was going to be Sedee Keita committing. A little saddened that's not the case. But ime realy happy for Baye.

Congrats to BMK, I am sure he will do well there!
