Pretty wild, unfortunately not the first of last time we'll see something like this I'm sure.

Until he got hurt, he was really good. Quentin Broussard was a good back, too.

The three hoops guys were all major contributors. Payne actually sat out his senior year for reasons unknown, although now it seems obvious why he did it. Triplett was the leading scorer.

Hmmm......And yet we still have the naive ones that don't believe there are "FIXES" in Sports.

No it is the fact that everytime some guy loses a $25 bet comes on board and screams fix. For example some dumbass was screaming fix because Jason Kidd (who is a terrible 3 point shooter) hit a 3 at the buzzer of the first half to cover the 1st half line. The fix was the fact that JR Smith took a shot from about 40 feet away and missed. Therefore you have a FIX!

In the pro's it's rarely a player. College is another story.

As for Kidd.....just a bad break for gamblers. No "FIX" there IMO.
