Just read an article about exactly that today. But now I can't find it...

I don't know how many times this year, three maybe, that I have feared for RHJ.

Not surprising, glad he was here this year. Good luck to him.

Oh and thanks for my favorite memory of this season--the dunk and shimmy backpeddling in the PAC tourney. Awesome.

Will be missed. Will probably go down among the all-time most popular/loved Wildcats. Best of luck to him in the draft and in the league.

@RondaeHJ23: When the time is right I'll make my decision . I must first have a sit down with my coach and my mother. No decision has been made.

He is wearing his golf glove on his right hand so I wonder if he plays golf that way. Maybe it doesn't matter which way he plays...100+

The hand showing with the glove on it in the picture is his left hand.

He read Hogan's "Five Modern Fundamentals" and so he is patterning his game after the Hawk, who was a lefty that played right-handed. (the anti-Mickelson)

Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

He went to Get Air Saturday and put up like 5 videos on instagram. He was going back flips, foam pit jumps, and jumping across multiple trampolines. He took all of the videos down now though. His agent probably told him to cut it out

Nope. My son has friends who live in the same apartment complex as Rondae who told him he is moving out of his pad.

It has been done before (presser to announce returns to school). Doesn't sound likely but it has been done before.
