We're no longer the Jail Blazers, or the Weed Blazers. :closedeyes:

Like Major Windbag, however, we do still suck at basketball.

Well I for one wish Major luck. It sucks his career went up in a puff but I'm glad to see him playing somewhere and earning good money doing so.

From Eurobasket.com:

TOFAS signed with US center Major Wingate (208-C-83, college: Tennessee). Bursa club who had been searching a defensive center, found what they want in Greece as they decided to bring Wingate who had been with Makedonikos for a month. Wingate who played three years for Tenessee but decided to turn pro on his senior year. US big man averaged 10.6 points, 4.

That is a generous way of putting it.

 

[crazyguy]

kind of sad that you can smoke your brains out once you get to the league but can't in college...only in america...

 

[GAMECOCK]

Yet another example of UT getting a great SC high school star and ruining him....he he he.

 

[kiddiedoc]

Maybe he can start investing in a pair of hands, if that Hunny-G doesn't go up in smoke.

 

[VolBeef88]

I love the quote. He decided to turn pro!

 

[rexvol]

well, he does have a girlfriend and a new infant to provide for, so I wish him all the luck

 

[GAVol]

I agree. He screwed up royally and let a lot of people down. For his sake, I hope he grows up.
