The elder Oden said Conley and fellow Ohio State freshman Daequan Cook also were expected to put their names in the draft.

I'll look forward to the beatdown in January.

 

[ukvols]

Me too, but I think we would have beaten them down even if those guys played, because it will be in TBA.

 

[Vercingetorix]

Well, come on. A little perspective, please. They might lose Oden and Conely, but we lose DANE BRADSHAW. I'd say that about evens out, right?

The Elder Oden? Goodness, the elder Oden must by 90 years old...:crazy:

That's some funny stuff right there. However, I would love to see the 40 year old son come to Memphis to play aside poor old Pau!!!!

OSU should still be good next year. I expect them to be like us this past year. Start a little rough, but improve a lot. We should be a better team, especially if all these guys do leave, but will definitely have talent.

I thought that if Oden went Conley would go too, but I agree they will still be good by the end of next year.

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

This will still be a pretty good OSU team when we play them this season. I'm kinda shocked that Oden is leaving to be honest. Should have seen the writing on the wall a few weeks ago I guess when Mike Conley Sr. became a NBA agent. Looks like Conley and Oden will be seperated unless Conley falls to the second around which I don't see happening. Sucks to be a tOSU fan today.

not viable final 4 candidate good

Conley needed to go, even if Oden stayed. He's likely the top point guard in this draft class...it won't be that way next year.

 

[ut 4 me]

cannot wait for the OSU game this year

Which probably caused Oden to go.

So what's the word, guys? We got an all-time draft this year?

sucks to be an OSU fan everyday.

 

[tvolsfan]

Looks like Oden may not go after all...

 

[tidwell]

Interesting.

Do the Odens and Conleys live in the same frickin' house or something?

Conley Sr.: Oden hasn't decided on draft - NCAA Basketball - Yahoo! Sports

"No. Definitely not. Not to say he's not going to decide that -- but, 100 percent, as of this moment, he hasn't decided," Conley, father of Oden's high school and college teammate, Mike Conley Jr., told The Associated Press.

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

So Greg's dad says he's going and Conley's dad says he isn't sure?? Who's REALLY Oden's daddy?? lol

 

[tvolsfan]

I have no idea what will happen as a result of this.

 

[ut 4 me]

this is strange

 

[surrealvol]

Isn't Oden too old to play in the NBA?

 

[tvolsfan]

Oden is gone. Conley will be gone if he is top 13. Cook just wants a good spot.

 

[TennesseeFan07]

I still am really shocked that Oden is leaving. Oh well, it doesn't bother me any though.

Oden is gone. Conley will be gone if he is top 13. Cook just wants a good spot.

Cook needs to stay
