Whoa - check out this jump from 6'3" Texas Freshman, Kerwin Roach. Jeremy Evans would be proud. That's gotta be a 40" vertical.

The feat may come as no surprise of fans who have watched his preps track career. Roach captured gold in the triple jump at last March’s Texas Relays with a personal-best distance of 50 feet, 8 inches. He was the only competitor at the Relays to clear 50 feet. He also captured the 6A state title in May with a leap of 50 feet, 6 1/4 inches.

Looks like the Jazz were in attendance in Chicago for the Maccabi game with Bender. Of course the only way we should be able to get him is if we trade up. Saw the end of the game and he played quite well. Remember he is only 17 playing against grown men. Will be interesting to see his playing time in the games that count.

Y exclusive: Louisville investigating allegations in new book that former basketball staffer paid escorts to have sex with players, recruits
 
@YahooForde
Story being published on book allegations. Advance copy obtained by Y Sports. Madame wrote book saying ex-UL staffer paid her thousands.

@YahooForde
Book alleges that activity went on between escorts and Louisville athletes for four years, and that more than $10,000 was exchanged.

@YahooForde
Louisville madam Katina Powell kept journals/diaries of alleged transactions. Hand-written page in book lists 19 parties with UL/McGee/etc

@GoodmanESPN
Louisville and NCAA both investigating allegations in book that former staffer Andre McGee paid an escort to provide sex to recruits.

@GoodmanESPN
NCAA talked to LSU freshman and ex-Louisville commit Antonio Blakeney earlier this week about his experiences on visit, source told ESPN.
 
Holy **** @ these details!!! Story broke not long ago, and it seems to keep getting worse. The madame involved escorts were her 3 daughters.

I've heard the University of Indiana blew the whistle on them...
 
@SIPeteThamel
Tom Crean: "Any assertion our basketball program had anything to do with the situation at Louisville is flat-out wrong."
 
"The book contains several photos of Powell and other dancers with McGee and various high school and Louisville players."


What a bunch of morons.. They deserve whatever happens, after letting these heauxs take pictures.
