I'm on record in January saying he won't be back. Nothing in the last two months has changed my mind.
I'm buying. That guy couldn't stay out of trouble before he was in the spotlight. Trouble tempts fame and he'll flame out - probably before summer starts and definitely before next season starts.
As far as his earning potential, it really doesn't matter if he stays another year or not. His game is what it is and translates into decent money overseas for a pretty long time if he can keep his nose clean. What he obviously needs is maturity and who knows if staying in college another year will help. Obviously playing with guys like Summers, Williams, Buckner and Holloway didn't help this year because I can't remember another circus clown like him. He makes Demarcus Cousins look mature.

If he decides to stay he'll do something to get booted before next season.
About the nicest way I can describe him is just classless. Embarrassingly so. Completely out of control. His coach knows it and got what he wanted out of him. One season good enough to get to the NCAAT to preserve his job for another season or two. AK would be nuts not to be looking for somewhere to go while the getting is good.
Is it just me or does he remind anyone of Jason Williams (Florida,NBA) Not necessarily the look, just the attitude and general douchery.
