this is exactly why the one and done system is so wrong for college BBall. I'm sure agreeing in principle with agents for kids like him happen all the time but to admit it publicly by the agent/athlete does not look good.

Bingo. This is a pretty clear cut violation unless there was a compliance officer standing next to them the entire time telling each what to say. Talking to an agent isn't a violation, but talking about signing is a big no-no. Hopefully the narrative is focused on how stupid the one and done rules are and LSU gets painted as the victim. :fingers crossed:
