Interesting Carmelo Anthony Interview

[MarkRedman]

Every Saturday, Newsday has a Kidsday section
The section always includes an interview with a celebrity
Yesterday, the interviewee was Carmelo Anthony
Here is an interesting Q & A from the interview:

Q: We are sure that you were recruited by a lot of colleges when you were younger. Why did you choose Syracuse?

A: I was always a Big East fan. I wanted to play in the Big East and I always wanted to go to St. John's, but St. John's didn't recruit me that year. But I am also a big (Jim) Boeheim fan, and Syracuse was one of the top schools I wanted to go to.

All I can say is WOW!! We didn't recruit him? Somebody sure fell asleep at the wheel

Not to contradict you in any way MainMan but to complement what you said the answer was Mike Jarvis. Remember we also recruited Curtis Sumpter who was a 6 7 small forward so it would have been acceptable to recruit Carmelo since we recruited Lenny and Curtis and lost out on both of them but did not recruit the better of the three and the one who wanted to go to SJU. Fat , lazy piece of crap.
