His coach calls him …
His coach calls him lazy and out of shape. The team captain says he is soft. His teammates say he needs to learn to shut up and show up on time. He has no friends on the team. In extensive interviews with Tyler, his teammates, coaches, his father and advisers, the consensus is that he is so naïve and immature that he has no idea how naïve and immature he is. So enamored with his vast potential, Tyler has not developed the work ethic necessary to tap it.-

HAHAHHA in your …
HAHAHHA in your face Jalen, you were so wrong. This kid is playing PRO ball in Israel…yeah…punk. In your face…
oh wait a minute….don’t a look stupid.

“an education lasts forever”
Jalen is so right. An education is the one thing that NO ONE can take away from you.
education is a must …
education is a must. When you come into money, the hardest part is keeping it, because people come out of the wood work trying to take it from you thus you need your family around to help you figure out who is a snake and who is going to help you. This is not good.

I’m with skip on this one.
You simply CANNOT mix up basketball smarts and academic smarts. It just doesn’t have any correlation.
If some team signs a 17 year old kid, well it’s their business.
if jeremy tyler had …
if jeremy tyler had a better attitude overseas then he could’ve been great. i still dont believe that he should’ve left so early but since he went overseas, what bothers me the most is his attitude which brought him down.
i think jeremy …
i think jeremy tyler made a mistake going pro before he graduated high school. i think he was too cocky in making the decision and he didn’t do well overseas so his chances in getting in the nba went from a potential first round pick, if he went to college, to a maybe second round pick if he’s lucky.
i agree with jalen …
i agree with jalen but i dont think skip is wrong about kids wanting to go play pro basketball if teams are going to offer them millions of dollars. you gotta think about situations that these kids are in with their families and stuff. it didnt work out for tyler because he had a bad attitude going in (ie not showing for practice or coming in late etc) so i dont think skip is crazy for saying that but jalen is right
I wish I couldve …
I wish I couldve played high school basketball at the same level that Jeremy did. I wouldve embraced it and wouldnt have it up like he did.
i very much agree …
i very much agree with jalen on this. Skip doesn’t really know what he’s talking about.
im gonna have to …
im gonna have to agree with skip….jalen makes it seem like this guy is gonna gonna make 1.2 million dollars and go on drinking and partying binge…whos to say he cant finish his senior year with a tutor a lot of people do home schooling and get the diploma…also if your presented with the oppurtunity to make close to a million dollars before you the age of 20 playing the sport of basketball why not try it if doesn’t work out your still only 20…it the end of the world jus go back to school
I agree with Jalen
I agree with Jalen
OK in the real …
OK in the real world Skip you are a nut ball! Now look who was right? Jalen Rose 1 and like always Skip 0!!
Jalen 99 % correct …
Jalen 99 % correct about the value of an education. Take it from someone who has a college degree, it is very valuable. However, the 1% is this fact, the top 2 nba players today did not play in college (Lebron and Kobe), Now im not education isnt important, but im saying if there are exceptions like Lebron and Kobe, they should be able to go to the nba after high school.
Skip and Rose each …
Skip and Rose each have some valid points though, such as school isn’t for everyone but education last forever.
Why do people keep …
Why do people keep referring to McDonald’s as if it’s a bad place or only place to work? There ARE other fast-food places you can work at and I’ve heard of some decent paying jobs that don’t require a HS Diploma (although usually involve plenty of manual labor). Anyway, I DO think this kid should’ve waited but hey… things happen.
Just because he …
Just because he can’t play college basketball doesn’t mean he can’t go to college. You CAN go to college WITHOUT playing a sport. Even if it’s a community/junior college, you can still get a degree in something, even if it’s just general studies…
@thetallkev91 My …
@thetallkev91 My bad. I did not mean education. What I truly meant is school. Read about Robert Kiyosaki. It worked for me.
But how would he …
But how would he know how to make money work for him if he doesnt have an education?
lol at anyone who …
lol at anyone who disagrees with anything Jalen said in this video
Well what is he …
Well what is he going to do now?

Isreal is in the middle east.
