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.-

Jalen is so right. An education is the one thing that NO ONE can take away from you.

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 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
