LMAO..Please tell me this is your opinion about the whole rhodes situation, because if your trying to stat a fact your completely wrong. 1. rhodes is from jersey bro not texas. 2. Transfers came with their father not rhodes. 3. He applied for two other coaching positions besides cordia. 4. Why he picked Kentucky is because unless you haven't realized ball is a big tradition down here and he played 2 years at uk. I know u don't know Rhodes personally, but trust me man he don't look down on anyone for being born and raised here. And he didn't even know the comissioner until this year so i know he didnt think he could get one over on him when he didn't even know the man. If your upset with this whole thing ok but damn dude rhodes ant bad guy, he treats everyone around with respect and you can tell he really cares about those boys.

1. He was born and grew up in New Jersey, but came to good ole Cordia from Texas, where he lived and worked and meet recruits. 2. He picked these boys out before he was even hired in any coaching position. One of the Cordia fans on here even admitted that, and I think it was you. The states was that he knew these boys before he came and they would have gone where ever he ended up coaching. 3. I don't know the number of applications he put in (if I get time I'll google it) but when he started apply for positions every day another school was putting on here that Rhodes may be coaching at their school. Several were even in the news. But the number doesn't matter, point is he was job shopping in Kentucky for a school that would let his boys play. 4. Rhodes isn't even a University of Kentucky fan. He played there, didn't cut it, got red shirted (which even he knew meant that they were just trying to get rid of him, got mad and asked to be released (which Kentucky was more than glad to do) and moved on to California. When he first took the job at Cordia, his facebook did not even mention UK under either his academic or athletic achievements. He was a Duke fan, and even put on his face book: Duke or UK (that is until all his new Kentucky facebook friends pounded him).

Now you want my opinion, he is not here for the basketball tradition. He is here for one of two reasons or maybe both. He is trying to get these basketball camps built up into a profitable business and he is wanted to be a college head coach someday (which he has been trying to do since he failed in the NBA) and he is trying to use these boys and Cordia school to do it. You see if he comes in to a little school like Cordia and takes them to their first ever state tournament, as much as you don't like Cordia being a Cinderella story, that is exactly what it will be. He will get nationwide attention for himself. If he can manage to get one of these boys a D1 offer to boot, well that's all the better. Now that's my opinion!
