Title: Question for Jeff about Mayo/Walker
Post by: michigancat on April 20, 2006, 08:58:36 AM
Who's idea was it to limit their interviews?  Barnes?  Huggins?  Vaccarro?


Basically, who is "running" their "show"?


Also, is Barnes their legal guardian, or is it their North College Hill coach?

This whole thing with Mayo - Walker was a late addition - has been orchestrated by the family since the early start. There was early media buzz, a Web site, etc., but now it's all come to a screeching halt. Huggins hasn't been involved in that decision, although I bet he's happy about it. It's a family decision. Barnes is the legal guardian and AAU coach. Jamie Mahaffrey is the coach at North College Hill. Neither are talking.

Did the family make that call?

Are their parents still in Huntington?  What's their role right now?


Also, any idea what tourneys Huggins might be hitting up this weekend?

My understanding is that Barnes is "family".  He's Mayo's grandfather if I'm not mistaken.

Not clear on the particulars of the family.

But I do know Bob will be in Pittsburgh this weekend for J.O. Stright's tournament.

Bob will be in Pittsburgh. Frank Martin will be in Houston. Dalonte will be in Baltimore/D.C.

Also, I'm hearing that given the recent development, Mayo and Walker might not be a package deal after all.
