@jojo_embiid Joel, you get the rest of your life to make money. Come back to Lawrence, win a title, and have an impact on college basketball

KUBasketball ?@KURecruiting ·Mar 27
@jojo_embiid Do you really want to go the rest of your life without ever playing in the NCAA Tournament? No, man you don't. Come back

KUBasketball ?@KURecruiting ·Mar 27
@jojo_embiid if you go pro what do you want KU fans to remember you for?A 10 loss season and a 2nd round loss that you didn't get to play in

KUBasketball ?@KURecruiting ·Mar 27
@jojo_embiid You have a chance to go up in the rafters of Allen Fieldhouse, but you can't do that in going to the NBA this year

KUBasketball ?@KURecruiting ·Mar 27
@jojo_embiid Tim Duncan, Shaquille O'Neil, Wilt Chamberlain. All stayed in school and developed. All are Hall of Famers in the NBA.

KUBasketball ?@KURecruiting ·Mar 27
@jojo_embiid you have no legacy at KU if you go to the draft. NONE

KUBasketball ?@KURecruiting ·Mar 27
@jojo_embiid You're only guaranteed the 1st contract in the NBA. If you can't last they will get rid of you. Come back and develop man

KUBasketball ?@KURecruiting ·2 hrs
@jojo_embiid if these reports are true then shame on you. You have NO legacy at KU. You didn't even play in the tournament for us? Wth man?

If only I could bet large sums of money on whether or not Embiid gave a eff about his legacy at the college he attended for a semester

It boggles my mind that people get butthurt about that. We would have loved another year of Beasley but nobody called him an idiot for it

Cire · « **Reply #6 on:** April 09, 2014, 09:50:15 AM »

He was just a role player on a 10 loss team.

WildcatNkilt · « **Reply #7 on:** April 09, 2014, 09:52:29 AM »

Why would Embiid ever give a eff about a legacy?

Go get that cash.

The way KU fans treat their star players is very concerning. Why can't they just be happy for the guy?

Holy crap. Stunning that seemingly an entire fan base sees these players as nothing more than indentured servants. eff those people, and an any KU fan on twitter not killing that @KURecruiting guy.

Dugout DickStone · « **Reply #10 on:** April 09, 2014, 10:00:14 AM »

I just don't understand how the ku fans don't know the following:

He is going, bashing him on twitter won't make him suddenly realize he wants to stay
He should go, no matter what you say
Trashing him makes you look stupid so smile and wish him well

bill self has already stolen about half of his career nba earnings by forcing him to play with the back issue and giving him false medical information. what more do they want? all of it? to dance on his corpse? disgusting.

They want him to play for free so the team can survive past the first weekend of the tourney. Thus establishing the "legacy" that will help feed him and his family for generations.

I find it even more amusing that the t-shirt fan base/joco crowd is at the head of this. Nothing is more "convincing" to me, than a bunch of drop outs telling a future millionaire to stay for a "legacy".

GCJayhawker · « **Reply #15 on:** April 09, 2014, 10:32:59 AM »

This is not representative of the entire fan base, just the vocal minority. Most would love if Embiid came back, but completely understand him leaving for the NBA.

Jo, these fans say they have your best iterest in mind, but they don't. They are lion.

Get back, get back, get back to where you once belonged. Get back, Jo

Well this is a case where the supposed silent majority is complicit by not telling the supposed minority to shut the eff up. I think your vocal minority assessment isn't accurate, it isn't like KU fans don't have an extensive history of doing this.

I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP: "His legacy will be that he showed that Bill Self can take a basketball novice with physical skills and develop him into a top 3 draft choice in less than a year."

Well I mean KU luminaries like Ryan Robertson, Jerod Haase, and Todd Reesing all got book deals right? That's something.

His primary goal should be not having to come back to Lawrence, ever, but especially not to make some radio/signature deal at the local Goodcents for the appearance fee.
