With the Fame comes the Price for O.J. Mayo

February 5th, 2007

Pat Forde of ESPN.com has written an article on O.J. Mayo entitled Mayo learns the burden of fame as a basketball prodigy. The article deals with OJ Mayo, who although has been in the spotlight ever since he was little, the amount of news and video coverage over a week where he was playing basketball games in three states, filing an injunction in a county courthouse to go from suspended to unsuspended, had the “technical” heard around the world, and played some of the top teams in the country, was a bit overwhelming.

“[O.J.] has received a lot of recognition and self-acclaim. But he has probably learned that certain things come with it — not all of them positive.” – Former Kentucky All-American guard and TV color analyst, Kyle Macy
