Lonnie Wheeler of the Cincinnati Post doesn’t think so:
No. At some point, he’ll have to function in an environment that is not of his own making.

He most likely won’t be, but that does not he won’t be a great player. Rivals.com comparison to Chauncey Billups is a sound comparison, except bigger and better. He will be an All-Star calibur player for many years, maybe not MVP, as long as he continues to work, and get rid of the unneccessary drama and leeches from around him, he will be fine.

It’s not about being the next LeBron he will be the leader he has been his whole career. This stage will be good for him because he will not be under the West Virginia Spotlight. O.J. could have signed with West Virginia University at the start of his freshman year because he is that good. Typical West Virginia has an, “If you are not with me you are against me.”, attitude when it comes nationally recognized black athletes. The sport spot light turns into a cops flash light when they do not commit to West Virginia University. The same thing happened to Randy Moss when he did not consider West Virginia University for his college career.

Mayo is not a team player. He abandoned CNCH after Walker was ineligible. C’mon now. Why on earth would a player with his skills go to a school with a pathetic basketball program like USC. Hmmmmm, let’s see, could money be involved? Why would he go to Florida, Duke, UNC, or OSU? Gee, gonna get some free rides in LA. He will never be as good as Lebron James. Lebron is a team player. OJ should take notice.
