I don’t see the big deal or why ya’ll saying it a terrible decision? If it was football sure, basketball it don’t make all that much difference in the long run. Individual talent shows in hoops, nba will find you wherever you go for a year. What ho dunk ass shit school did Pippen go to? Didn’t seem to effect his career.

Huge mistakeComment -
i think the terrible decision is him being a whore for the media narrative
puts a spotlight on him for better or worse, and it's always worse... ask any multi millionaire celebrity if they would make the same decisions, and almost all of them would say they would rather be a regular joe that can just go eat a sandwich in peaceComment -
He's one and done at Kentucky and making millions. Now?Comment -
i was on their campus 20+ years ago and I was very impressed. 70% of students are women in sundresses. Howard’s law school and business schools are top 25. 15% of students are white btw. Plus it’s in one of the most powerful cities in the country/world. Lexington, Memphis, etc., can’t compare as cities to live in.
Howard has a 7 to 1 teacher to student ratio. You’re not a number like at UF where I had a class with 900 students.Comment -

Questions About Diversity
- What do we mean when we refer to diversity in college?
Often when we speak of diversity, what we mean is multiculturalism, or the acceptance of people of different ethnicities, cultures, races, religions and financial backgrounds. Diversity can be a huge benefit to students, as it not only exposes them to new ideas and ways of thinking, it prepares them for the varied workforce of tomorrow, as well as inspires creativity and innovation. - How is Howard doing at attracting students from all income levels?
Schools with otherwise excellent ethnic and location diversity still may not be diverse when it comes to other factors, such as financial backgrounds. Get a better idea of how Howard supports low-income students by visiting the Financial Aid Page. - Is Diversity Important to Howard?
In order to achieve the most benefit from diversity on campus, seek out schools that are not only promoting diversity by actively recruiting students and hiring faculty from minority groups, but are also promoting an environment where there is positive interaction between different groups.

If he's gonna go to the NBA, which I'm not sure cause I never seen him play, it really doesn't matter where he goes to school. Ben Simmons didn't even make the NCAA tournament and went 1 overall lol.Cause Sleep is the Cousin of DeathComment -
good to see the "15% white students" got corrected by 19th hole, it is really around 1%Comment -
Maybe BET will start broadcasting their games.Comment -
White kids And others are enrolling at HBCUs in record numbers.
aThe percentage of white students at HBCUs stood at 17 percent, according to a report last year from Pew Research Center. That figure was up from 13 percent in 1980. Data provided by the National Center for Education Statistics confirm the steady rise in white students enrolling in HBCUs from 1976 through 2004. That could be the reason, at least in part, why HBCUs saw record growth in

howard in particular has about 1% whites
i could point out that the population of washington dc is 37% white but that also wouldn't mean that howard is 37% white
he is picking one of the blackest of the black schools

In today’s world of technology you can play for a Division III team and be a first round draft pick very overrated where you go to school anymoreComment -
Hampton is also 1% white. This guy is from the blackest place on Earth the Sudan. So perhaps he only want to be around black people, which if that’s the case do what makes you happy.
If blacks want to stay around blacks, it’s their right and they shouldn’t be labeled racist. Same with whites wanting to stay around whites. Wanting to be comfortable around people that are similar to your culture shouldn’t be stigmatized.Comment -
For the most part blacks in a white areas are pretty safe but a white in a black area you’re not SafeComment -
absolutely!
media always praises diversity but cultures/countries/companies/etc have always thrived when they have a common culture... and they have failed and been destroyed when they DON'T
we are seeing that right now with the once-great USA, it's being destroyed by diversity and race baiting... if they would just shut up about it like morgan freeman/denzel/lil wayne have said, "racism" would go awayComment -

I keep telling you guys this shit is about attention.
did anybody here know who this kid was before the news came out? doubt it. now you are well aware. ESPN, social media & other news sources will be sure to remind you of his first game. they'll let you know when he has his first double double, when he drops 20pts, when he has a jaw dropping dunk.
you are plugged into his story now & you don't even know it.Comment -
Absolutely. Our society is ALL about attention these days. Who can get more likes or clicks. Millennials are attention whores. 30 years ago you’d never see an athlete peddling hats on a stage to choose a college. You’d never see an hour long show on a decision for free agency on where you’re taking your talents.Comment -
likes & clicks = $$$ (in the long term)
its not that millennials are attention whores, they are just products of their environment. this new era of social media & technology that we are in didn't exist prior to the beginning of the last decade. there was no such thing as a digital presence 15-20years ago. nowadays, your online profiles can be gateways to future business endeavors, relationship building & a variety of other things. this is just a new era version of the same things people have always done.Comment
