Is OJ Mayo the next LeBron James?

To those not familiar with basketball, the words "OJ Mayo" would be puzzling. Why would anyone use Orange Juice and Mayo in the same sentence? I'm not a chef but orange juice and mayo probably don't taste good together. That doesn't make sense.

But it makes a lot of sense in the world of basketball. OJ Mayo is the name of a player. Not just any player. He is the next big thing. Possibly the next LeBron James hype-wise. He is considered by many to be that good.

And other things equal, he will play at least one year in college somewhere, starting with the 2007-08 season. Where? That is the big question. One possibility is for a package deal with his HS/AAU teammates. And what a deal that would be! That's what I call a blockbuster program maker package deal. One of his teammates is Billy Walker, one of the Top 10 if not Top 5 players of 2007.

And to make things even more intriguing the players seem to have a relationship with the currently unemployed Bob Huggins, frozen at 399. One set of rumors has Huggins riding the coaching carousel back to West Virginia, and those two recruits mentioned above have links to West Virginia. They could all end up there. But again, these are rumors.
