Former Kansas University basketball forward Thomas Robinson will be represented by Rival Sports Group of Beverly Hills, Calif., the organization announced Wednesday. Agent Tony Dutt, who also represents former KU players Marcus and Markieff Morris, will be handling Robinson’s NBA contract.
“Coach Self and the entire coaching staff along with Kansas University have done an excellent job in making Thomas the most NBA ready player in the draft and we are excited to be a big part of this process,” said Jason Martin, Rival co-founder.
“He is a great talent and an even better person,” said Richard Gebbia, CEO of Rival Sports Group.
Robinson is expected to be a top-five pick in the June 28 draft.

Now...let me get this straight...somebody's negotiating agent passes as NEWS? No wonder 18 year old kids think the world revolves around them. Hopefully, it's only the off season lull.

So we shouldn't write about any former KU players, the basketball team, and the university?

I enjoy reading some positive news about someone, whether it is sports related or not. We can all read the headlines and if it is of no interest to you then don't finish reading the article. Some people just want to complain!

+52. Though I wish I could complain about the complainers more without seeming ironically hypocritical.

Tony Dutt's paycheck just got fatter! Kinda like Gary Busey. Now for a comment completely disconnected from anything.
