    Agree. Could have shown the world what it's like to play in the NBA with anxiety/mental illness. Could have stood up for the greater good and shown all the naysayers he could play. That's probably out of the question now. Don't think he will ever play in the NBA.

    I, too, unfollowed him this year. I was a HUGE fan of his here at ISU but I just can't take his ranting and raving. If he really wanted to raise awareness, he would play. He is doing MUCH more damage to his supposed cause than anything else. I hope he gets it figured out but at this point, I doubt he ever contributes anything meaningful to any NBA team.

    Yep, this thread has just been pwned.

    Also just unfollowed him this week. His rants about the gun issues and mental health took me over the edge.

    People (e.g Royce) who use horrible tragedies to get on their sopabox about their own "issues" are scum.

    I am concerned that CFH has lost credibility with GM's around the league over sticking his neck out for Royce.

    As someone else said, I am sad this is happening.

    We're doing this again? Hoiberg just did his job, and did it well as Royce played (and played great, for that matter) without incident under Hoiberg's watch. I guess Hoiberg is also expected to be psychic??? Teams knew they were taking a risk drafting Royce, that's why one only one team (if you believe the documentary) had the guts to do it.

    I really hope the best for Royce, that he gets things under control, contributes in the NBA, and raises awareness for mental health through a success story. But he's not doing anyone any favors right now, just giving people an image of some guy with a guaranteed contract sitting at home on his phone all day. Whether or not that's fair, it's certainly not going to raise awareness and it's not going to help his current or future situation.

    Also, Fred has lost all credibility with big men. We will never see the NCAAs again. That one-and-done was the peak of Fred's program. All is lost.

    How long did your ticket burn this time?
    Do you know why I put up with this 'pitiful job', Mr. Donaghy, why I fetch these folks' lunches and clean up their barfs? Cause they make television. And more then jazz, or musical theater, or morbid obesity, television is the true American artform.

    Does anybody know if Royce is on the Rockets active roster or if he has traveled to any games yet. It's to bad his career got off to such a difficult start. I haven't heard much about him the last few weeks but I'm glad he wasn't putting out all the twitter info., although I haven't heard about this last twitter stuff.

    Not about Royce White, but since Rodney Coe is your commit now,try following him on twitter and get back to me. It's pretty juvenile stuff-but I'm an old guy. Would love you guys reactions.
