Doneal Mack....MSU (U of M) Lucky Break or insult

The college basketball junkies all over town are drooling over the fact that Doneal Mack, who had signed to play at the NCAA Champion Univeristy of Florida, has now "decided" to play for MSU.

Should they be that happy though.....basically, Mack is coming to Memphis because he is academically ineligable for any school in the SEC. He's not "picking" Memphis, he's "settling" for Memphis.

If he had come in and said..."I'd like to play for Memphis because your academic requirements are low enough for me to get in"....would we be proud?
