[I]You coulda been anywhere in the world, but you’re here with me[/I]
[I]I appreciate that… [/I](Jay’s lyrics from H to the Izzo) Well Jay, the feeling is mutual.
When Jay-Z speaks, people listen. Ask Ace of Spade champagne, Maybach Mercedes, the list goes on.
So when Jay chose to spend (part of) his New Year’s Eve with the 24 thousand in attendance at Rupp yesterday, it was no small statement.
You may say that UK basketball is world renowned in its own right, and doesn’t need an endorsement from the self proclaimed God Emcee J-Hova, but again, ask Mercedes how it worked out for them.
More importantly, the nation’s top basketball recruits how they feel about it. Or maybe our own Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, who had this to say about the fact they Jay left Rupp with a #14 Uk jersey in hand.
[I]”He had my jersey in his hands…I can’t really explain the feeling.” [/I]
