Good luck to you Brandon. As an AZ fan I am disappointed that you will not be a cat next season, but unlike others, I will not attack you for making a decision in your best interest. I hope to here about your success in Europe and follow your NBA career.

yo, this DUMBASS got a 600 on the SAT. WTF???
Comment by Kobe Garba — July 12, 2008 @ 5:38 pm
bad choice to go to europe… Youve gone from being a lock top 6 pick in the NBA after an easy year at AZ to being heavily tested overseas and dropping out of the lottery. Even if you do well over there you simlply cannot shine as brightly as you could in the states. Surely agents must of have told you this and the only reason why your choosing EURO over the NCAAs is because you know you failed your test. Oh well

Brandon, do you like Rome? Only rumors?
Comment by Daje Virtus — July 13, 2008 @ 1:52 am
I don’t want you in Rome.
We need a player with experience.

No grazie !!

Hi Brandon, come to Rome, wonderful city and very good team. Israel is dangerous. Italian championship level is more competitive than israelian championship. with Coach Jasco Repesa you’ll improve your play for reaching NBA with more experience

Brandon Jennings you’re my favorite player in the world!!!! I’m serious!!! I’m unhappy to find out your going to play in Europe, but forget everybody I know you gon eat on them boys. I’m only 15 and hopefully I’ll get to meet you one day. I wanted to go to oak hill because of you, but that might not work out but eat over there then enter the draft next year and I’ll definitely buy your jersey. I’m wishing to follow in your footsteps one day, but keep up the hard work.
Your BIGGEST fan,
Eric McClellan

Therefore Roma is waiting you!!!! Ciao

Dang I wanted to see Brandon at Arizona that wouldve been crazy good luck in Europe BJ
Comment by Jdub — July 14, 2008 @ 8:11 am
You are so stupid for going to europe. You suck!
Comment by Mr. X — July 14, 2008 @ 10:36 am
He should consider a German Team. The German league has become very competitive over the past years, dominated by Americans. Germany is most similar to the USA relative to other countries like Italy or Spain and everybody speaks English. Alba Berlin is a club that would certainly have the money. On the other hand Spain is a good choice, too. Ricky Rubio has been playing there for a few years now and is about his age…

Funny how we haven’t yet heard about him passing the SAT. If he had passed, I’m certain Young Money (ha!) would have it all over this website. I’m getting Young Money scored another 620. Good work, slick!
Comment by Bryan — July 15, 2008 @ 2:04 pm
congrats! hope you do well and pick the best place to live. Remember, you will only be there for a short period of time and actually it would be more fun than the US. People here in our country hating because we are broke. Take advantage of life’s opportunities. You could always go to England to play. There is no language barrier, they are closer to the US and have a better quality of life. Anyway, whatever you choose, make your choices based on your own decisions.
Peace and good luck,
T

BRANDON…. GO TO ROMA….THEY ARE SURE SHOWING YOU ALOT OF LOVE UNLIKE CRAZY RACIST ARIZONA. THEY SURE CAN SHOW JUST MUCH HATE THEY HAVE…WHO WOULD WANT TO BE IN THAT KIND OF ENVIROMENT. NOW I CAN GO TO ITALY TO WATCH THE EUROPEAN TEAMS, INSTEAD OF ARIZONA. ALSO CONGRATULATIONS ON PASS YOUR TEST WITH A HIGH SCORE
ALL THE BEST, SEE YOU IN EUROPE.
Comment by A BRANDON FAN FOR LIFE. — July 15, 2008 @ 6:28 pm
I hope you enjoy getting owned in Europe. You are going to get destroyed by veterans with less physical talents but more savvy for the game. You could have developed that that savvy if you played for a good coach and program. Unfortunately Young “ghetto nig” Money,” has decided he is a pioneer…. all because you are too dumb to qualify via SATs
Comment by Julio — July 15, 2008 @ 6:33 pm
Brandon, I saw you when you came to the Campbell Center in Houston and you were AWESOME !!!! Keep going kid, you have alot to offer and I have really enjoyed watching you – Never listen to what “stupid people” have to say….Life is short so live it to the fulliest…NCAA is so full of ?&%$… Do what is best for you and stay ENCOURAGED !!! You are a Superstar and so so Talented !!!!
Comment by Sharod — July 15, 2008 @ 9:18 pm
F you Jennings. I hope you tear your ACL’s. I hope you don’t make it in the NBA you greedy son of a bitch. F you.
Comment by Go Cats — July 15, 2008 @ 11:45 pm

I think you a monster on the court.And i like your signature pass.I think you will be much better than the other players because you be playin ball all the time. You go to rome and kill then come back to the states and get pick high in the draft.
