I'm not sure if there's anything to it, or if it's a hoax/exaggeration.

There are certainly worse things our MBB staff could be doing.

the Defenders have been run, I believe, by Aaron Harrison, Sr., the father of the 2013 McDonalds AA headed to kentucky. Other recent defenders that I know of include Shaq Clear, who averaged 12 minutes in 37 games (8 starts) for Maryland, and Christian Sanders, who averaged 9 minutes in 26 game (4 starts) for Stanford.

Reasonable to assume that any member of the Defenders could have earned 25mpg+ for last year's Owl team.

From what I've heard, a very large exaggeration and hence why it was pulled from the Chronicle.

Sounds like perhaps he didn't mean it literally...
