""Who exactly is WorldWide Wes and what does he do"? That question has been asked so many times that Wes himself may not know what he does anymore. William Wesley, pictured above with former NBA player Dajuan Wagner and former Kentucky assistant Orlando Antigua (blue shirt), has been in the background of the basketball scene at least since the 1980's."
"Nike isn't the only entity that won't comment on the legend known as "WorldWide Wes". College coaches aren't talking either. As one college coach anonymously put it, "I don't want to negatively comment on Wes because of the consequences it could have on our recruiting". Translation - "If I tell the truth, Wes will tell high school athletes not to sign with us."
When Rick Pitino was asked about basketball recruiting and WorldWide Wes he responded by saying "I've lost a lot of recruits to John Calipari at Kentucky". Say no more, Ricky. Say no more"
"As if this guy needs an introduction. Lebron was the Cleveland Cavaliers' 1st round pick in the 2003 NBA draft out of St. Vincent St. Mary High School in Akron, Ohio. He was formerly represented by Leon Rose of Creative Artists Agency. James is currently represented by childhood friend Rich Paul of Klutch Sports Group."
" I find it interesting that Lebron says that had he decided to go to college, he would have went to Memphis to play for John Calipari."
Lebron 2 Memphis.....I had No Idea
"Rose played under John Calipari at the University of Memphis for one season (2007-2008) and was the main culprit that landed the basketball program on probation due to the tampering of his test scores."
" Dajuan Wagner is perhaps the greatest prep player in New Jersey High School history. He is the son of Milt Wagner and like his father Milt, he starred at Camden High School in Camden, NJ. He played just one season at Memphis under John Calipari (2001-2002). Calipari revoked his scholarship to force Wagner into the NBA."
