Try to look at it a different way - which of the following situations would you rather have:
(A) Current: LBJ is an acquaintance of the program, runs some camps in the facility, spends some time in the summers playing with the Zips, and periodically is accessible in the off-season to the Zips. It's probably safe to say that every Zips player over the past 5-7 years has run some ball w/ LBJ. This most likely helps with recruiting and raises the level of play of the current players.
or
(B ) Potential: LBJ is convinced that it's time to back KD and the Zips financially with a big donation to UA in support of improving the basketball facilities.
I think the Zips have to pick between these two options, because once (B ) were to happen, I think we might find out that (A) would be an NCAA rules violation.
It's not as simple as many here think?
