Just read that Mikey Smith who turned down a lot of teams in favor of Memphis was arrested in San Diego on multiple charges involving assault with a gun. Who is Mikey Smith? Probably Mikey Williams in disguise.

Tidbits from SDUT www.sandiegouniontribune.com/sports/high-school-preps/story/2023-04-14/man-fitting-local-basketball-star-mikey-williams-description-arrested-on-gun-chargesHOW does an 18 YEAR KID buy a $1.2MM Home? HOW does he get a loan/mortgage? Where are his parents? The San Diego County Sheriff’s Department said Friday that the shooting occurred just before midnight March 27 at a house on Bratton Valley Road in Jamul, an unincorporated area in the eastern part of the county. Williams purchased a 3,700-square-foot home there last summer for $1.2 million and was living in it with a teammate. Williams moved into the $1.2 million Jamul home on five acres of land with an infinity-edged pool and a tennis court. “There was a verbal argument about guests in the house being asked to leave,” the sheriff’s news release said. “Five people got into a car and as they were driving away, shots were fired. The car was hit, but no one was hurt.” Three of the passengers in the car were minors, the release added.

Sure glad we don't have the kind of money in the Mesa Foundation for hired gun-slingers like Mikey Williams.

Another Memphis fiasco. Remember James Wiseman? They're selling their soul to try and get into a power conference. LOL

Find a team with great NIL but the worst team chemistry & you have your new program for Williams & Taylor, assuming both even play college ball next year. New Mex would be an interesting landing place with House & Baker both out of eligibility, and being a team that turns over their roster yearly.

Williams and Taylor sound like a perfect fit for UNLV. Can't imagine either of them every getting into trouble in that town.
I wonder how much of the interest in Taylor was to get to Williams. Anyone know what Taylor got suspended for? It says disciplinary reasons so I guess it's not academics.
Boy, if you're too messed up to stay in Memphis, you are REALLY messed up. I can't imagine Dutcher ever, ever being interested in either of these two buffoons.

Easy to look at the end result and shake one’s head. But….the young man has likely been told since he became a teen that he walks on water, all of the social media, people throwing money at him, etc. I don’t know what his home life is like or who was mentoring him or even giving him advice but it sounds like some wrong turns were made. We are talking about a teen with a house and a bank account that likely has numerous zeros. Throw in a bunch of hanger ons with questionable motives and I can see how he got to this point. I think back when I was 16 & can’t answer how that would change me. One thing I hopefully know is that under no circumstances would I be holding a loaded gun shooting at a car. I really hope he figures it out, I’m hoping he gets a second chance & takes advantage of it.

Not to toot my own horn but I called this when he was a sophomore. Had obvious (severe) attitude problems when I went and saw one of his games and I said so on this board. Hope he figures it out, but I doubt it

I saw him at the Torrey Pines Classic Tournament. He was amazing but it was ALL about him and his shots and dunking and strutting. He played zero D most of the time.
I thought the same thing. There was no way he wasn't just going to get worse as a teammate and probably as a citizen.

There’s no way we are recruiting him. He would be a huge headache.
