    Well it is old, but I didn't remember it being posted here and a quick google turned up nothing. I only saw it while thumbing through a SI at the barber shop today. (Hey that looks like Royce White... oh **** that is Royce White)

    "As the needle purrs, the bushy-bearded White talks. "I'm all about transparency," he says. Topics include: the known universe ("Have you heard about the Eagle Nebula? It's a gaseous pillar, 7,000 light years away"); existential philosophy (he's fond of quoting Nietzsche)"

    "The rumination doesn't end there. He also faults the league for inspiring so many inner-city kids to futilely devote their lives to basketball, adding, "I'm not scared of how David Stern is going to react when he hears that I said that." Instead of attending the draft, White is throwing a party in Ames to raise more money for Orchard Place."

    Obviously if this has been posted then lock it up and my bad, but yeah. Worth a read. Very very intriguing guy. Obviously if he has to go for Bynum or Howard then yeah you have to take that deal, but I will be disappointed.
