Most law schools let you defer enrollment for at least a year - so if he wants to test the waters with basketball, he'll have the opportunity.

He would make a great assistant coach while he was in law school. Does this sound familiar?

I'm pretty damn excited about it. If he wants basketball, I hope he defers, but from what I've heard, he's been interested in law school since entering Georgetown in the first place. He can have all my notes, books, and whatever else he wants.

That's great news. After Amadou at UVA Law now we have two guys in law school in two years.

Maybe you should start playing basketball for the #4 team in the nation so you'll have similiar extracurriculars.

It just goes to show you that we do really well graduating players that stay four years... I hope he tests that waters, but i am glad he is making the most of his years at gtown and graduating with a real degree and using his scholie to really improve his life. -M

did anyone notice that the National Anthem at Verizon ended today with a long close-up of J-Wall on the Jumbotron, which then faded into an image of the American flag waving and then a shot of the Capitol? whether it was intentional on the part of VC staff or not, i couldn't help but wonder if it was a sign of things to come...

Actually got accepted around end of July, but was kept quiet. J Wally will be a fine lawyer, judge, etc. if he chooses. I personally think he'll make an excellent coach. Knowledge of the game is impressive.

It would be wonderful to have another Hoya turned US President. And this "Mr. President" would be one easyed would support!

Congrats... On his way to the U.S. Senate... A Senate gig wouldn't be a good place for someone with presidential ambitions. "Governor Jonathan Wallace" -- what a story that would be.
