Scoonie!
Jorge Sierra has the scoop on the latest goings-on in Penn's life.The highlight:
Penn: Maybe I should have left college early because apparently now the sooner you leave, the better your chances are in the NBA.
Scoonie led Ohio State to the Final Four in 1999. As an undersized guard, it probably would have been wise for him to declare early and benefit from being a hot commodity.
But Penn returned to Ohio State and, despite a solid season, slipped to the second round in the 2000 NBA Draft. He's since played for played for Trieste (Italy), Virtus Roma (Italy), Asheville Altitude (NBDL), Red Star Belgrade (Serbia) and now Cibona Zagreb (Croatia). Oh well.
