Butler’s Gordon Hayward vs. Young Jeezy

Ok, no Jeezy, just Butler’s Gordon Hayward.

So I want a new #20 Butler Jersey.  No lie.  He grinds, is fearless, and is a 6’9” guard who used to play tennis in high school.  Now that’s a new kind of two-sport athlete.

Two things to check out:

1/ An article from Rivals talking about the potential of Hayward going pro.

2/ A rap by Hayward and his friends.  Sure it is ridiculous, but check out the lyrics (lifted from The Mid-Majority). Listen around 1:44:

But it’s not about me, it’s about the team; 
Going to the tourney with a full head of steam; 
‘Chip’s real close, it’s at our back door; 
Get a few dubs, we’ll be in the Final Four; 
Not stopping there, that’s not in store;
Push it to the limit, we want more.

It’s almost like a c-teamer from the Cash Money crew got to drop a verse on a mixtape.

Bring it on from Indy.  Go Butler.
