Well, this is... absurd.

Kenyon Martin Jr., the three-star recruit who committed to Vanderbilt last month and, we assume, got to campus earlier this week, decided that he’d rather play professional basketball instead.
While we can’t necessarily blame him for thinking he’d rather get paid, there is the small matter of... oh, put it into words for me, Kyle Tucker of the Athletic.
Wait, what? Is he a pro at any decent level, in this country or others? https://t.co/KujV2PIVJ5

Yeah, there’s that.
Anyway, assuming this is correct... well, we have entered the universe of the absurd, where basketball players leave Vanderbilt to play professionally before they even play a game. And we thought last season was absurd.
