For months now, the focus of Louisville basketball recruiting has been on Tyreke Evans, a high school star at American Christian Prep School in Philadelphia. Evans, consistently ranked among the top three players in the country, averages 36 points per game.
The Cards should stop recruiting Evans immediately.
Tyreke Evans was involved in a drive-by shooting in Philadelphia on Nov. 25 that ended the life of a man allegedly involved in a rival gang with a grudge against one or more of the passengers in Evans’ vehicle. According to witnesses, shots were fired by Jamar Evans from the back seat in Tyreke’s sports utility vehicle toward the victim at a house across the street.
Not saying Tyreke Evans is an accomplice to murder, though any motivated prosecutor could easily make that charge. The vehicle did leave the area, however, and no assistance was provided to the victim, apparently just left to suffer or die. No 911 calls were made from the fleeing vehicle either, according to police reports.
Louisville should not be pursuing an individual unable to take the proper actions when the right decisions are so obvious.
