This whole O.J. Mayo affair is probably not surprising to anybody who has a healthy does of skepticism about heavily recruited college basketball players' long-term goals and their abilities to make sound life decisions.

Mayo was busted for misdemeanor marijuana possession last night in Huntington, West Virginia.
