William Buford Hires Herb Rudoy and Ron Shade of Interperformances

Earlier today, I reported that the Ohio State University’s forward Jared Sullinger signed with veteran agent David Falk.  His teammate William Buford has also selected his representation and decided to sign with Herb Rudoy and Ron Shade of Interperformances.  Rudoy and Shade have already signed 1st Team Associated Press All-American Draymond Green of Michigan State University and will also be representing him leading up to the 2012 NBA Draft.

DraftExpress.com ranks Buford, a former Mr. Ohio in basketball, as the 16th best Senior available and believes he will be a mid-to-late second round pick.  Ohio State counted on his play throughout the 2012 NCAA Tournament.  Interperformances is clearly excited to represent the guard, stating that he is “one of the greatest players to ever step on the hardwood at Ohio State University.”
