Alex Tyus is a very intriguing professional basketball prospect. He really stepped his game up when it mattered most, racking up 19 points and 17 rebounds in the Florida Gators win against BYU in the NCAA Tournament and then 14 points and 10 rebounds in a tough loss to the Butler Bulldogs. Those 19 points […]

I am going on a year long trip around the world and will not be posting any updates to this site until 4/1/2012. April Fools? It feels good to have baseball again. It is too bad that the headlines will continue to revolve around the NFL/NFLPA labor dispute. I picked one Final Four team correctly […]
On November 1, 2010, Nathan Peake, a manager for professional boxers and basketball players (including Steve Francis), was booked for tax evasion.

Going into the season, I thought Syracuse had a fantastic shot at winning the National Title. As a #3 seed, the Orange still are in a nice position to make a post-season run; however, unfortunately for Scoop, Kris, et al., they have to make it through a very difficult East Region.

It is well known that I am a Florida Gators fan, but even I could not believe when it was announced that the Gators received the #2 seed in the Southeast bracket. The Gators have an experienced starting line-up with some very talented young players coming off of the bench. Even though the team lost […]

New York Knicks fans; be careful what you wish for. The past 48 hours in the NBA have been dominated by the Carmelo Anthony trade to the New York Knicks, and rightfully so. Despite all the Knicks gave up, this move HAD to be made and was a no-brainer for a playoff starved Knicks franchise. […]
Rudy Fernandez, Daniel Gibson, Serge Ibaka, Chauncey Billups, Marreese Speights, Kevin Garnett, J.J. Hickson, and Andre Miller have something in common. They all are primary clients of Andy Miller at basketball agency powerhouse, ASM Sports. Along with Miller, Justin Zanik and Andrew Vye hold down the fort at ASM. Not only does ASM represent many […]
Today marks Sports Agent Blog’s 5th anniversary. What started off as a 2005 New Year’s Resolution by yours truly, has turned into its own successful and profitable business, and a publication (call it “blog” – I am proud of that word) that has at least been discussed (if not read) by every sports agent in […]
