This begs the question

Why did he pick BYU over Clemson or FSU for basketball?

He's LDS

His high school coach said he felt comfortable on campus, and he liked the surrounding areas of campus. He also said that being LDS wasn’t a big reason, but that’s like saying looks aren’t a big deal in choosing your wife or husband. Yeah right! BYU wouldn’t be on his radar if he wasn’t LDS. But, huge kudos to Rose and Co., for staying dedicated to Damarcus while he was jumping over guys and throwing it down on the east coast (what, you ask? 30 secs in on the YouTube video…)

So he's already graduated from HS?

No...2011

I know the YouTube clip shows 2010, but ESPN and Rivals all have 2011, which makes more sense.
Looks like he doesn’t have a big career as an editor ahead of him…
