“We received a call from the BB&T in Mount Holly from one of the tellers. They recognized a female subject that was at the bank attempting to do what they call a check deposit split scam.”
“Had he kept his nose clean and gone back to school next year, a first-round selection would have been a very, very distinct possibility. But now with all the trouble that he's had, from arrests, obviously, the on-field stuff, the maturity concerns, I think he's going to fall, for sure to day two, and I can see a case where he falls to maybe the sixth or seventh round.”
“The teams that might take a chance on him - maybe Atlanta. Maybe they gamble that his brother can keep him on the straight and narrow. Maybe Oakland. You never rule out Al Davis taking a shot on a talent like him.”
“It was a pretty good decision for him. He's got good size; he's fast. He's got a legitimate shot at the first round, and I'd be surprised if he fell past the second.”
“MCI has been a very aggressive, very innovative marketer against AT&T in this country. If the deal results in a situation where BT now has a significant influence on strategy and marketing, I think you'll have some friction,”
“This is clearly an important ... and watershed event for the entire industry, but it's no real surprise, ... Everyone figured Ameritech would be the first one out of the blocks on this.”
“Strategically, it looks better and there are certainly fewer cultural issues than with BT and MCI. It looks as though [WorldCom] is giving BT a way out of this deal,”
