Quickly Learning the Tricks of the Trade

Mike Conley Sr. hasn't been an agent for very long, but it seems he is already behaving like a seasoned pro.
Conley the former Olympic athlete had two clients (his only two clients) taken in the first 5 picks of last season's NBA Draft. His son Mike and Mike's best friend, Greg Oden.
Now it is being reported that Conley wanted a top 5 NFL pick as well, and was courting Arkansas running back Darren McFadden.
Arkansas officials are investigating reports that Conley bought McFadden a new Cadillac Escalade.
This may turn out to be false as the station that reported the story has since retracted it.
But the fact remains the somehow McFadden got a new Escalade a few months before the draft.
Whether it was given to him by Conley or someone else it could cost McFadden the last game of his career, the Cotton Bowl against Missouri.
