Rapper Percy "Romeo" Miller has officially signed on as a member of the 2008 University of Southern California Trojans basketball team.

Romeo, a 5'11 All-American point guard at Beverly Hill High School, will put all of his film and TV roles on hold, while he attends USC and earns his degree in business administration.

According to representatives for Romeo, he is is the first nationally known active Hip-Hop star to receive a full athletic scholarship.

Romeo's brother Vercy Miller is also signing with the Trojans, as well as standout shooting guard DeMar DeRozan of Compton High School.

He's alright. I don't expect him to ever be a starter at USC though, let alone even play much his first two years at USC. Rivals.com has him as a two star prospect, and Scout. com has him as a one star prospect. He's definitely not an OJ Mayo or anything.

Yeah, Master P tried out for the Charlotte Hornets a couple of years back...he was cut, then got signed by the Raptos, and was cut again.

I thought neither of his sons had decided where to play yet.

Both the Jordans got destroyed by Eric Gordon on ESPN not too long ago... Gordon dropped 43 points on their school and the two Jordans combined for 8 points.

 DePaul is one of his favorites, or thats what I've read on some websites and heard on DePaul radio. If not, most of his other schools are in the Chicago area, might go check him out even if he doesnt come to DePaul. I hope he does though, would give some interesting hype to the team.

Guess being an All-American doesn't take you as far as it used to...

Yeah I know. But that and various other people I've seen have called him an All-American.... I wouldn't be suprised if he didn't even make his All-State team. I wonder where they got their sources from.

Dunno, maybe they could've meant the All-State team, or All-District.
