[8] He was the conference Player of the Week on January 7, 2013 after averaging 14.5 points, 5.5 assists, 4.0 steals and 3.0 rebounds against Nebraska–Omaha and Alabama. [9]

Senior season

Mondy and teammate Dante Williams were arrested the morning of November 14 on rape charges in Culver City, California. The Los Angeles County District Attorney declined to press charges due to a lack of evidence. [10] Oakland conducted its own internal investigation and also determined that no crime was committed. [11] The players were suspended for two games for violating curfew. Mondy missed three games total, against California, Gonzaga and Louisiana–Lafayette.

Mondy received the inbounds pass under his own basket with 4.4 seconds on the clock. He dribbled the length of the court before hitting the pull up shot. Officials reviewed video of the play for approximately five minutes to determine if his foot was on the three-point line before confirming the attempt was indeed a three-pointer. [14]
