re: Tide Hoops | Offseason

I don't think people realize how good walk-ons are at that level.

I was a decent high school player. Was a very good shooter, ok handle. I played kinda the same way Sears does. Used my wide shoulders and leverage to make up for my speed.

I attended a NCCAA, not NCAA, school and played a few pick-up games with the men's bball team. Those guys absolutely kicked my arse every time we played. I felt like a 2nd grader playing against Highschoolers. I couldn't do shite and couldn't defend shite. One of the guys was a former McDonalds All-American. They were roughly the equivalent of a NAIA school. A PWO at Alabama would probably dominate at the NAIA level.

As Brian Scalabrine likes to say; "I'm closer to LeBron, than you are to me".
