Tyus isn't anywhere close to being the player Quinn is right now, young buck is going to have to sit a year and wait for his turn.

Street and Smith's from 20 years ago. Yes this is a terrible camera phone.

Couple of goodies from that issue.

Sorry for the pic quality. My scanner finally died on me and I'm not sure there is a reason to replace it...lol.

I'm open to taking requests if anyone would like to see the profile from their squad. Enjoy.

Felipe Lopez was the first high school player outside of California that I ever heard of while he was still in high school. Hype around him was crazy, especially considering the time.

They hyped him hard in the McD's game that year. Thought he could walk on water way they were talking.

**** he would've been out the league by now anyway.....while he cost himself money he kinda did improve so maybe he'll stick if he lands in the right situation 

kid is athletic so a team that pushes the ball might be his most ideal situation 

 

[worldbeefreeg]

Speaking of Felipe, huge article about him in the Daily News a few days ago, not a bad read if you have some minutes to kill

A.I. @ G-Town wearing Concords.

I'd have to think hard about that list Cake, too many great players.

 

[User 15002]

I have too much college basketball history stored up and sentimental value associated with different players to even begin a list like that.

 

[captainsneakerhead23]

same here .. great list tho Cake

 

[User 15002]

I've long been a sucker for players who didn't have great teams around them. Plus major homer bias as well with UK.

One player I always rooted for was Mark Macon. Not even sure why...lol.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Rashad Vaugh really seems to like jacking up shots.

 

[seymore cake]

Yeah it was far from easy... I've been thinking about it since the Uconn MSU game... And still feel like I left people off i.e. JJ Reddick and Randolph Childress. |I
