When you say things like this about D1 assignments and NBA jobs, we'd like to know what facts you're using. Care to enlighten us?
Sure. I kicked some rules at a DI camp. It's not that I wasn't sure, it's just that I didn't get it done when it was my turn to step up. In fact, if I was a clinician or an assigner, I wouldn't hire me after some of the mistakes I made.

Here's the thing with me and what I've learned to date. Several years ago, I thought i was ready to do DI. Confidence sky high! After going thru the process a few times and learning the rule differences and then trying to put this all together in a high profile game. I acknowledge now, I am not ready. But each year, I get a little bit better, a little bit wiser, a little bit closer. One day, if I keep getting my chances at bat, I gonna hit that 95 mph fastball. One things for sure, I got no chance of hitting that pitch if i'm not in the batters box.
