All I will say is that if he is successful at the next level, it will not be because of his talent. It will be because he changes his attitude.

Peace

And he still has another year in high school, right? Imagine that lucky coach.

Yes, but if talent meant everything, he would not have lost in the championship game. You could make a case that he was the most talented player on the court that night and he did not win. That being said, when he gets to college everyone is going to be better and have a much higher work ethic. College is not going to be a cake walk. There are a lot of talented high school players we hear nothing about when they get to college. If his attitude does not change, he will just be another name.

Peace

JR: Agreed. Never thought the time would come I'd have to be even more sarcastic than usual. Thought that one was dripping right out of your computer onto your keyboard.

Mr. I'm All-World Now A Senior And Already Have My D-I Scholarship is probably going to be no picnic to try to direct in games (yet alone practices) in 09-10. Just one person's strong hunch.
