my apologies to all you under 6'6" retards that told yourselves you'd be good if you were taller.  you'd have been good if you'd had skills.
This could be true.  A lot of kids that went to small high schools that were like 6'3" would have probably been C or PF.  Which means they practiced as a C or PF their whole high school career.  Maybe if their coach would have had them play the 1 or 2 they could have had better ball skills and shooting skills rather than pounding the block against other 6'3" small town C or PF.

This is the best thing that AAU has done.

At 6'-5" I was the second tallest kid that ever hit the court in my HS league for 4 yrs in 4-A KS ball.

LOL at UCONN even being ranked, let alone in the top 20....losses to UCF, Tenn, Cin, Seton Hall and Rutgers....i guess they did have a great win (in OT, at home) over FSU.

This is a big part of why I always say HS coaches are the rough ridin' worst. What you are describing happens at schools of every size.

Not sure how we got here, but I am not a fan of HS coaches.

Tallest kid on my Highschool team was 6 foot flat.  

Standing at 6'4 the coach asked me to go out. I told him to eff himself. In very nice terms. Too much running for my fat ass.

where the hell is the midget population you are from??

there were at least 5 kids 6' 4' on my 1-A team.
Sometimes I think of the Book of Job and how God likes to really eff with people.

That's why people say if they were taller they'd be good.  Because they are 6 foot with a post game.

such a weird thing, i feel like we suck so much of the time and we're still ranked.

college basketball is way down this year like this every year

http://kenpom.com/blog/index.php/weblog/state_of_the_game_2011/

even if scoring is down it doesn't mean the talent is down.  maybe we are just in a phase of college hoops where a majority of college coaches are stressing defense over offense.

Or a 5'11 4!!!!  :shakesfist: :shakesfist: :shakesfist:


The tallest guy we had pretty much all through my HS days was 6'1 and that may have been pushing it. Our whole team was between 5'10 and 6'1. Not that I would have been an all star anyway, but coming up playing the 4 spot at 5'11 didn't do anything for my three point shooting and ball handling. I can bang with people downlow better than some bigger than  me though.

So college basketball is down overall in a year that several top draft prospects returned because of the uncertainty of the NBA season? That's just absolute bullshit.

So did we, and we were 2A.  I was the smallest on the varsity roster at 5'11.  Wish we could have played some of your guys' midget teams.

If you really did play 2A ball, then you played at least 15 "midget teams" every year.
