I didn't know Scottie Pippen was a walkon. That's interesting.

According to wikipedia:
Quote
Pippen attended Hamburg High School. Playing point guard, he led his team to the state playoffs and earned all-conference honors as a senior. He was not offered any college scholarships. Pippen began his college playing career at the University of Central Arkansas in Conway as a 6'1" walk-on. He did not receive much recognition in college because the school played in the NAIA. He eventually had a growth spurt to 6'8",[15] and his per game averages of 23.6 points, 10 rebounds, 4.3 assists and near 60 percent field goal shooting earned the Central Arkansas senior Consensus NAIA All-American honors in 1987, drawing the attention of NBA scouts.[16]

I want to say AllDaz but that was the DC line Beasley loved.

I can't remember and I can't find it anywhere on any layer of the internet. It's killing me. I remember them talking about it in one of those senior video Q&A things they showed in the bram.
