I have a personal distaste for IMG. Alex Karaban attended the New Hampton School—my alma mater, a real, traditional New England prep school founded in 1821, that also happens to be a pretty big basketball school—for two years. He then transferred to IMG Academy for his “senior” year of high school. But, he reclassified his graduation and enrolled at UConn for the spring semester. I do not believe Alex ever wore a uniform for IMG, and, yet, in the press media, IMG is listed as his high school, as if they had anything to do with his development.

During the Butler game the announcers mentioned that Karaban and Butler's Telfort played together at NHS where they won a NEPSAC championship. Other notable NHS alumni include Rashad McCants, Lawrence Moten, Darius Songaila. (As a side note, Rashad McCants may not have had to do any college classwork at UNC, but I can guarantee he put in the study time at NHS.) Current D1 coaches who attended NHS include Ed Cooley (Georgetown) and Wes Miller (Cinncinati).
