Playing freshman year,etc. He would have been even more prolific at UConn.. Side story..After his senior season he went on a 'barnstorming tour" around Ct with his UConn teammates who had also graduated and could make money as "pros".. Walks into a gym in Simsbury he had never been to..Plays vs the East Hartford Explorers..A semi-pro BB team made up of former college BB players.. Many of whom were All-Conference in their own respective leagues while in school.. Drops 55 pts on them with defenders all over him.. Many of his made buckets were beyond today's CBB 3 pt line..Was there and saw it myself..Pretty impressive.. Another player from this era who would have held his own in today's BE ..Led the NCAA in rebounds ..Was Toby Kimball.. [/QUOTE]
