Message: [QUOTE="Husky Alien, post: 4067698, member: 11361"] Cliffy's stats for his 4 years at UConn: 1985 = 5.6 Pts, 3.1 Reb, .05 Ast 1986 = 18.0 Pts, 7.4 Reb, 2.0 Ast 1987 = 17.6 Pts, 6.9 Reb, 1.3 Ast 1988 = 20.0 Pts, 7.4 Reb, 1.5 Ast Donyell's Stats for his 3 years at UConn: 1991 = 11.1 PTS, 6.1 Reb, 1.5 Ast 1992 = 17.0 Pts, 7.8 Reb, 1.1 Ast 1993 = 25.0 Pts, 8.9 Reb, 1.6 Ast So really not a big difference between the two of them. IMO, Cliffy dropped in the NBA draft had a lot to do with his dedication to playing hard was in question. This is a quote from a SI article about him and the draft in 1989. "Come the 1989 NBA draft, the word on Cliff Robinson was not good. The word was that Robinson, then a senior at Connecticut, was the biggest dog since Sgt. McGruff. A hound. The general managers, the scouts, they all agreed that he was talented. But sometimes these drafts become word-driven. And word was, this kid belonged on a leash."

Cliffy ended up in the NBA. Donyell's back court consisted of: KO, Scott Burrell, Brian Fair, Doron Sheffer and Ray Allen through out his career at UConn. He certainly was not a 'churl" you say. The meaning for that word has no direct impact regarding Cliffy. churl /CHərl/ Learn to pronounce noun an impolite and mean-spirited person. a miser. a person of low birth; a peasant. [/QUOTE]
