John Wall should stick to basketball

… because this young man seems familiar, but for the life of me, I can’t quite place where he played his 4 1/2 months of college basketball. I vaguely remember the jersey that he wore being a cool color, but that color could have been green, purple, blue. God, this is so frustrating; when these young men only spend a few months in a program, it is difficult to connect their accomplishments to the university that they briefly attended.

However, your reference to Joe Mazzulla is easy for me to understand because he spent a significant amount of time at West Virginia University playing basketball for Bob Huggins and John Beilein. I do remember that he had a phenomenal first half in an Elite Eight contest against the University of Kentucky Wildcats in March of 2010, the young man’s Junior year. I remember thinking at the end of that game that I felt sorry for those young boys on UK’s team, but that with time, collective effort, and more college experience, they would grow to become fine young men and a great basketball team. However, I think the team was ultimately dismantled for some reason.

Hey Mike, any updates on what those student-athletes from UK are doing with their time and their amazing athleticism?

I’m pretty sure he could slot in as our 3rd starter.
