Lol
Paul Campbell- attended JC in arkansas before transfering to hawaii ..
Jared Mintz- Had top quality grades that helped him deeply with connections to get to lafayette .. he played for vaughn which is still a great school, it also helps that your a 6'8 230 forward .. which you dont come by very often here in toronto
Adam Folker- Being named to the "thomas report" all ontario 1st team, all ontario academic team, all canada 1st team, being credited as the top PF in ontario ... and being in the toronto star a few times doesnt hurt at all. Hes a diamond in the rough, who did great for himeself on and off the court .. you will never find a guy like that for a very long time, plus playing for a powerhouse team in markham where theres barely any basketball talent to begin with helps greatly
Chris Johnson- Another prep school tranfer .. who went to a community college in the middle of nowhere in texas to do nothing. Only one professional basketball player was ever produced from that school (francisco elson) .. i dont see why you think its a big deal going to school in the middle of an oil field
Shamus Ferguson- Mineral area college? Are you kidding me? This school is located in the middle of nowhere in the mountains in missouri and is barely established as a JC, realistically .. i dont call that a big success
Sorry coach, ive come across many talents and if they got anywhere with basketball they've had either connections, great academics, playing on a great REP team/HS team and had the determination to continue there dream by going to a decent school in the states or stay here and play in the CIS.
Need i say more?
Im not ragging on your development team, hey i wish you the best and i hope your team does well .. but by saying " Do you feel that you have the skills and mindset to attain a basketball scholarship? Then we have the program that will assist you in attaining your goal. " --- Clearly, this is false advertising and by saying those things, your just giving kids false hope
