There was one episode where these rec league guys had to play against the 6'8, 6'9 scrub white guys on Techs bench. and they got destroyed.
Since you're talking about college try-outs I'm assuming the try-out talent pool was limited to people who were enrolled in college. Those kids likely played HS basketball and were mediocre since they didn't already make the team.
It is naive to assume that all elite athletes actually were eligible students in high school, much less college. There's some diamonds in the rough, I'm pretty sure about it. None are going to enroll in college, though.
