Gray was a troubled young man due to early negative life experiences but always was a baller. The Jones system of ciaos was no good for him (nor was it for anyone else). Good for Josh Gray! Garrett Temple developed into the most polished NBA star from that 2006 Final 4 squad. Who would have thought that was going to happen?!? I hope Gray can find great success too. Geaux Tigers!!!

I always knew he had talent. He had almost all of his best games against good teams. For whatever reason, those were the only games he appeared to be focused in.

I’m more surprised by this than I would be if Danny Etling gets drafted in the 3rd round.
