re: Looking back at the late 1990's Louisiana High School Basketball Talent:

wasn't the red-headed dude for Indiana in the late 90's from anacoco ?

Juemichael Young was never close to NBA material. Torris Bright and Chris Duhon were levels above him. I went to school in the same district as all three players. Juemichael could jump out of the gym though.

The most talented of them all was juemichael young from Hammond supposedly.

Jeumichael young was not anything special in high school. I still have no idea why brady wasted his only scholarship that year on him.

Late 90s parkview basketball was as blatant as it gets when it comes to schools bringing in guys just to play sports. That school had probably only gone to the playoffs a couple times in its history and had maybe a handful of black people ever go there. Then in one year they have an entire team of star basketball players and are traveling around the country winning tournaments. Dirty.

The little rock 1999 Central high team which featured Joe Johnson, literally had bench warmers that went on to play D2 they were so loaded. they had joe at center


and believe it or not, actually fricking lost to north ltitle rock the school KeVaughtn Allen is from they had this point guard that you just couldn't do anything with i forgot his name. they played 3 times NLR won 2 but Central beat them in the championship by like 6.
