I had endured six years of frustration so I think winning it all meant more to me than most of the others on the team.

We ran an up-tempo, transition-style of game at Boston College - very similar to what we ran when I played for Arnold.

We played every night. Sometimes we'd stay overnight after a game, but we'd usually drive on to our next destination.

I won the city scoring championship as a senior.

That seemed to be the case with most of the teams based in the smaller towns - the fans were more rabid, and they wanted to literally kill the opposition.

The NBA wasn't a big deal at that time, so it wasn't really in my career plans.

Bob Brannum was my body guard on the court. He was 6'-6 and built like a bulldog.
