They have a great player, he makes unbelievable shots. Most people don't make those shots.
conference overall tournament
It's probably odd. You shouldn't be able to play in a prestigious tournament if you are under .500. You take a conference like ours, to get to .500, it's unbelievable. With conference record, you could be under .500, but overall record, you should be over .500.

All through the recruiting process his dad was involved, but he wanted to let his son make his own decision. He didn't want his son to come to St. John's because he felt pressure to come to New York. His son made his own decision and I think it worked out pretty good for him.
