Even in our sophomore year when we were on JV together, it was the first time he had every played organized [basketball]. Where he's at now is incredible. His size and his height are such an advantage, and he's taken it further than I ever thought he could. He's made a lot of progress. |
It was especially tough for me, because I had to play the post position. It was a totally different spot. It was tough because you didn't have that security of rebounds of course— he's in double digits a night, plus we couldn't get the ball into the post. That's why we struggled against teams like Decatur, which have big post men. |
When Chris shoots — he was shooting the last-second shot for a reason. It went off the top of the glass and I thought, 'Well, it's hopeless now because Chris missed it.' Collin grabs it and puts it back in and it was like just shock for a second. Then, it was sheer craziness. |
