[QUOTE="dbeverly26, post: 1455173, member: 515868"] George was a specimen, but maybe of a different sort...I recall Lou talking about how they needed to hide the cinnamon rolls on the training table when he came in. He was my favorite player on those teams, though. Funny to think about a time and place where athletes were a bit less serious about nutrition and fitness, isn't it? We've had plenty of post players who were plus athletes over the years, don't get me wrong. Myers Leonard was certainly one, though of a different type than Kofi. I just don't recall anyone who looked so completely out of place playing alongside high school kids, and I mean that in a very good way. [/QUOTE]
