Any thug smart enough to get into Duke is already knee deep in hustling on the streets. The stupid thugs that can't hustle go play sports and end up in places like Cincinnati,Kentucky,Syracuse,UNLV and Michigan.

Alot of these inbred hick ra-tards

here on sbr like to throw that Term "Thug" around when talking about these young african american players when thats not the case. These Ads are doing background checks and good ones. This isnt the 80s or 90s anymore these schools actually check out who they recruit to bring on campus. Stop with that Thug non-sense its just racism.

Grant Hill is one of the classiest guys you'll meet in the NBA....guy is a gamer. He could of bailed years ago with his cash after big ankle problems...but he didn't. Meet the guy on the street he's a pretty gracious person.

I agree, OP was watching the documentary on the FAB 5 and what Jalen Rose was saying about Grant Hill's parents

i think the better question is: is daimoshokage a douchebag? the answer to that is clearly yes

add in kkk wannabe as well.

hill grew up well off and took advantage of his athletic ability to get a free ride to a great university for education and hoops. that's not being an "uncle tom", that's just using your head.

Fact is, you need the grades along with a game to play at schools like Duke. It's not like the Fab 5 could have played in the Ivy league either.

Somebody needs to tell Mr. King that 'teeth' is not pronounced 'teef'

Yeah let's all condemn the athlete who actually bothered to go to classes and pay attention. I don't know about you but I want college students to actually act and sound like they're educated.
Years later I'm still trying to figure out why AIverson could speak half decent English as a soph but that regressed by the time he graduated.

Grant Hill is a class act along with many of the former Duke players.

jalen used the wrong term to describe what he truly thought about duke recruits. he was speaking about more affluent, well-to-do black players from two parent households being recruited by duke.

his point about duke is valid, they don't really recruit his "persona" of athlete.

Comes across as bitter.
