Randy was a very good high school athlete. He walked on with us and probably didn't like me too much because I kind of encouraged him to try baseball.

I'm tremendously optimistic about John's future and his ability to play the game. He's very bright, understands basketball, has great hands, is a good passer and has a nice shooting touch. He's well aware of the fact that conditioning will be a major factor in his development.
