Yes, he was. Shavlik was definately supposed the be "the guy" in that Duke Class.
Dude was a two-time Parade All-American and going into his senior season, was rated as the best high school basketball player in the nation.

I have to agree, when Turner came in people were acting like he was the second coming to Mike Williams

Yea Gutta, that's him. Hype had _'s thinkin' he was gonna destroy the Big East off the rip.
Ended up getting hurt then falling in Calhoun dog. Transferred to Fairfield then took off for Europe. His situation was the reason why Luol didn't eventake a sniff at UConn.

Solomon Tat. I remember seeing this dude in 2004 playing for Community Christian. They had a dream team of international players there. Dude was 6'5" 220, bullying anybody he wanted to on the way to the hole. Hasn't done anything at UVA.
Vincent Banks (2003 Mr. Georgia Basketball)
Was supposed to go to Cincy back in 2005, but couldn't qualify academically and that was after spending 2003-04 at Laurinburg Prep. The picture above is from 2007-08 when he enrolled at Georgia Perimeter College (JUCO) as a freshman
I saw him play a couple games with GPC and he was lightin it up. He didn't play with them last year and I have no idea where he's at now.
EDIT: Highlights of Vincent Banks! Homie would pull up from NBA 3!

I disagree. Staf had a "Good" college career. Obviously didn't live up to the hype, but he started all 4 years and was consistent.
dude was rated the best PG in his class
rated over guys like
CP3
Acie Law
Aaron brooks
Marcus Williams
and dude was a %!$$$*% BUM
Yeah he didn't live up to the hype, but he still had a "GOOD" College career. 4 Year Starter at the premier program in America for his position.Overrated? Yes. Bust? No

Amen.
Other than Nick Anderson, has anyones career been marked by free throws as bad as DWJ? The picture of him kneeling on the court with his head in his jerseygets me every time. Poor kid.
