I don't have a clue who y Ben Goren is but one thing I do know from reading the article he wrote....

The below quote shows he knows nothing about Mitchell Robinson or CUSA. While CUSA might not be made up of big bodies or great bigs. The conference a helluva lot better than the 5'4 guards weighing in at 142 pounds and the 6'6 shinny kid weighing a buck 60 MR faces most nights in high school. One other thing...coaching matters. Again CUSA might not have great coaches they are a lot better than anything MR seen.

Quote:What would have been a reasonable goal for his production? 23 points, 14 rebounds, and four blocks a night? Is that not even high enough?

There's no sour grapes on my part...I never believed this kid was ever going to come close to the hype some Western fans put on him. Some thought he was better than Big Mac. Who was a 3 time collage All American for Western

Playing against grown men is a lot different than below and those MR faced in allstar games....where defense and putting a body on you was not even a after thought. By the accounts I read MR was winded by the time the 4th qt when his team played and lost (large margin) to a bad KY high school team in a BG tourney

He was definitely winded in the 4th quarter of that game, but they were not playing a "bad" Kentucky high school team. Ballard pent the entire year in the Top 10 state rankings and played a very much havoc style run and gun. Most players were winded playing them. I'm no MR fan, but he's done enough to embarrass his name lately, we don't need to make up things to make him look bad. He's taken care of that himself.
