Curry was the most hyped out of them all. Dude made the mistake of trying to play both sports a UNC.

He was amazing in HS though....

Shoulda went to UVA instead of UNC. Curry was aight for my Raiders that catch he had in the snow in Denver is still :whoo: to me. shyt was my wallpaper for almost a year. :laugh:

I dont see how you can flip the first point :manny: its a fact. Im a vehement opponent of judging players by their measurements no homo, but at qb position can't be very short...with few notable exceptions, most elite qbs...fukk that, most nfl qbs... are tall :manny:

The whole 757 was a hotbed for athletes so when I heard this I wasn't surprised. Wasn't Ronald Curry more of a sensation at QB than even Vick and AI back in HS? Or was that just grandstanding by some Curry stans?

No grandstanding. Anybody who came up in the 757 who saw them all play will tell you Ronald Curry was the best of them. He fukked around and tried to play both basketball/football at UNC though and it didn't work out for him as well as everyone expected. He still enjoyed a decent NFL career; which A LOT of people would give up everything they have for.

The anger my ex from VA Beach had for that niqqa when I met her would baffle me until she explained how he played VA to play for UNC.

I still think AI would have made a good corner

I think he would have as well. The only reason I've always said Iverson made a better decision with basketball (or I guess the decision was made FOR him) is because he became one of the all-time greats there, maybe the most popular player of his generation, became an icon in hip-hop, and made, what, probably more than $200 million. That was happening in the NFL even if he was the best cornerback of his generation.

Still, it woulda been crazy if he had been on some Deion/Bo type shyt.
