And they got the wackest wannabe gangsters. Lot of black boys and men from good to great households who willingly take on thug cultures to prove their “blackness” to white boys, and impress white girls. It’s pathetic. Even in Ann Arbor you see it. The education performance gap in Ann Arbor between black and white kids is scary. You can’t blame that on all or most teachers being racist. They aren’t. But I’ve seen firsthand how black kids from those backgrounds reach a certain age and start mimicking behaviors you’d expect somewhere in Detroit, not safe ass Ann Arbor. Disrupting classes, not taking work seriously. I don’t get it.

Stoney Brook, north maple, south maple and Arrowood aren't rough enough to claim and be gangsta. I grew up with all them cats, and thankfully almost none got too deep into the game or ended up downbad.

Maybe but he was like 6’8-170. He doesn’t have great handles has negative wingspan and is supposed to be a great shooter who just shot like 32 percent against Division one talent

Gotcha, didn't follow much except seen that he was a top recruit. Agreed he would've needed to fill frame better if straight to NBA option was there. He prob would've got exposed during combine, but a team may have taken a late 1st - early 2nd round flyer on him

People acting like Ypsi is some hell hole but it’s easy to avoid bs there if you’re smart. Crime rate isn’t high. Just stay away from questionable apartments and avoid late night adventures. Lots of places to eat and do your thing.

Zero reason to have a gun there. Zero. If you’re that worried about safety you can stay near campus and have no issues. He’s done.

Exactly. If you're not buying or selling drugs in Glencoe, international, lake in the hood, or whatever they're all called now, or in ypsi township sus blocks, you're fine.

Being a gangsta type guy in ypsi arbor is a choice unless you were legit born into it in parts of ypsi or willow run. He wasn't.

Y'all both absolutely correct. It's just as easy to stay away from the dumb shyt up there as it is to find it. Unfortunately the ones that want to find it or skirt on the fringe of it usually do and it hardly ever ends well.

I knew his attitude was going to be an issue for him going back to hs, but I didn’t expect this at all. Only option for a career he got left is to bulk the hell up and get ready for the low tier American/overseas leagues

Oh now you confused :beli:My comment about Bates was in the Miles bridges thread. I said he looked off as a high schooler, a little rough for a 16 yr old, and you said it was “hoe ass shyt” , on some ‘my baby would never’.

Bates clearly looked the part of a ngga goin down the wrong path and people ignored it bc …idk, it’s not politically correct I suppose. Too scared to call a spade a spade
