UCLA's All-American Ed O'Bannon leads the UCLA Bruins to the 1995 NCAA National Championship over Arkansas by scoring 30 points and grabbing 17 rebounds.
I went to HS with him at Artesia. He was awesome. I think he should try to pursue coaching in the NBA. Obviously, start in College. He's already got HS coaching experience. ED, use your Basket Ball IQ to coach man.
@IntelInside2020 he had bone problems going into the nba, they all tried, especially ed but it his body couldnt stand the rigours of nba. He knew along with everyone else that the nba was going to be too tough. but he had a great college career and a lot of players that played in the nba for a number of years will never have the same impact on the game of basketball that ed did. its just a shame that the players cant earn money in the college ranks.
@ThePuwet, yes he is. His boss said in numerous interviews that nobody at the dealership works as hard as Ed. First one in, last one out, treats his car salesman job just like how he treated his basketball career.
Too bad UCLA didn't get Ed on extensive weight training plan-I guarantee if they did, he would 've had solid career in the NBA and not plagued by injuries
Yea and know he is sueing the NCAA for marketing him and his Bruins so much and not evening paying him. Thats a smart move on his part. Bout time the NCAA stopped free loading of it's players
