Finding Big Country

I'll just guess he moved back to Oklahoma and ranches down there somewhere.
 
From the title, I thought this thread was going to be about an old Okie State basketball player...

"17 years after controversial Vancouver Grizzlies NBA star Bryant ‘Big Country’ Reeves leaves town"

I don't remember there being anything controversial about him unless you hate crew cuts or lumbering giants. Am I forgetting something? Did he say some racist ****?

The grizzlies were bad and I think he was a first round pick. He didn't have the skills to carry a team and was probably a lower round one or top of round two pick.

And its when the grizzlies left town.

Yeah, I'm sure they were bad. They were an expansion team and he was their first pick as a franchise. But if you look at the draft in the year he was picked, it's not like they missed on anyone special other than Michael Finley. It just wasn't all that great of a draft class.

yeah, I didn't look at who there was. I just know he was kinda stiff and not who you build a program around most often.
