up in my grades in 1972 --- stayed out a year to get my head together and save some money by working 364 out of 366 days --- went back to school a year later and graduated in 1975. I want you to know that you can get this turned around --- studies, basketball, and anything else that got caught up in this spiral of confusion. Been there, done that, and my life has worked out reasonably enough. Obviously, anybody taking a cheap shot at you tonight does not warrant having their thoughts on the matter considered even for a moment. Wishing you the best in all things.
