        I can read the headline now: "NBA Hall-of-Fame Point Guard VanVleet Turns Down Lucrative Broadcasting Career to Replace 10-Time National Champion HCGM at Wichita State."

            I have feeling Fred will still be relevant 15 years from know but the young man is pretty mature to understand that he will never be more popular or influential with youngsters then he is right now. But that in and of itself doesn't mean anything unless, like Fred, you are willing to share yourself with the community in such a caring and unselfish way. Simply an outstanding student-athlete and role model. Thank you Coach Marshall and staff for bringing Fred to us.

              • How great is this kid?

                At times it's hard to believe he's real.

                  "I not sure that I've ever been around a more competitive player or young man than Fred VanVleet. I like to win more than 99.9% of the people in this world, but he may top me." -- Gregg Marshall 12/23/13 :peaceful:

                  Remember when Nancy Pelosi said about Obamacare:

                  • He's got to be the most special person to ever where a Shocker uniform.

                    I remember a quote from his senior year after the recruiting picked up and he was asked if he was still committed to WSU. It went something like, "I'm going to go in and do whatever they ask me to do. If Coach wants me to pick up towels at the end of the bench then I'm going to be the best towel boy they ever had."

                          Voted.

                          • Wow, gotta love SN. I just voted and he's up to 72% of the votes (out of 81 votes). Keep it going Shocker Nation!

                            • Love this quote from the Daniel Kerry story:
                              “I want to be number one,” Van Vleet said. “Top 20 is good, but I’m trying to get the number one spot.”

                              The guy has unbelievable character and drive and I just love his attitude: "I want to be a more dominant player this year."

                              Well, let's hope we get a rematch with Kentucky in this season's Final game and Fred will have a chance to get that monkey off his back.

                              • Now 68% out of 101 votes.

                                Edit: This is strange. I just did a refresh of the web page and there are now 105 votes. But it has Fred with only 3% and Montrezl Harrell (Louisville) with 67%.
