There isn't a college in the country that
wouldn't mind having St. Louis schoolboy
prodigy Kalen Grimes as its starting
power forward in two years, Mike
Seely writes in Riverfront Times. "But
wooing prep hoop talent these
days is a lot like courting a potential
sweetie-pie. If you remember the orchid
and box of chocolates on date one, you
might flip skins by night's end. Show up
all by your lonesome with only the merits
of your program and a beat-up Ford
Taurus, and you'll end up sharing a bed
with the January issue of Hustler and a
squeeze bottle of hand lotion," Seely
says.
