Summary

He's still dunking.

Ten years after departing West Virginia as the eighth pick of the NBA draft, Joe Alexander continues a highly successful professional career that has taken him across the world.

Alexander has always been honest and extremely introspective and he continues that in this episode.

Now ten years removed from WVU, he tells the story of the naive freshman who enrolled in school with absolutely no understanding of how the game was played. He details how John Beilein, Bob Huggins, and the Mountaineer coaching staff helped him mature into an NBA Lottery selection.

This podcast will make you smile, shake your head, and gain an entirely new insight into one of West Virginia's all-time most memorable athletes.

Enjoy.
