Dr. Tran used to have a statistical map of a basketball court in his office. It gave the probability of making a shot anywhere on the court. Not sure if he got rid of that when he threw out the life-sized cut out of Chuck Amato

I was at that game.

It was the Virginia Tech game and we lost by 20.

So no, it wasn't the best state game ever.

I was in Dr. Silverberg's office in December when he was doing this, he said he was working on the perfect height for the point of impact on a tennis swing as well... he said there are a lot of sport companies investing alot of their money into better technology in equipment.
