When Corey Hawkins was looking for a place to transfer after an unsatisfying
freshman season at Arizona State, his father called Les.
"I've known Corey since he was 4 years old," Les said over the phone.
"I know the character of that family, and his upbringing. Throw that in with the fact
that he's awfully talented and awfully skilled, I thought that was great to build on.
If he was going to come here, he could put us on a fast track."

Wouldn't be surprised if that picture was taken at Peoria High School. I used to go visit the Hawk up there when he came to town and it's great to see his kids have been so successful.

I think it was during one of their camps

Referencing Barkley in the story reminds me that Hersey's last game for Bradley was against Barkley's Auburn team down in Atlanta in the NCAA tourney. Hersey had a great game, but the Braves blew a late lead. That was one of the better trips our group went to over the years.
