Can someone tell where Sikes played his high school ball? Is he orginally from California?

[Da Coach]

He is originally from Virginia and was a highly recruited prep out of Notre Dame Prep, Richmond, Virginia.

Well, since he decided to go to a JUCO in California, distance from home probably won't be factor for him...which helps Bradley and Minnesota.

Hopefully Sikes saw that there could be a major opening in the starting lineup at BU for him, and that he could step in immediately and be a focal point. That is, if the Cincinnati people allowed him to hear the news of POB's departure.

Funny how much info they use from the pjs........wonder why MS isn't visiting Arizona State if he really wants to play in a warmer climate?
