When people say JB has forgotten more about basketball than anyone could ever hope to learn, it's actually true and not an exaggeration.  He has insane recall with anything related to the game.

I'm sure folks in here remember Adonal Foyle.  When Hamilton played in the state tournament his senior year the team they played in the semifinal was the alma mater of my parents, most of my family as well as all of their friends.  So my folks went down to watch them get utterly dominated by Foyle, even though they actually made a game of it at the end.  A family friend was an assistant coach that year so he had a front row seat to it all.  A few years ago said family friend was on a flight to Florida and happened to sit next to none other than JAB. Struck up a convo and he mentioned helping out on the bench with the team that played against Foyle back in 94 and JB immediately said "oh so you were helping coach Hermon-Dekalb? I remember you guys, pretty tough game wasn't it?"  JB was recruiting Foyle at the time obviously, but he still remembered everything about the game and the players involved with the opposing team, even at the class D level, nearly 30 years later.
