Heading into his senior season at the University of Tennessee, Admiral Schofield set a personal goal. By the end of his college career, Schofield wanted to be one of Rick Barnes' favorite players he ever coached.
It was a lofty goal considering Barnes has coached a number of great players over his career. In nearly two decades at the University of Texas, Barnes sent numerous players to the NBA, a list that includes superstars like Kevin Durant and LaMarcus Aldridge, current Pacers Myles Turner and Cory Joseph, and former Pacers T.J. Ford and D.J. Augustin.
Schofield will almost assuredly play in the NBA next season after a standout college career, where he helped Barnes rebuild the Volunteer basketball program into a national power.
