Shareef O’Neal in a classy statement announced he was transferring out of UCLA.
Just wow. This is the most amazing transferring statement I can remember seeing . The line about “part of his heart” makes me like the kid even more. His giving credit to Coach Cronin for developing him is a class move.
Now what does this mean? Shareef was in a strange spot. He was a good outside shooter for his size but too slow to play small forward. On the other hand, he was tall enough to play power forward but too weak to rebound inside.
