Lou Roe: Atlantic City Dreams to Pro Hoops Reality
Episode description
Our guest was born and raised in Atlantic City, New Jersey. He graduated from Atlantic City High School then took his talents 6 hours north to the University of Massachusetts, where he'd cement his legacy as one of the most recognizable student athletes to ever play for the program.
He was drafted by the Detroit Pistons which kicked off a 17 year professional playing career all over the globe. He's now the owner/operator of Hoop Nerds Basketball Life Skills Academy and a newly minted member of the Dribble N' Dimes alumni association 😝.
On this episode Lou Roe talks about...
- His climb up the basketball ladder
- The beef that materialized between he and coach John Calipari
- The challenges of taking advantage of education when you're a scholarship athlete
(best believe we had ourselves some post podcast Antonio's Pizza in Amherst... if you know, you know... FATCS)!
