Back on track with this thread, Gordon posted yesterday that he signed with an agent so he is giving basketball another chance. From hoops to a firefighter to an EMT to real estate agent and back to hoops. Hope he makes it this time for his sake, he really has been chasing this dream for a while. He'll be 26 in December.

It's Official. About To Sign With An Agent. Let The Journey Begin
This is the only reason to keep posting in this thread.

The rest of the recent posts should be flat out deleted, but I don't have time to play board police today.

Not the police. The owner.

Randomly came across this bit of news today, after several years trying out new career paths Derrick Gordon signed to play professional basketball in Cypress. Good for him!

Good to see. And in my COVID-induced spirit of sharing meaningless discoveries, I see Apollon has another interesting (and much looser) connection to our past. Did enjoy watching him play for Cal at Memphis.
