LEARNING CURVE

Starks arrived at UC in 1987. He was a big-time scorer at Taylor, and the first day of practice with the Bearcats, he shot the ball almost every time he touched it. Yates stopped practice and tossed Starks the ball. “Here Keith, shoot it,” Yates said. He did. Yates gave it back. “Shoot it again.” Everyone was looking around, wondering what was going on.

Finally, Yates said, “Have you gotten it out of your system yet? Because you’re not going to shoot the basketball. You’re just going to go out and play as hard as you can, play defense and rebound. We have plenty of shooters.”

The first four games, Starks hardly played. It was a tough transition.
