Chapter VII School Choice Decision

"Is it my turn?"

Russell Spliman, assistant coach of the University of Texas Longhorns, is responsible for recruiting freshmen.

Yesterday, he had just returned to the west from Washington and his plane landed in Los Angeles.

I heard that UCL organized a trial match, so I passed by and inspected it, and found a player who was in urgent need of the Longhorns.

He squeezed away Tim Floyd and stood in front of Li Ke.

Li Ke greeted: "Hello, sir."

"Hello, boy No. 88, I'll introduce myself first, Russell Spliman..."

Before Spliman finished speaking, he was interrupted by Floyd: "Spraiman of the Longhorns? Hey, you guy, you just took Kevin Durant from Washington, and are now coming to steal our California people?"

Kevin Durant, the University of Texas Longhorns, Li Ke's eyes lit up.

Spliman ignored the noisy Floyd and continued: "As the head coach of the USC said, we just won the second-highest student in the United States, Kevin Durant, plus Dexter Pittman, the 51st-ranked big center in the United States, we have a large number of young talents in the new season, and everyone will usher in a new beginning."

"If you choose the Longhorn, I can't guarantee that you will definitely get the main position. What I can guarantee is that you can get a fair competition opportunity."

"Of course, like USC, this is also an invitation to a full scholarship."

The University of Texas Longhorns, a member of the Big 12 Division.

Although he had never won in March Madness in the past, the Longhorns became a strong team in the Big 12 Division after coach Rick Barnes took office.

The NBA players who played for the team in recent years include Chris Meim, T.J. Ford, Royal Ivey, Daniel Gibson, P.J. Tucker and Lamarcus Aldridge.

In March Crazy this year, the Longhorns reached the Elite Eight, and in the four years before that, the Longhorns reached the Sweet Sixteen three times.

Let’s look at the Trojans of the University of Southern California. Tim Floyd took over last year and took the outside combination of Nick Young and Gabby Pruitt to achieve a record of 8 wins and 10 losses in the regular season of the Pacific Ten Colleges League, ranking only sixth.

The subsequent divisional championship was eliminated in the quarterfinals and missed the March Crazy.

Even if we count further, Southern California under Floyd's predecessor Henry Bibby (Mike Bibby's father), has been missing out on three consecutive months of madness.

After counting this, it seems that there is no suspense about how to choose.

But Li Ke did not give a reply on the spot, but instead informed Tim Floyd and Russell Spliman that he would make a decision after tonight and tomorrow morning.

Tim Floyd and Russell Spliman also expressed their understanding that this was a major decision, no one would have been hasty, and it was necessary to consider the time for a night.

"Sheldon, Sheldon!"

In the player passage, excited Westbrook rushed towards Li Ke, and the two hugged each other.

"I received an invitation from UCL. If I try out tomorrow, if I succeed, UCL will give me a full scholarship!"

Li Ke, who is also surging, can understand that Westbrook is about to touch his dream. It is impossible to say that he is not excited.

The difference is that Li Ke is very restrained and always just smiles, not so excited.

Not only is it caused by cultural differences, but also part of the reason is that Li Ke is very clear that ncaa is just the beginning...

"What about you, Sheldon, you played so well in this game, and you couldn't have gained anything."

“Two full scholarship invitations, the University of Southern California and the University of Texas.”

"South Canada? So you will stay in Los Angeles?"

"No, I prefer the University of Texas..."

Westbrook was silent, and Li Ke also knew that once he chose the University of Texas, he would say goodbye to the Westbrook family.

Farewell is always sad.

"However, I will go back to Los Angeles often. I have lived here for four years and Los Angeles is my second hometown."

Westbrook nodded, smiled, and then hammered Li Ke's chest with his fist: "Whether you choose USC or the University of Texas, we will be opponents in NCAA next season. I hope we can meet in March Crazy, UCL will win!"

"No, Sheldon Lee will win!"

At the end of the game, Westbrook stayed in West Los Angeles where UCL is located, accompanied by Old Westbrook and Aunt Holden. Only Renard Westbrook, who still needs to go to school, is left at home.

Li Ke traveled across Los Angeles and returned to Westbrook's home in Long Beach.

He also brought back two taco cakes as a midnight snack for him and Renard.

"So, Russell has basically confirmed to join UCL, what about you, Sheldon?"

Renard, who was unable to go to West Los Angeles, kept pestering Li Ke and asking questions, but Li Ke almost finished describing the entire process of the game.

“I haven’t made a decision yet.”

"South China University of Southern California, right in Los Angeles."

Reinard seemed to be trying to make a decision for Li Ke, but Li Ke stretched and shook his head: "I'm going to bed, and I'll make a decision tomorrow morning."

I slept like this all night. The next morning, Li Ke, who had fallen asleep until he woke up naturally, did not get up immediately, but lay on the bed and entered the system.

“James Harden: Friendship 2.”

After fighting Harden last night, Li Ke only gained 2 points of favorability, and it was not even hostile.

"There are many schools in NCAA. Even if it is a school in the league, it will only be four or five games in a season. It is too difficult to get 80 points in these four or five games. Instead, it is friendly. If you get 80 points in a season, you will have a great chance of winning."

After thinking about this, there is even more suspense about how to choose.

"Xiao Du's talent skills, and d.j. Augustine..."

In order of sequence, Li Ke first called Tim Floyd and politely declined the invitation from NanCanada.

Then he contacted Russell Spliman and accepted the invitation from the University of Texas.

"Warm welcome, Sheldon, in the near future, you will surely feel wise for your choice."

Russell Spliman briefly welcomed Li Ke, and then told Li Ke how to handle the admission procedures and key matters of admission, and everything was finalized.

After making the phone call, Li Ke turned over and got out of bed.

Pushing open the door, Renard happened to wash in the bathroom opposite.

"Have you made your choice?"

Li Ke nodded: "University of Texas."

After pausing, he immediately added: "I will go back to Los Angeles often."

Rainard didn't cry, he just sniffed: "Okay, Texas is not bad, at least, you and Russell don't have to be opponents."

"That's not necessarily."

“…”

Li Ke climbed into the attic of Westbrook's house through a small gap above the second floor passage, then opened the skylight of the attic and sat on the roof.

He took out his cell phone and dialed the Ocean phone.

"Hey, dad, it's me, Xiao Ke... I've chosen a university and I'm going to Texas, no tuition... Yes, full scholarship... Is the specific address? It should be Austin... Then, I won't go back during the holidays, it's okay for you and mom to be at home..."
