"What might have been" with David Robinson

The Admiral is acknowledged as one of the best big men ever to play the college or professional games. However, as far as college is concerned, one wonders how he might be regarded had he played for one of the elite programs. He carried Navy to the Elite Eight. The recruiting limitations that afflict the military academies are well known, so his supporting cast was not what he might have had at a big-name school. For myself, I am glad he went to Navy. He did not win an NCAA title, but he stands high (literally and figuratively) in my estimation for doing what he did.
