So I fished this bass tournament Saturday and ran into a guy wearing a "Royalton basketball" hat, which is where Spellman played for two years here in Ohio, as we were tossing back our fish after weigh in. I told him I noticed his hat, and said "you must be familiar with Omari Spellman." He said, "oh yeah" and didn't really give me much more. I explained I'm a Villanova fan and was just curious if he had any thoughts on him. He said "he does some amazing things on a basketball court you can't teach" and I got the sense he didn't want to speak about it for some reason. Thought maybe he wasn't that friendly, so I decided to just wrap it up and said "so we're getting a good one?" and he said "if he can stay eligible" and that was the end of it.
Got the guy's name from another guy in our bass club. Turns out this guy was the head coach at North Royalton while Spellman was there. Sounds he's a little salty at Omari for transferring and leaving him without his stud player. Either that, or Jay may have his hands full.
