Here is a great interview with former Bulldog basketball legend, Mario Austin.

Mario is one of the all time greats! It’s amazing that he still feels like he let the fans down by leaving school early and that was 20 years ago.

He let me down at the time, but I forgive him. Wish NIL was a thing back then because we would’ve ponied up

He was the first of several that left early since 2000…..and not 1 guy panned out, not even close

It’s a butterfly effect thing, if Mario doesn’t go pro then you might not get Lawrence Roberts.

Man, I enjoyed watching Zimmerman play!

Lawrence Roberts was better, but to have both of them. Final Four type of team.

We would have never had Mario and Lawrence on the same team. I would have been interesting to see what team would have been like if Mario had come back for his senior year.

One of my all time favorites. That dude was a freak of nature. State basketball was so much fun to watch back in those days!
