You never know who you’re going to run into at SEC Media Days. This year I bumped past the first college basketball player I can remember hating with a fiery passion, Ron Slay.
The Tennessee Volunteer was an SEC menace from 1999-03. He was .3 points per game away from averaging in double figures in all four seasons in Knoxville. Even though Tubby Smith’s Wildcats defeated him in five of six meetings, Ron Slay will always be a personal first in a long line of Tennessee villains.
Even though he was despised two decades ago across the BBN, he was a good sport in a conversation with KSR.
