Interesting quote from Griffin:
“When I went to Tulsa to play for (former coach) Frank Haith, I was supposed to play point guard,” Griffin said. That’s why I went to Tulsa, to play point guard, because I can score really well, and I was the best scorer on the team probably, but he put me at the No. 2. I was like, ‘Man, I can pass.’
“I was stuck playing the two, and you can’t transfer again (until you graduate). By that time, Frank Haith had left and went to Memphis. I was like, ‘Man, I have to pretty much stay here until I graduate.’ I was playing the two the second year, so when I graduated, I knew I had to get back to playing the one, because that’s my position, but people don’t know that, because, when I was with Frank Haith, I got stuck playing the two."
It didn’t take long for Sam Griffin to get familiar with University of Wyoming legend Hunter Maldonado.
