A look at what life is like at famed boarding school Oak Hill Academy. Located in remote Mouth of Wilson, VA, this follows the 2018-2019 basketball team members ahead of their season.
It's a honor to live in same county as oak hill when it comes to basketball it makes Grayson County high where I went with are good years makes us look like a 8th grade team
Wow this takes me back haha. Real talk though, unless you're a Gold Team player like these guys, DON'T go here! It's about $40,000 a year to go to a very prison like structure in the literal middle of nowhere where the academics are VERY weak overall. DON'T. GO. HERE! I speak from 3 years of experience (August 2012- May 2015). I'm also rather disappointed in them for the whole Lamelo thing too. I never in a million years would have thought that they would do something like that.
imagine being a prestigious basketball school that has produced multiple nba stars and a few hall of famers and being too scared to play a 17 year old because he played in a low-level league in Europe LMAO..... couldn't be me.
They beat chino hills. These dudes actually gonna be legit super stars. Not just little brace face that can pass. The lakers dude not even top 3 on his team
This academy has produced more pros than any other school. Is that safe to say? Thanks for all the Tar Heels who came from this school. Stackhouse and McInnis were the 1st I can think of.
Tyren Sutton Hahaha. I totally agree with you. How you gonna be scared of a 17 year old. They got the No.1 rated PG in the country and scared to face Melo
I went to this place for a year back in the ‘70’s. It was a place for delinquents or those whose parents didn’t want them. Looks like not much has changed. That kid mumbling in the opening shot was barely able to speak understandably. Most of these ballers would be in prison if they could not dribble a ball for OHA. It was the same in 1978.
It’s sad that theses dudes could each make there hometown team better but they chose to play for the white juggernaut school. I bet if they had no transfers and only kids from oak hill they wouldn’t go anywhere
Because if you good enough you can get exposure from whatever little school you live by Labron James ain’t leave Akon to go to a big school right and now look at him. So you saying you can’t be found if you not in a big school is truly stupid
@Young Greatnesses all you did was reply to one thing a said.... Obviously if you are good enough you will get recognized no matter where you are. Not everyone is LeBron by the way. these schools play much better competition than the average school. These schools provide kids with a better education and structure that they might not get at home. You have no actually point valid point.
Melo, Melo, Melo! That's all I hear. I hope he makes it to the pros and faces Cole. People talking about him like he's the next Steph Curry. Anybody who can't go somewhere without stealing something and folks think he's a franchise player? A waste of talent? From what I've seen all he does is shoot every time down the court. Ballhog, ballhog, ballhog!
A Basketball players dream to go to a school like this. Because the competition can make a bum get better. But if you are a average player it can make you a D one player.
AlliDoisBall Foreal!! ...All this nonsense...This the most prestigious basketball school in history...They ain’t worried about one team on a schedule....
I want see the matchup but you gotta think about it, it’s bigger than basketball, but oak hill has better team y’all no cap but lamelo is special player
@Jack Tilghman did you know that before oak hill he lived in New York or went to school in New York I ain’t say he was born in New York I said he had the accent nigga
