"Ranked 23rd among high school students in the United States, he has the reputation of having the fastest first step in California."

"In the just-concluded NSAA national finals, he led Canyon High School to a stunning comeback of 33 seconds and 11 points to win the championship."

"Zhang Jun, news about you has spread all over the United States this morning, and even ESPN reporters have made special reports on your game."

Zhang Jun skillfully put the fried hand-grabbed pancake into a greaseproof paper bag, and Westbrook took it and handed it to a black guy, while looking at the visitor with great curiosity.

"So, what do you want to say?" Zhang Jun said.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "I forgot to introduce myself. I am Bob, the head coach of the basketball team of USC. Now I sincerely invite you to join us."

"USC already has a prodigy, Nick Young, who is a five-star college student. The latest draft simulation ranks him 16th in the first round."

"If we can get you to join us and make up for the offensive gap of Nick Young's team after being double-teamed, we will definitely become a top team at the level of the NCAA Sweet 16."

It turned out that the college basketball team was recruiting.

Zhang Jun had expected this. After all, the NSAA national finals had already ended. Those college teams were like cats that smelled blood, eager to invite players with both strength and talent to join.

Nick Young's scoring ability is indeed good. He was praised by countless Chinese fans in his previous life.

He is strong, but I will hire Nick Young.

If I can form an outside partner with Nick Young, it might be a good choice.

"Just, to assist Nick Young?" Zhang Jun couldn't help but whispered.

Bob smiled. He had seen this scene many times.

Geniuses have their own arrogance. Those high school students who are a little famous in the United States have always been like this, and they don't know how high the sky is.

"Nick Young has played in the NCAA for two years, and both his experience and ability have been proven."

"This is what you don't have."

"If nothing unexpected happens, Nick Young will participate in the NBA draft next year. If USC can successfully enter the Sweet 16 and gain a lot of attention, there will be almost no problem for him to become a first-round pick."

"When Nick Young leaves, USC will be your team."

Bob thought this was a very good evaluation and treatment, and not every high school graduate can get the promise of his team's core and leader.

Of course, Zhang Jun is indeed worthy of such treatment, because his breakthrough ability is really amazing.

"What about the scholarship?"

Zhang Jun asked the question he cares about most.

About scholarships, Zhang Jun and his elder sister Xia He talked all night last night.

The first is a full scholarship (Fellowship), which is also called a full scholarship by students, and the amount is about 50,000 to 80,000 US dollars.

The full scholarship will not only waive all tuition, book fees, room and board fees for students studying at the school, but also provide an adult standard daily living expenses, from entering the school to graduation.

Many students can even save enough money to buy a car after receiving a full scholarship for the entire four years of college.

That is to say, once you get a full scholarship, the school will cover almost all the expenses for the next four years of college life, so you can go to school with peace of mind.

The second type is a half scholarship (TUTION WAIVER). Although it is called a half scholarship, it is actually an award that reduces tuition fees, with a reduction rate ranging from 50%-100%.

These two scholarships are the highest in terms of amount, while the remaining RA, TA, research assistant awards and teaching assistant awards are all service awards, which not only have to pay taxes but also generally do not exceed 10,000 US dollars.

Take the University of Southern California as an example. Their tuition fees alone are between 30,000 and 60,000 US dollars each year, so a scholarship of 10,000 US dollars can really only provide very little help.

Bob looked at Zhang Jun with some embarrassment and said, "Each university only has 5 full scholarships and 10 half scholarships each year."

"But there are 24 competitions in the NCAA, and USC has 10 of them, and the men's basketball team has occupied a full scholarship for two consecutive years."

"So this may be difficult, but I can guarantee you a half scholarship."

Zhang Jun frowned.

He knew that even if there was no scholarship, Yin Lishabei would sell everything he had to support him to go to college.

This is not easy on Compton Street, and Yin Lishabei will work harder for this reason.

Although most of his feelings for Yin Lishabei come from memories, Zhang Jun really likes this black-faced but kind-hearted person.

So, if it is just a half scholarship, Zhang Jun finds it difficult to accept.

"I am willing to provide you with a full scholarship!"

Alford took a deep breath and thought to himself that it was a good thing that he arrived in time, otherwise Zhang Jun might really be snatched away by Bob.

Seeing the arrival of old acquaintances and old rivals, Bob couldn't help but snort.

USC is located on the edge of downtown Los Angeles, while UCLA is located on the edge of the wealthy area of ​​Los Angeles.

The basketball teams of both universities are in Los Angeles and belong to the Pac-12 Conference, making them the most direct competitors.

The Pac-12 Conference is also one of the six most competitive and top conferences among the 32 conferences in the United States.

"Alford, what do you mean?" Bob said in a bad tone.

Alford crossed his arms and said calmly: "I just want to tell Zhang Jun some facts."

Zhang Jun looked at Alford and frowned and said, "What fact?"

Alford said: "You are ranked 23rd among high school students in the United States and have the reputation of having the fastest first step in California."

"Everyone knows this."

"But I watched your game at the NSAA National Finals carefully, and your breakthrough speed at the last moment was faster than ever before!"

"If it weren't for the fact that the NSAA has ended, I believe your ranking among high school students in the United States will continue to rise significantly."

"Honestly, I think you have the ability to be among the top ten high school students in the country."

"So, I hope you can join UCLA and lead us to win the NCAA championship."

Zhang Jun took a deep breath and was slightly shocked.

It wasn't because Alford keenly discovered his faster breakthrough speed at the last moment, but because that sentence led us to the NCAA championship.

"Haha, I laughed so hard."

Bob sarcastically said: "If I heard correctly, you just said something about winning the NCAA championship?"

"Yes, UCLA did reach the NCAA finals again this year, but you were beaten by 16 points by the unknown University of Florida, which is not even a strong team."

"What's more important is that UCLA's core player Jordan Farmar has decided to participate in the draft this year, as have core center Ryan Hollins and starting shooting guard Kedric Boetzman."

"You lost three core players at the same time in one summer, and your competitiveness has dropped significantly."

"In the latest strength prediction, UCLA can't even make it to March Madness. Why are you talking so brazenly about the championship here?"

Alford did not have a heated argument with Bob about this matter. In his opinion, Bob was simply dispensable at this time.

Alford still looked at Zhang Jun and said sincerely: "UCLA joined the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) in 1920, and so far we have won a total of 111 championships."

"This record is No. 1 in the United States and the university with the most championships in the UCAA."

"The men's basketball team has won a total of 11 NCAA championships, which is also the most among all universities in the United States."

"Bob is right, we lost too many core players this year, Jordan Farmar, Ryan Hollins, Kedrick Bozeman..."

"Our strength has indeed suffered a significant decline."

"But no matter what happens, I want to tell you that the UCLA Bruins will always have only one goal, and that is the NCAA championship."
