...film tells the story of budding young basketball star Kyle Watson (Duane Martin) who is supposedly torn between the influence of the fast-living Birdie (Tupac Shakur) and the more responsible Tommy Shepard (Leon Robinson). But the movie isn't very good at presenting a convincing moral dilemma...
Shakur puts forth a lackluster version of the typical "Superfly" character. His Birdie is only slightly menacing and only slightly charismatic. Kyle becomes enamored of Birdie when they meet in a nightclub and Birdie hooks Kyle up with an attractive yet apparently mute woman in a mini-skirt...
...Shepard character isn't particularly compelling either. He was a big high school basketball star back in the seventies, but his career was cut short when he had a breakdown after the accidental death of his best friend, "Nutso." He now works as a security guard at Kyle's high school and broods in the hallways. With such a history, you'd think he would have some words of wisdom for the young Kyle, but he doesn't. He just broods in the hallways...
...singer is a nice person named Kyle. Kyle is from New York. At the beginning of the year he had long hair and a beard, but he had to rid himself of both in order to appear in court. Sometimes during HSS shows Kyle stands inside of a cage that he made himself and keeps in his room in Thayer. Kyle amuses himself by thinking of Tom Swifties that have internal logic but are hard for the layperson to understand...
This past year was a totally different story, Kyle Snowden will probably win the Ivy League Rookie of the Year award. Darren Rankin and Mike Gilmore also blossomed into good players...
