Before former Villanova assistant Fred Hill ran Rutgers' basketball program into the ground, the school produced a star known as Quincy Douby. Douby was the face of Rutgers for three years, and was the Big East's leading scorer for the 2005-06 season, during which the Scarlet Knights achieved a great moral victory by taking a highly ranked Villanova team to overtime. A 6'3" gurad, Douby weighed only 175 pounds, but despite looking like an awkward stick figure on the court, Douby was a pure scorer. Douby left Rutgers after his junior year, and was a first round selection by the Sacramento Kings in the 2006 NBA Draft. Douby played three seasons with the Kings, but never averaged more than 11.8 minutes per game. Last season, Douby played in Turkey and was the top scorer in the Turkish League; a league that will soon feature Allen Iverson. Douby is currently playing for the Xinjiang Flying Tigers of the China, helping to spread New Jersey's fine culture into new markets.
