I played against Clark a couple years ago when he was at Irvine Valley
Community College.  He was probably the best player we played against and
certainly the most intimidating.  I have not seen him play since then
but I will say that he looked like he was going to be a big time Division
I player and a possible NBA prospect.  The one thing I remember most about
him was his shot blocking ability and he also had a couple of dunks
against us.  I really don't remember too much else about him.
