I've never been the top dog. I've always been the underdog. And that's why I relate so much to Utah, because we're underdogs, we're overlooked, kind of thought of as an afterthought.
It's, you know, kind of nice to be under the radar.
I envy that man who passes through life safely, to the world and fame unknown.
The sad souls of those who lived without blame and without praise.
Everywhere I've gone, basketball-wise, I've been the underdog and underrated guy.
I didn't have outstanding numbers coming out of college and I'm not 6'6 with 230 lbs.
Sweet were the days when I was all unknown, But when my name was lifted up, the storm Brake on the mountain and I cared not for it. Right well know I that fame is half disfame.
I wasn't highly touted coming out of high school, so it wasn't like I was expecting to get a lot of minutes. For me, I didn't know how good a player I was, even though I think I did decent as a freshman.
I won the world title in K-1 as a nobody.
I'm not a media darling. I'm not on the cover of all these magazines. I just quietly do my thing.
I knew what type of player I was: a free agent, a small kid who came from a small school.
It's cool because I think 'Ex Machina' is a little bit under the radar, which is always when I do my best work - when I feel like no one's paying attention.
