He was considered a huge recruiting win back in the day and had a good career here.
Where is Ron Mercer these days ?
- Thread starter Uncle Adolph

Looks like his son is a senior at a Chicago-area HS Riverside-Brookfield.

Who was the first caller into Pope's first radio show ? Ron Mercer, or his son ?
That was a shocker to me. I thought he’d be an NBA all star. He had a few solid years then just faded away. Hopefully he stayed away enough to retire on.
Mercer was a lot of fun to watch
Especially with Derek Anderson

Seems like injuries did him in.
But that sexual assault allegation didn’t help either.
He played 8 or 9 years and had a consistent career avg in double figures. Just wasn't a superstar, but a journeyman
He carried that 97 team all the way to the Championship game! Mercer was the shit!
Pacers killed his career.
Mercer was averaging 17-18 in the years leading up to the Pacers and then it dropped to 5 and 7 and then out of the league by 2005 due to injuries.

Ron Mercer was such a stud at UK. In the mold of Grant Hill. Him and Waltah were so much fun to watch, and DA.
