Matt Nover Regrets Partaking in "Blue Chips" Film
Barcelona, Spain - Remember the film "Blue Chips"? Nick Nolte is the struggling once-famous basketball coach now on the fringe of retirement so he illegally recruits 3 big-shots played by Shaq, Penny Hardaway... and Matt Nover (formerly of the Indiana Hoosiers). Well Matt Nover wishes he didn't.
"I'll never live that down," says Nover, now sporting long, dingy hair trapsed over the shoulders of his current team's uniform in the Spain Basketball League. "They went on to such bigger, better things. . . . I blame Nick Nolte."
Nover now spends his evenings at casual Barcelona bars answering his "fans'" questions about "Shaq-daddy" and "The Penny" while signing autographs on "Blue Chips" posters that feature Nolte & Shaq, but no Nover.
"Spain's been pretty alright, I guess," said a slumped over Nover before having a stack of towels thrown on him by passing teammates. Before he could answer any more questions, he mumbled an excuse about how "the guys like them pressed with a little starch" and how he'd better get going.
