You\u2019ll have a hard time finding a walk-on college athlete more famous than Brandon Dwyer.<\/p>\n
After years of growing his online presence with series like his \u201cRoad to 1 Point,\u201d it appeared the Florida Gulf Coast senior guard had officially run out of road to score a collegiate bucket when his team was eliminated by Queens College in the Atlantic Sun Tournament on Monday night.<\/p>\n
The social media superstar, however, told the Post he plans on playing another year at FGCU after three scoreless college basketball seasons.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have another year of eligibility, so I\u2019ll be taking that,\u201d Dwyer said. \u201cI\u2019m definitely staying at FGCU and running it back and having 30 more possible games to get that point.\u201d<\/p>\n
Despite being a two-time state champion and having plenty of Division II and Division III suitors out of Sanford School in Delaware, Dwyer elected to fulfill his Division I dreams and take a preferred walk-on spot at La Salle.<\/p>\n
After just a year there and appearing in one game, Dwyer followed his coach Pat Chambers to FGCU, joining the team as a walk-on once again.<\/p>\n
He initially posted the videos to document the life of a college basketball player, but those \u2014 according to Dwyer \u2014 \u201csucked.\u201d <\/p>\n
He eventually found a groove with more relatable content and his TikTok page blew up \u2014 partly due to another user reposting Dwyer\u2019s video with an added screenshot of Dwyer\u2019s non-existent college stats.<\/p>\n
\u201cHow do I respond to this?\u201d Dwyer wondered at the time.<\/p>\n

Some friends suggested retaliation, but Dwyer decided to lean into it and start \u201cpoking fun of\u201d himself about \u201cbeing a benchwarmer.\u201d<\/p>\n
That\u2019s where the viral series began as Dwyer continued his quest to finally score a point.<\/p>\n
From home games, to road games, to a tournament in the Virgin Islands, Dwyer said he was recognized by fans and hecklers alike.<\/p>\n
\u201cI didn\u2019t get a single minute in that tournament,\u201d Dwyer said of the Paradise Jam event FGCU was in last season.<\/p>\n
Yet fans flocked for photos postgame.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s when [my team] kind of realized, like, \u2018OK, this is crazy,\u2019\u201d Dwyer said.<\/p>\n
Since beginning the documentation of his journey, Dwyer has amassed more than 1 million followers on TikTok and an additional near-500,000 on Instagram.<\/p>\n
He\u2019s struck brand deals with companies like Meta, Dick\u2019s Sporting Goods, Tinder, Dr. Pepper and many more.<\/p>\n
\u201cAll these crazy brands who typically want me to talk about how I don\u2019t play,\u201d Dwyer said. \u201cI think it\u2019s hilarious.\u201d<\/p>\n
Even still \u2014 he has not recorded a single point across four years.<\/p>\n
In eight career appearances, Dwyer played nine minutes and went 0-for-3 from the field. Two of those shot attempts came at FGCU since he began the \u201cRoad to 1 Point\u201d TikToks.<\/p>\n
He\u2019s missed both shots this season across six games.<\/p>\n
In the times that Dwyer did check into games during blowouts, there were mixed reactions from opposing teams as Dwyer hunted for a bucket.<\/p>\n
In a 26-point win against Stetson, Dwyer says the opposing coaches screamed, \u201cDon\u2019t let him touch the ball!\u201d as Dwyer checked in.<\/p>\n
\u201cBro, I hope you score \u2014 but it\u2019s not gonna be on me,\u201d one player said to Dwyer.<\/p>\n
\u201cOn the flip side, I\u2019ll get people like, \u2018If they set a down screen for you I\u2019ll go under and you\u2019ll get your shot,\u2019\u201d Dwyer said.<\/p>\n
The dream will go on beyond this season and Dwyer also mentioned that there\u2019s a good chance FGCU will be in this year\u2019s College Basketball Invitational (CBI) tournament, giving another chance, or a few, at cracking the scoresheet.<\/p>\n
\u201cSomehow people are invested in me to score a single basket,\u201d Dwyer said. \u201cI gotta give myself another shot.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
