BOL Round Table

Do you remember when we had Kenny walker and Erwin Dudley...two big men that could rebound,defend, and score on the same team.

We ran one play. Big guy sets up under goal, Shelton runs off one way or the other, catches ball in corner, drains 3 in State's face. Rinse, repeat.

Then that goofy white kid turd slammed one of our guys to the ground and got yelled at for the last 8 minutes of the game. Man.......that was fun.

I also remember Ron Steele doing this to Lee Humphrey

Speaking of how someone ripped up State, do you guys remember what Kennedy Winston always did to them at the Hump? Kennedy was a great player, but he was like a shark seeing blood when he saw State at the Hump. During his last season, Alabama had to win in StarkVegas to get into the NCAA tournament. For most of the second half, the only "play" Gottfried called was a series of isolations for Winston. He lit State up. He is still one of the best basketball players I have ever seen in person. He also had one of the nastiest recruitments I have ever witnessed as well. You are right, those were good times.

The stars aligned for that team. They went on like a 10 game winning streak just to make the tournament. Once they got into the NCAA tournament, the rest was history. They got absolutely perfect match ups all the way to the elite eight. We even got the perfect ripe to be beaten 2 seed Stanford. However, that dream came to a crashing halt when we ran into UCONN. Still a good run. Very proud of what that team accomplished.

That UConn team was one of the best teams of the last 20 years. They played 1 close game the entire tournament. Ben Gordon, Okafor, Villanueva, Hilton Armstrong, Josh Boone, Marcus Williams, Denham Brown....................man. What a roster.

Vermont - W by 17
Depaul - W by 17
Vandy - Win by 20
Bama - W by 16
Duke - W by 1
Georgia Tech - W by 9

That is incredible

That team was loaded. I think everybody knew that Alabama was going to get beat pretty bad. That team featured at least five pros. Also, Ben Gordon was unstoppable in college.
