Eric Poole had some big moments, including the best dunk I've ever seen in my 48 years attending games at the RC.
He had 347 career points, but was a mainstay inside.Nobody mentioned George Atwell?
That's a good question. Hummel was at Purdue 6 years and they made the tourney all 6 years and I'm really not sure if anybody else can say that.
Please explain the 1935 NCAA championship in basketball.Think Pat Sullivan was at UNC for 7 (?). I suspect they were all NCAA tournament years too as it was pre Doh!
EDIT: Just felt like 7. Possibly only five years.
20-0 is better than 19-1Please explain the 1935 NCAA championship in basketball.
Great suggestion. We learn so much about our fair school.realize that a lot of folks on here are young but nobody has mentioned WILTON FORD. he is a UR hall of famer, averaged over 20 points per game one season and scored over 40 points in one game. not sure we had another center with that amount of offense.
Spinner I thought about Ford but thought I was creating a time warp by going back to Bob McCurdy in the mid 70s.realize that a lot of folks on here are young but nobody has mentioned WILTON FORD. he is a UR hall of famer, averaged over 20 points per game one season and scored over 40 points in one game. not sure we had another center with that amount of offense.
Great catch. My dad knew him back in the day. Theryl Willis led the Spiders in a losing effort against WVU and Jerry West in the 1950s.Theryl Willis?
What a great name for a center "Buster Batts".for us old timers, I don't recall the late Buster Batts being mentioned from the 60s...
even further back into the late 50s and early 60s was Red Booker a center on that team with Higgins, Green, Telepo and Tenwick?
Go Spiders!
