Subject: Schedule Author: Nubball86 [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: Sunday, August 13, 05:23:02pm Author Host/IP: mobile-107-77-216-236.mobile.att.net/107.77.216.236 Best schedule in decades, even Buff St is cool. UB, Bonnie’s, Bucknell, ND, Cuse!! Just for reference in 1982-83 we drew 2700 a game at the “new” Gallagher center and we hosted, Bonnie’s, Buff St, Fairfield (MAAC), Cuse, SJU and Ohio. Also played Ayla a Cmas tourney with Utah, Barkley and Call st Fullerton. 13-14 NBA players on those rosters. (Maybe more). [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

(I will not debate this DB) Just to clarify. CAL St Fullerton with Leon Wood Auburn with Charles Barkley Utah Buff State is a great exhibition game, d3 games do not count, since it is a close regional team! [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

I will even buy two season tix, and donate them back, since I probably will not make a game and if I did would not need to pay. I looked again at our 1982-83 schedule and it was awesome Bonnies (2) H/A Buff State Fairfield West Mich St Johns Ohio Cute Lasalle Utah (tom Chambers) Cal State Full (Leon Wood) did not play Auburn, Chuck Barkely in tourney, but could have) Cornell Bucknell Penn State Drexel Cleveland state ECAC North (Pitino at BU, Calhoun at NE, Rick Carlisle @ Maine) Probably best schedule in last 40 years. Jacko played some decent one. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

Pearl Washington was a freshman, Syracuse also had Wendell Alexis and Raf Addison. I recall the game being played on a Saturday afternoon after finals were finishing up the day before. It was pretty cool watching NU play Cuse in a real home game. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

The school has to have some of these games on film somewhere right? Probably not knowing NU...But if they did, a nice little project would be putting some of them on youtube. There is a guy on Twitter who puts old Bills games on Youtube (BillsVHS) and it is super cool to watch. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

Niagara lost that game. There are no Calvin Murphy games, as Niagara and the local/regional and national networks destroyed any tapes they had of him long ago. Even the ECAC games of the week cannot be found. Luckily, I have many, including Niagara's last 2 NCAA games vs. Florida A&M, Kansas and Oklahoma. I even have the both NCAA Selection Shows; and ESPN's Top 20 College BB players of all-time, which at that time included Calvin Murphy. Bob Koshinski is the only one who was able to find the limited tapes on Murph, and it's posted online. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

Pete and I went back towhee he was at NCCC. So when I got to NU we talked about numerous things. I had Skip Speaks among other players in my classes. I reminded Pete of a game where I played against his NCCC Faculty Team. I was the 6-7 point guard on the other team featuring Forrest Richardson. Our frontline was 6-7, 6-6 and 6-4. Anyway we mopped the floor with them. I think we won by about 15 points or so. I only had 2 points in that game,a I had a ton of assists though and a few boards.jumper from the top of the key that hit the backboard and dropped in. Our shooting guard was also 6-4. We towered over the Faculty Team. IT was the first loss that the Faculty had ever had against any team, visiting or at home. Pete was a good ball player for them. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

My wife and I were returning to WNY from my interview with the NYPD (on Lafeyette Street) in Manhattan. Who do we bump into at Kennedy Airport ????? Marshall Wingate ! Anyway, I introduced myself and my wife, and we talked Niagara basketball for about 10 minutes or so. He was a great guy and super friendly. If we both had the time, we could have talked for hours; unfortunately, we had to catch a plane back to Buffalo, and he had just gotten in to NYC. By the way, I got the job and moved to Brooklyn, shortly thereafter. I had my choice of either Staten Island or the Bronx. I chose the Bronx. Staten Island would have been to quiet for me. It was known amongst the cops there as "the country club." Ah, those were the days. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
