I can't get over how completely insane that Dunbar HS team was in Baltimore in the early 80s.
-Reggie Lewis: probably would have been a Top 50 player of all time had he not passed away.
-Muggsy Bogues: Top 25 in career NBA assists
-David Wingate: played 15 years in the NBA
-Reggie Williams: played 10 years in the NBA
-Harried: came off the bench for some elite SU teams

Michael Brown who was a McDonald's AA also played for SU for a couple of years.

Loved Herm. But man, you want to talk about some wild looking free throws, he was the OG. Kyle has a long way to go.

This is awesome news! Love the Helicopter! As a kid growing up watching Syracuse basketball, everyone knew about Herm’s insane leaping ability (William Kyle-esque!) and how his injury messed that up. But he worked his butt of all four years to be a key reserve.

I always wished that Herm would have coached SU’s big men.

Is

there a reason he (seemingly) was never considered as an assistant here.

Do you have a story to tell?

No. Great HS coach. SU lineage. Fertile recruiting are. Was interested if anyone knew a reason. It might be that he never wanted to leave
