Always looked forward to their basketball and football edition. Plus the music issue as well.

Not that fella third from left. I get the sense he hasn't paid his dues.

I think #23 on Providence is Steve Wright, a forward who played high school ball locally in Syracuse - maybe Fowler, but went to Providence. DC makes him look small and he wasn’t.

Thank you, just looked it up #23 was PC co-captain “Pop” Lewis who sadly passed away in 2018

I believe Steve Wright is the guy blocking out Rony. The photo also includes Rick Pitino and behind him, in the red tie, Jeff Van Gundy, who was an assistant on that team. And Billy Donovan, who would lead Florida to two NCs and still coaches in the NBA, is in the foreground.

Quite a bit of basketball history in this one picture.

Certainly not compared to, say, Mike Tirico

Yes I know this is a year old, but I’m just seeing it today.

That's pretty crazy. A lot of wins on the floor that night.

That’s from the final four in 87. 84-89, the big east dominated hoops then like the SEC does in football now.

This was an amazing play by (a VERY plugged IN!!) Roberson.

Off a really bad pass by Silent G -
it was 2' wide of the backboard, and Robey (somehow) snared it and THREW IT DOWN.

Is this from that game vs Pitt in 2008 where he helped blow the lead?

Could be, not sure.
