Message: [QUOTE="Cowtown, post: 1742822, member: 2350"] In 1965 we went to watch a wrestling dual meet when Cornell hosted Oklahoma St. Someone told us there was a scrimmage going on between Cornell's basketball team and Syracuse, so we snuck over to watch some of it. Yes, Dave Bing was there, so that was my first SU hoops experience. We played against Mike Lee in HS, so when he went to SU I became a fan of his, and later of his little brother Jim. I moved away from CNY and didn't get to see much of the basketball team until Pearl and SU helped usher in the golden era of the Big East in the early-mid 80's. Happily for me, his time with the Orangemen helped re-establish the connection between me and SU. [/QUOTE]
