I miss Pearl. So blessed to have seen and met him here at SU. What a legacy he left!

nYC pt guards was an interesting take on the history of the city players.

Pearl's last year at SU was my freshman year, I will treasure watching him in person that season until the day I die

Man - Rod Strickland. That dude used to stuff the stat sheets when I had to calculate all my fantasy stats using the Tuesday edition of the USA Today.

Me, too. Didn’t know then how spoiled I was. That was a blessing—being there.

I always say that his range was limited, couldn't dunk and his assist to turnover ratio wasn't great. The most exciting college player I've ever seen.

No doubt that Pearl cemented a lot of folks to become huge Syracuse Basketball fans. That said, I'm reading that article and I thought the author was going to leave out Tiny Archibald. Would have been a huge miss. One of my all-time favorites, that despite all his accolades, doesn't always get the recognition he deserves.

Reading that gave me chills.

Nice tribute from Rod to Dwayne.
