Junior year for me...

Remember going to the Dome wanting to kick the snot out of Julius Hodge. Instead, I walked back to my house on the Westcott-side of Clarendon, over the hill, and began chugging shots after that performance. Yuck.

Then, later that year, went to the Tennessee game in Knoxville. Have family near there. We were expected to beat them pretty good with a Top 10 team. Instead, I left with Rocky Top ringing in my ears.

Did go to one of the NIT games at the Dome that year. What a weird situation. There might have been 5,000 people in the stands. Remember that the freshmen were getting a lot of playing time.

In looking at that roster... James Thues was getting big-time minutes. Where did that kid end up? Wasn't good enough but he showed some flashes and had a couple good games.

After three seasons trending downward (Freshman Year -- Sweet 16 & hopes of a national title wiped out by Mo Pete; Sophomore Year - Terrible loss in NCAA's to much better Kansas team), nobody could have expected what was to come.

Thank you Carmelo, Gerry, et al.
