click continue as free member, at the bottom right hand there should be a download file button (can't remember and I'm at work). I use that site to stream/download movies and that's how I normally do it

Wow. Great documentary.

Had no idea Coach Brown was such a great person off the court.

Also didn't realized I grew up blocks away from where he currently lives.

Same here. I never really followed lsu basketball until 03ish when I was old enough to follow college sports. I always knew about dale brown but never knew how awesome of a person he was and how well respected by his peers he was and still is.

Yeah, that was the point. I was f&cking with you because you were born ~1989/1990. I have leftovers in the freezer older than you.

Is this the one with Lester Earl saying he made everything up?

I give Dale a lot of credit for putting LSU basketball on the map, but the guy was an attention-seeker and an egomaniac. Also, he was great at taking mid-level talent and motivating them to play at a higher level, but he didn't do so well with elite players. He had Shaq, Chris Jackson, Stanley Roberts, and some other very good role players ON THE SAME TEAM and couldn't even win the conference.

Yea they kinda touched on that.

The 86-87 final four team he had when basically every player on the floor was second string, had a 6'6 guy playing center, and went in the tournament as an 11 seed. Tim Brando called it the best Cinderella story of all time. Granted he is a LSU homer and the documentary started in 2007.

Also talked about this

LSU Basketball wasn't even what I enjoyed about the documentary, it was talking about how caring of a person Dale was.

Like when the NCAA wouldn't let the players go to a cancer benefit for a teammate in another state because it was against NCAA rules, Dale pretty much said NCAA, called them and told them he paid for them to go to the benefit and he knows he broke the rules. I don't think the NCAA even reprimanded him, at least the documentary didn't touch on it if they did.
