Dude.....
That was in 1986. This was the Rudy Macklin, Howard Carter, Ethan Martin, Willie Sims and Greg" Cookie Monster" Cooke and Leonard " Swat" Mitchell Tigers

They were probably the best team athletically that year, if Dwayne Scales had stayed, I think there would be a banner in the PMAC.

Yep, that team was in the top 5 the whole season and a #1 seed. It was when I very first started following college basketball - 80s college basketball, with the good players staying for 3 or even 4 years, was the shiznitz!
