I still have this program in my office.
As a 9 year old, sat with my good friend Jay in the yellow section while my parents sat across the stadium also in the yellow section monitoring us with binoculars.

Fun story we wrote a few years ago - thought about it last night during the game.

Look how high Big E and Kareem Abdul Jabbar are off the floor. Incredible athletic skills! KAJ was 7’2" and the Big E was 6’9" or 6’10" and they both have some hop! Wow!

I love these posts. I wish I had met Rob. My friends still talk about us going to those games when we were teenagers. I sure wish someone would uncover all those BY and GVL shows from that time period.

Have a number of the old shows on VHS. I’ll see what can be done

Today, in 1968, in Elvin Hayes’ return to North Louisiana, he put up 50 points and 37 rebounds. The 37 boards are a school record that has never been threatened.

I attended The Valparaiso game in 1968 wherein Big E scored 62 points. And he did not play the entire game.
The massive scoring of our 1968 team occurred with no 3 point shots and no dunks allowed.
I remember listening to that game on the radio because in 1968 there weren’t any regular televised Coog games.
It was an amazing individual feat by the Big E. He still remains as the best overall player in Coog history.
