SIU grad in '91.

I saw a big win to end a poor season, but didn’t know the story. Good stuff.

Thanks.

They used to have some good basketball teams….they had a guy named Ashraf Amaya? I feel like they may have made the NCAA’s?

Not sure.

Yes. He played in the NBA for a bit.

Yea. He was there when I was there.

Right when I was leaving, Chris Carr came in and he had a decent career (Timberwolves???)

Made the tournament a bunch of times in that era, two Sweet Sixteens in a row including knocking off a Bobby Knight coached Texas Tech team in the tourney.

Football at that time was the absolute pits. It appears we’re heading that way with both sports these days.
