[QUOTE="altgeld88, post: 2022858, member: 2886"] That game was the second time he stuck a fork in us, denying us an outright title. I admired that guy. Arrived at Purdue as a walk-on. Got to BT POY by sheer hard work and determination. Always thought it odd that people mocked him for lifting heavy. Every player should be that strong. BTW, I was shocked to learn, upon refreshing my memory about him a moment ago, that he passed away three weeks ago at 63. RIP.
