Keeping Up With Old Friends Thread

Brownlee going off right now for Philippines. 26 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists through 3 quarters!
 
And while I was in Chapel Hill I took a visit to the Carolina Basketball Museum…while you won’t find a pix of me on our campus, I’m at least in theirs 🤗 I tried to visit with Coach Davis but he was at practice! And 3 players in the front row all became pretty good coaches!

Not only did former SJU trainer Ron Linfonte work with the national team, but former SJU head coach Pete Gillen did too.
 
It’s almost like a right of passage into a special redfan club to fall victim to mainman sarcasm.

Welcome to the club
Pete Gillen coached against my high school team, when he was the coach at Brooklyn Prep (which closed its doors for good right after Nazareth beat them.)

His columns in the Post were funny during the BET and Big Dance; his tv commentary too. A poor man's Al McGuire.

He never had a losing record when he coached at SJU.
