When Kansas came into Alumni very highly ranked led by guard Jo Jo White and were upset by the Johnnies . Albie Schwartz put a blanket on Jo Jo . Who remembers the Johnnies starting five in that game?

I'll guess Sonny Dove and John Warren
 
I was there when Kansas came in with Walt Wesley and beat us and I was there when we beat U. Miami with Rick Barry.
 
The Kansas game that I attended was in the mid-sixties. It was a big crowd, but not a sellout. I had just started high school and  after that game I became a SJU fan.
Kansas had  Jo Jo White and Vernon Vanoy. Redmen had Swartz, Brian Hill, Sonny Dove, Rudy Bogad and John Warren, I recall, as the starters. We blew out Jayhawks.

Was there also, didn't Calzonetti get the start over Hill?

Can't remember for sure, but I do recall Hill hitting outside and Dove dominating Vanoy, who was huge, on the inside.

 
 
I remember the brothers ,ken was a guard and a good outside shooter. Bob his brother was 6-6 forward and a good player and had a nice shot
 
I was at that game (66-44 I believe). One of the most exciting games I have ever attended at Alumni Hall. Swartz, Warren, Bogad and Dove shocked Jo Jo White et al. I don’t recall Brian Hill. That game made me a forever St. John’s fan and season ticket holder for thirty years.
Tha other game I would rank as a great Alumni Hall win was the defeat of the Bernie-Ernie Tennessee team. The arena was electric!

Yeah, AH exploded when Grunfeld was called for a charge as he drove the baseline early in the game.  It set the tone for the game. 
 
 
I was there.  Incredible game and right before Christmas break, I recall.  Alumni Hall was crazy and Allie put on a show.  Just amazing to be there.
 
... and we now have an official alte kaker thread.

It's all relative, I qualify for membership according to lots of younger fans.

Jealous that you weren't there and missed out on those great games? /media/kunena/emoticons/cool.png/media/kunena/emoticons/tongue.png
