- Anthony Stacy toying with opposing players then turning to the student section shaking his head no.
- Brandon Pardon no look passes.
- The floor being littered with trash after Dakich is ejected against Kent Read, Kent Write, Kent State.
- Erik Marschall having his jersey taken off and not having a foul called.

Faves:
Brandon Pardon (my wife's favorite, but I liked watching him, too.)
Len Matela (played with more heart than anyone and loved BG more than anyone)
John Reimold (could drain the trey)
Ron Lewis (could fly from the foul line for a dunk)
I like that steak comes from cows. That is why a cow will not think twice about eating you.

Glad someone else posted this. I thought I was the only one who remembered seeing this. Wish I had video.

It's probably my memory playing tricks, but I think Brandon Pardon had something like 13 assists in his debut as a Falcon. The archives only go back to 2001 so I can't find the actual game. He had a few double digit assist games in his career.

When we got beat by Illinois in the NCAA regional in 1963, he scored 25 against Tal Brody (defensive player of year in Big 10), on one leg as he had a pulled hamstring!
My dad who is REALLY old says Komives and Thurmond. He tells some great stories about those two.
Yes, seeing those guys was fantastic. The Loyola game was the 1st Falcon game I had ever seen and all i can say is it left an incredible impact on me. The pandemonium that night was similar to the night we took out MSU years later on the same floor. I was about 9 when we beat Loyola and i tell people I maybe the youngest person still living in BG to have seen that game.

Don't know if he's a "best player"...But Ayers has been invited to the Portsmouth Invitational (showcase for college bball players from pretty much all divisions )
It's not the fall that hurts...it's when you hit the ground.
