To all – Do any of you have a copy of the BG vs. Ohio basketball game from Anderson Arena from back on January 22, 1994? I'm pretty sure the game was televised on ESPN2. If it wasn't ESPN2, then it was ESPN, but I'm pretty sure it was the deuce. BG won 76-72 in a game that featured BG's Antonio Daniels and Ohio's Gary Trent. It's also the game Daniels threw down and awesome dunk over Trent! I will pay for a copy of the tape made to be made on a tape or dvd, the shipping and handling, and I'll even throw in a little something extra for the trouble for helping me out. If anyone can help me out, I would GREATLY appreciate it!!!

PLEASE HELP – I'm looking for the BG vs. Ohio Game!!!!!!

Dayons_Den,
That would be awesome if you could check for me! Please let me know what you find out.
As for Dayon Ninkovic, my favorite "Dayon game" was his scoring outburst against the Top-25 Eastern Michigan in Antonio Daniel's first game back after his brother Chris' death. Dayon was hitting everything thaat night, I think he scored like 31 or something, and BG knocked off EMU with a last second shot by AD. It was awesome. I'll never forget how that EMU defender fell as AD scored the game winning shot on that drive to the basket. I remember AD later saying that Chris tripped the defender because he was supposed to have been at that game to watch him play. What a special win. We all rushed the court and the next day on the front page the paper, there was a picture of AD being swarmed by the students, and pictured right beside him was me with my hand on his shoulder and the other aimed to the sky with my finger pointing #1. What a memorable game!
As for Dayon, he was a good kid off the court. I was a student assistant with the team one year and he was always one of my favorite guys to hang out with. He was real personable and friendly. I always hoped he would have played more like he did against EMU that night throughout his career, but he did have some nice games. Ohhhh, the trips down memory lane.......

Funny how we file things in our memory... I remember that AD-EMU game as "the game I got asked to leave (kicked out) by the official" Since then, I was 16 and a junior in high school, I rarely yell directly at a referee. . .
Game was great, I of course, snuck back in and watched from the upper deck embarrassed and scared what my parents would say. . .That defender that tripped, wasn't it the Australian guy, Penini or something? big rugby player looking dude.

I just remember seeing the replay of that drive, and he simply falls down on the play as Daniels makes his drive. It was if he was tripped, but he wasn't. Weird.....but a great game!
