Lots of old games on today. Been watching St Johns kick the crap out of Georgetown. I remember the old SI articles. Good Stuff.

Later is 89 Ark v. UNLV. Also some 90 and 93 games on today.

The old SI articles are almost as good as the SI cover of Felipe Lopez flying through the air to realize his destiny as the savior of St. John's hoops. Too bad that didn't pan out.

Was that the sweater game?

No, I seem to recall Georgetown running past St. John's at the Garden where Thompson took off his jacket to show off the exact same lucky sweater that Carnesecca was wearing that season.
I kind of miss those old-school days of the Big East. It seems unfathomable now that teams like DePaul, Louisville and Marquette are in this conference. It was better when it was the core group of St. John's, Georgetown, Syracuse, Villanova and Pitt.

Providence and Seton Hall used to turn out some good squads back in those days as well.

I kind of like the old Big 8 also when it comes to basketball. It's been 10 years or so and I still think of Texass and those other turd kicking schools as SWC.
