Gondo, Reggie and Charles
I am so glad Gondo, Glen Gondrezick, is doing well and back doing the games on radio after his heart transplant. Many people were praying for him. It was a ...
Budget Suites and a bowl of rice
I’ve been asked about Melvin Ely and Rafer Alston, two of my biggest recruits at Fresno State, and I could not be happier for either one. Rafer is the point ...
Dinner, almost, with Bobby Knight
