Cazzie22 Posted September 1, 2020 Report Share Posted September 1, 2020 I always remember Lute Olson’s Iowa team that was a championship contender until Ronnie Lester went down with an injury. It was a fun team to watch. John Thompson brought toughness to basketball but he also had some highly skilled players while at Georgetown. Eddie Sutton nearly got Creighton to the Sweet 16 and to get Okie St. to the Final Four was a great achievement. And when he had the Triplets (Moncrief, Brewer and Delph) Arkansas was must see Basketball. Handy Johnson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Handy Johnson Posted September 2, 2020 Report Share Posted September 2, 2020 It’s easy to forget Olson went to FIVE Final Fours, cutting down the nets with Loren Woods & Arizona in ‘01.... Cazzie22 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
