Hi Ken...
Just a couple of words to add to my years at Kansas... and thanks for doing this... it's very impressive.
I remember my two seasons at Kansas as the best and worst time of my life all wrapped up in one. It was the best because of the all the terrific opportunities presented to represent University of Kansas basketball, and at the same time, it was frustrating because I didn't play nearly as much as I would have liked to, and I also played during two losing seasons in Lawrence. I will say I had terrific teammates who I enjoyed playing with. We had a really difficult schedule with games against Arizona, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan and North Carolina and other top programs during those two seasons. I will also say that it is my feeling that surrendering playing time for young and upcoming players turned into the experience factor that propelled the 85-86 Jayhawks to the Final Four. It was a privelage to be a native Kansan playing for Kansas.

Ken... thanks for the note. Tony Guy and Dave Magley were my captains during my junior season. Jeff Dishman and Mark Summers were captains for my senior season. Tony had some nagging shin splints, Dave had a great year and was drafted by Cleveland. Tyke Peacock could jump out of the gym. We would have made a great track team with Tyke, ME, Jeff Dishman recruited to run with the ball. Ted had initially told us he wanted to uptempo the game because thta wsa the trend. Oklahoma, which had just brought in Billy Tubbs, so Ted recruited a lot of speed. This was before the three point stripe and shot clock. But then, we made the mistake of beating Indiana at Madison Square Garden in a slow down game. (I think six guys on our squad played, the sixth just a few minutes)... and that was that. I ended up playing behind Kerry Boagni my senior year.
I always thought it was interesting that Coach Owens was our head coach with Bob Hill, and Jo Jo White as our lead assistants. We also had some guy named John Calipari as a grad assistant. Randolph Carroll was the other grad assistant. I was a grad assistant for Larry Brown in 84-85. R.C. Buford was a grad assistant that season.
