I must say that was damn fun - Herren was a playa

[RGV Pony]

Alexander was a scoring machine

[GiddyUp]

man if he was clean the whole time - would have been unreal

[GiddyUp]

shots of playing us in Moody - destroying us by himself

Not that Dement's teams guarded anyone, but boy did Herren get every look he wanted.

Seriously, Big East is gonna have to be a lot of fun to outmatch the WAC16

WAC16 wouldve/couldve worked...was just ahead of its time

Get rid of the garbage - San Jose, La Tech, Hawaii and keep UNLV, Nevada, etc - could have worked

[GiddyUp]

had no idea what happened to him - what a f'd up life
good to see him turn it around.

great documentary. The eerie thing is all the footage they had of him while it was all happening. I remember that night at Moody, he was phenomenal. Tark said that game was Herren's best game ever, driven by SMU fans that heckled him more ruthlessly than anywhere else. Addiction=Hell.

Just watched this last night. Sad story with what seems to be a good ending. One of the better ESPN films, don't know if we are still calling them 30 for 30. He was a BAWB.

Amazing. Bobby Knight and Larry Eustachy said the same thing about SMU fans. Who knew?

Very good story. Always hate it when a opponent claims to have their "best game" against SMU.
