He could. And was a great complement to the other high profile players. That was one of the most exciting college teams of all time.

The Best Era of College Hoops, There were some great programs in that stretch that could light the scoreboard up!

How was he making light of him dying?

The OP says his brother beat him on a jump ball, is that making fun of his dying?

Good grief.

He was a great player on a great team. He didn't really need to dunk on that team. Doesn't seem that long ago. 62 is too young. What caused his death? RIP Alvin

I was at the game at the Pit in Albuquerque in April of 1983 when they lost to N.C. State. I was absolutely shocked when the final buzzer went off.

A couple of years later the NCAA adopted the shot clock. I don't think anyone could have beaten the Cougars with today's rules.
