What do you miss?

About old school basketball? I miss the squeaky sneakers.

Pure hustle fight and toughness.

Watching sports center the morning after a big Cats win was magical.

 

[Orville Boggs]

I agree with ya on a lot man, but heck no to that. The worst smell in the world is cigarette smoke

Unless it's a $2 Wh*re after a night Tin Roof!

How far back do we have to go for it to be called old school?

Watching 4 year players grow and develop.

I wasn’t alive but cheerleaders with skirts to their ankles???

Multiple mid major conference schools being really good.
Not just tourney Cinderella's. But during regular season. With All Americans and high draft picks.

Unlv. Western. VCU. Uncc. Temple. St Josephs. Memphis State. DePaul. Tulane. Marquette.

Theoretically, Louisville even.

Having paper brackets that you could hold in your hands.

Skunk weed...

 

[UK90]

I miss the days when it wasn't all about either getting a three point shot or getting to the rim.

The art of of working for the right mid-range shot ...and developing signature mid-range moves ...is largely lost from today's game. And a lot of former mid-range masters like Goose Givens would be considered of little worth by today's analytics.

The Kentucky Indiana all star game mattering.

Kentucky Indiana mattering.

The Big Four

A good game on Super Bowl Sunday

Playing a good ooc team on the road.

Playing a good ooc team at home

Playing some other country's Olympic team

Basically when the schedule was interesting instead of only a means for Mitch to maximize every dollar.

US Olympic team made up of college players

The intros where the players alternated from each team and shook hands at mid court.
