I don't recall him, but always sad to lose a Miner. On a positive note...news that fell under the radar with all the recruiting excitement, the announcement of a school named for Don Haskins. Mary Haskins looks great, bless her heart.

I do remember watching him play at UTEP. My dad would sneak me into the games from time to time. I remember that he was a sharp shooter making outside shots (similar to Pony Goodwin). I always thought it weird that he only played one year. He had a decent ppg as a Sophomore. May he rest in peace.
