Just in case no one got a chance to read this article.

December '82 was a great game. Xavier McDaniel had an alley-oop dunk like I had rarely seen up to that time. Hard core.. the backboard didn't stop shaking until WSU's next trip down the court.

That was a great game. The Shocks were ranked #4, UAB was ranked 8th and 9th in the 2 major polls. The roundhouse was electric. I was there, sitting in the 4th row behind the visitors bench. The crowd was great and the Shockers won pretty easily. In fact the game wasn't as close as the 75-60 final score might indicate.

Interesting article mentioned in this link about the delay in the UAB stadium project, the politics of their Board of Trustees and the way that UAB is treated by them.
