They called him Soarin’ Warren

The astronomical heights which the Shocker All-America candidate reaches would suggest such a thing. The 6-foot-2 Warren, however, attributes much of his leaping ability to his prep days at Kansas City’s Central High School.

Loved reading the article on Terry Benton. What a dominating rebounder he was. In grade school, I was friends with his younger brother Kerry. We used to go to the games and count his rebounds. Towards the end of the game, when everyone else was sucking wind, Terry just kept workin it, and it would seem like he'd end up with 20+ rebounds.Comment

Not at all unlikely. Terry had 5 games of between 23-29 rebounds and in 70-71 had a rebound average per game of 16.8.Originally posted by ciaomichael View PostComment

That's interesting. I was in his Psychology class at East. It's been a while but I think I said right behind him.Originally posted by pogo View Post

Interesting article today about MTXE's arrival. Smithson was hired at. $40k, double the amount that IlSU was paying him. Hartman was making slightly over $41k and Ted Owen was making $31k. $40k in 1978 is worth about $143k today.
Also didn't realize that UofL asst Olsen had accepted and then turned the job down.Comment

Ahhhh yes, Dr. Pronko.....reactional biography.......TA's pretty much ran his classes by the time I had him for my prof, but he was still pretty sharp.Comment

I too am interested in that story. I happened to be stationed on the east coast when all of this happened and didn't know anything about it until I read this article.Originally posted by Shocker-maniac View PostComment
