MBBALL Obscure Griz BBall Player Thread

Dave died along with another former Griz BB player in a plane crash while shooting gophers from a low-flying plane near Big Sandy
The other player was Kirk Johnson. I believe he played baseball at UM too. Surprised you wouldn't remember his name, as you were at UM at the same time.
 
Tim Knight
I lived on the same floor in Jesse Hall. Nice guy. Some of us watched Super Bowl XIV (Steelers-Rams) in his room. I was, and still am, a Rams fan. That was a heartbreaker. Almost a huge upset until Bradshaw made magic in the 4th quarter. I’m not 100% on this but I think Craig Larsen was his roommate.
 
John Reckard.

One of my favorite players to watch in the late 80's. Had an understated but very solid UM career.
 
I just happened upon this but this was the 87-88 Mens Media Guide when trying to remember where Reckard was from.

Stew Morrill's expression on page 2 (team poster) leads to so many other potential questions to ask. Is he smiling? Did he see a ghost? Could have he possibly been holding in a fart? I dunno. But I love it.
