There has never been a point guard like Sherman Douglas ever since. That man is the GOAT.

@@MusicManSeanB I’m a die hard Hoya fan a lot of people might disagree but I believe SMITTY is the best point guard in gtown history slightly above iverson

@@jamesthomas6056 I like Smitty a lot, especially considering he wasn't even supposed to have gotten that last scholarship in the 1985-1986 recruiting class. From people I know inside the program, that scholarship was supposed to go to Cardozo High School's All-Met/All-American guard, Earl Moore. He ended up after playing the waiting game to attend George Mason. I think Michael Jackson should get consideration as best point guard in history as well. Besides, he did help win a National Title, while almost helping us get a second.

@@MusicManSeanB I understand the only reason I say SMITTY is I was born in 1980 so actually saw him play I only got chance to see Jackson on replays but from the footage of him I seen I can see your point also point out that John in my opinion never let the guards do they thing it was always built around the center iverson was the only guard that he just let him do him

Thanks for sharing. Syracuse were rockstars during this period. G-town were monsters. The commentary was legendary

This is before Sherman Douglas, blew up into 'The Tank' in the NBA. But a bunch of great players on the court, and Mutumbo was on the bench.

Thanks for this, particularly that it is full version. What a blast from the past. Had not seen this since I was 15 when game was live. Amazing to watch Syracuse push ball and attack the rim. So many great passes by the General, Sherm. Coleman was a beast with length and driving ability. in the end, Zo won the battle of freshman. He was outstanding on defense and a force around the rim. Billy Owens had a horrible game unfortunately and could not hit a thing. Outside shooting was not existent. Charles Smith with some clutch (tough) shots to keep Hoyas ahead towards end. Good game.

Can someone actually know what happened to Charles smith without looking it up because he doesn't have any updates when I look online other than 2009 or 2010 when he got in trouble. I can't imagine he is still in jail unless he pulled a victor page got out and went back in a year later.

The Capital Centre (then US Airways Group, Inc. Arena) in Landover, Maryland was near Federal Express Corporation Field. It had a funny looking roof. LOL. 😁😂🤪🤣🤭🙃🥴😳🙄🤦🤷👌 Also, it was just announced that Federal Express Corporation’s name on the walls of the stadium are coming off. They are breaking their naming rights agreement with the Washington Commanders. 👌

This was the year Michigan stole the title w that cheap foul vs Seton Hall. Cuse probably woulda taken it all if Coleman wasn't nursing a bad back in the tournament.
