Highlights from the 1973 Final Four. The Friars jumped out to a big lead, but an injury to star big man Marvin Barnes proved too much to overcome for Providence.

As an 11 yr old die-hard PC fan back in ‘73, I was devastated. Watching this video almost 5 decades later still brings back painful memories. That said, Watching video highlights of Ernie D’s masterful performance against the Soviets later that summer is an effective antidote!

Ernie was/is a legend here in Rhode Island. It's said he'd dribble a ball on his walk back and forth to school every day. I played against him twice during his early pro days in off season pick-up games. He showed up in his Braves warm up suit. Only a few moments into the game you sensed quickly he was just different. His awareness and vision on court was unlike anything I ever experienced.

Heartbreaking loss to watch. I was a young PC fan at that time. Ernie and Marvin were having their way.....on their way to a rematch with UCLA when disaster struck. Truly unfortunate as everyone wanted to see Marvin match up again with Walton. Not saying PC would have won but I think Marvin would have defended Walton better than to allow 44 points like the """"Strong front line of three 6'8" stars"""""" Memphis supposedly had. Yeah, they went back to TN before that game! At least Marvin and Ernie would have given them a better run in the rematch.

What was the score of the regular season game between the Bruins and Providence ? I sort of remember the score being very close until the last 5 minutes - then UCLA ( with the refs help ) ran off to a big 15+ point win. Am I correct on that ? I think the Friars were the better team and could have won it all
