Re: Iup basketball

Probably need Ayyub Ali on there somewhere. Eddie Peterson was good but he was such an absolute beep for what he did that he does not deserve nor warrant the mention.

Mike Mangel or Eric Castorina??? Eric was the biggest hustle guy ever.

Shawn Dyer not getting any love. One-year guys are tough, though, on such lists. That said, he was awfully good.

Re: Iup basketball

Just curious - Does anyone know any details about Amir Hinton, who transferred from Loch Haven? Where is he going?

Re: Iup basketball

Since the old stuff came up ... was curious.

Dennis Mims' lone season:

16.6 points per game
11.3 rebounds per game
59.2 FG%
90 blocked shots

For those who remember, recall he was routinely double- and even triple-teamed on most nights.


The other famous one-year import, Rodney Horton:

22.8 points per game
8 rebounds per game

Re: Iup basketball

Yes, I do remember him being smothered and he still dominated offensively! Defensively, good luck getting to the rim because he blocked everything!

His former teammate at Lock Haven Tarojae Brake transferred to Kutztown. No word on Hinton.

Mims was a BAD man! I guess both literally and figuratively. Nastiest IUP post player ever with the mighty Webb right there.

How tall was Mims? I can't even recall exactly. Wasn't he like 6-10 or so?

Re: Iup basketball

Aaron Faulkner was another good one kind of lost to history.

How about crazy Fannar ? His 'departure' certainly soured his role in program history. He was a scrappy one, though, during his time here.

Re: Iup basketball

The 2000 team, while not remembered as one of the greats, had one of the great runs in program history -- ending in the Elite 8.

Recall that group, led by PSAC Player of the Year Mike Beckles, essentially reached the Elite 8 with a 6-man rotation. Seven on some nights.

Six-man rotation. I hope Joe doesn't read this board.

LOL ... I think Joe's dream in life is to go Norman Dale and play with four. Maybe dress 6 total with a local walk-on from Saltsburg.


Gary Edwards didn't do it by design that year ... just kind of happened. That team was just on a mission there at the end. Could be mistaking but I think the 2000 team won the Regional Final by a really big number. They had a perfect mix of skill. No depth, obviously, but an incredibly strong starting five.

Re: Iup basketball

Faulkner gets lost because of who he played with. That kid could shoot.
