It was great back in the 90's. There were several very strong students who went to SIU, from all over the world.

Having moved to So. Cal Long Beach in summer of 76 I heard about em.
A yr or so later we crossed paths.
One thing jumped out at me!
He always wore collared short sleeved shirts with his ''tails'' hanging out.
Well tell the tail.
He'd practiced so much on the GC, the metal edges cut horizontal holes into his shirt tails just below the beltline.
I said to myself, I'm just starting to Play that much, this man plays ALLOT.... so respect/avoidance/rumor mill were in play.
Don't think Hashimoto would of matched up with him in Public view back then.
Some of the old timers would matchup privately, Heubert Cokes/Fats Was a great example.

I was around So Cal when Brian was giving Little Al the 7 and Al played left hand. Brian finally bailed on that saying he saw the light.
