The story goes he grew up playing against Ralph Sampson. He knew his moves and was unafraid. Add to that they had an awesome shooting game and great coaching. Made for quite a game.

I don’t think UH “dropped the ball” on this. If Virginia played in the Classic, who’s to say that UH would have played Virginia and beat them.

UH had their moments in beating teams like Kansas (that I think they when to the final 4 that year), but that did not save the Classic as we know it before.

Unfortunately, it became finding sponsors and finding top teams to play here.

But that day when Chaminade beat Virginia, it didn’t matter if you were a UH fan or a Chaminade fan, it was a GREAT victory for the State of Hawaii and for Chaminade.

So that means if UH were smart, they would have gotten one of the other teams to cancel and the Rainbow Classic would have been the defacto holiday tournament out here in Hawaii instead of the Maui Invitational. Someone in the UH Athletic Department really dropped the ball on this one by not booking Virginia! Missed opportunities. *sigh*
