This is my unofficially named "Faulkner University/Alabama Christian College: from Dust to Digital" channel! I have just a very few things here that are not related to Faulkner/ACC, and I hope you enjoy those too!
@47:12.... TV announcers informs all watching that a call has been made to the arena "threatening the life" of GENE BANKS ( so called black player for duke). The good ole USA
@@lordkiza8838 After all these years it IS weird! That’s especially the case with today’s offenses being so oriented to shooting the 3 thanks to Steph Curry and the Warriors. Kyle Macy would have eaten up the 3-point shot in college, not to mention Larry Bird. Mark Pope might have Kentucky shooting more treys than Pitino did back in the day. Thanks for commenting!
@@dsmdgold Absolutely, and thank you for commenting! I’m glad so many people are enjoying these Scartaglen recordings. If you haven’t yet, check out my other 2 Scartaglen cassette uploads (plus my upload of 1 song that I had accidentally cut off…on this album I think). They are a treasure in my book.
I first borrowed this vinyl album from my library's AV section in ... 1991, think. When I left for college, i made a cassette recording to take with me. The library sold all the contents of the AV section, but I was in Athens, GA at the time. My recorded tape finally died its true death around 2000. I won't go in to how much this album meant to me at an important time of my life, but I haven't listened to Connie Dover sing "Lucy Ashton's Song" in about 25 years, and hearing it today ... . I burst into tears. The good kind. So thank you for this upload.
You are most welcome! Thanks so much for the kind words, and it’s humbling to me that you found this and that it means so much to you. I’ve seen Connie Dover in concert twice and she is amazing. God bless.
Thank you sooo much for sharing this lost college basketball lore. I was born in 1978 and named after Kyle Macy 🏀. Also: PLEASE include the commercials! They are hilarious
Sadly, the DVD this came from didn’t have the commercials. I think there used to be a version out there that had them, but I’m not sure if that is still the case. I agree with you! This one also doesn’t have the pregame segment/banter with the announcers: Dick Enberg, Al McGuire, and Billy Packer. I wish it did!
This was the first time where naming rights on a arena were used. The Ralston Purina Company Checkerboard (Ralston Purina Company was headquartered in Saint Louis, Missouri).
I’m glad you’re enjoying it, and thanks for commenting! It is a great collection from these guys. Fun fact: Brandon’s sister is a graduate of my online program at Faulkner.
I don't know who you are but wanted to thank you for posting this. I was the RF for Faulkner #21. I can't find my DVD for this game so this is the only way I can go back and rewatch it. Just wanted to say thanks
24:27 Gene Banks took only 2 steps and his foot did not touch the endline. Awful call. 2 goaltending calls against Gminski were bogus. And the technical call on Bill Foster was a crime against humanity.
@@Michael-mt1zq and Duke had to play Kentucky AT Rupp in the S16 in 1980. Brutal game. they had little chance to rest before playing Purdue on Sunday morning. In the 1998 Elite 8 Duke was dominating KY before the lights went out and changed the momentum of the game. The Cats have had more than their fair share of luck. The same is true for UConn.
Someone else asked that question on here, and the answer I think was that the Checkerdome floor as damaged or was going to be replaced and so they borrowed the one from Indy. I’m sure Hoosier fans and Bobby Knight hated that we won a natty on their court. Haha.
That whole situation with Norton wasn’t his fault. He beat Jimmy Young to become the #1 contender and then Spinks beat Ali. Spinks didn’t want to fight Norton so he could have a big money rematch with Ali. During negotiations for a Spinks Norton fight Norton was offered a ridiculously low purse of $200 000. He felt insulted by the offer but took it since it was as a title fight. The Spinks team expected him to reject the offer which meant a fight with Ali could happen with nothing in between. Since Norton took the offer they had to fight or vacate the WBC title. They chose to vacate the WBC title And the WBC retroactively made the Norton Young fight a title fight And awarded the title to Norton. Norton lost the title to Larry Holmes in his First title defense in June in a classic bout.
So wonderful to have been a part of this… I always say the silhouette of the female singer on the cover’s front row is me!! lol… definitely my hair!! Lolol…. ~Brigette Burns
Came hear to remember this team since they're honoring them tomorrow at Rupp for the 40th anniversary! Thanks for the video...pretty good clarity (for the time)
I missed that they’ll be at Rupp tomorrow. I’ll definitely have to try to catch that! Thanks for commenting and for letting me know about them being honored. The credit for the clarity of the video goes to the person who shared it with me. Thanks again, and go Cats!
Yes, that is correct. UK used to play on SB Sunday quite a bit, several years in a row I think. I remember one year they played Oklahoma, and they won when Rex Chapman got a layup on a last second inbounds play from under the basket. Thanks for commenting!
That NBC pre-game. I watched this when I was a junior at another basketball-crazed Midwest university and wanted nothing more than to have a job like Bryant Gumbel's. Traveling around the country introducing college hoop tournament drama.
What made this team unbeatable in the tournament was the guard play claytor and Macy kept their focus well definitely against Arkansas where they never faced such a great backcort before they were nice
my redskins let me down in that superbowl they kept hyping. but later, in march, my hoyas stepped up big time. it's remarkable that georgetown actually beat both of these teams decisively to win the crown. michael graham, the best college player to never play one game in the nba.
My Bengals have let me down in 3 Super Bowls, and they were all close. It’s frustrating that they’ve never pulled one out. And yes, the Hoyas were beasts in that year. I still can’t believe how poorly UK played against them in that 2nd half. Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@patrickdaly5068 christ i was watching that at a high school kegger as a 16 year old🤣. Think Kentucky was up four or five at the break? That bald headed Graham got a buncha dunks in the 2nd. Those were good days for basketball
Thanks for your interest! Unfortunately, RU-vid won’t let us post links to other sites in the comments, so look up the website for Faulkner University in Montgomery, AL, then find the Admissions department, and they can let you know if they still have some of the CDs. Thanks again!
Hello again, Shelly. Someone in Admissions told me she heard from you. That’s awesome! Since you like this upload, check out my channel for a lot of Cornerstone music from the 80’s and all the way up to the 2010s. They may still have some CDs of other years. God bless.
@@patrickdaly5068 Friends of mine are connected to Faulkner and introduced me to Cornerstone. I fell in love immediately. This is the first album I listened to and is my favorite. Listening to it here brought back a flood of good memories. I was driving and praising the Lord! Thank you for your help!
I come back to listen to this song a lot. Kathy's voice just is so beautiful. Just can't seem to get enough of this song. Only wish there were more songs where you can hear her singing.
If it wasn't for the bad 2nd half shooting in Seattle, I think we would have been the national champion, true cat's fan here,go big blue. Bye the way, whatever happened to Georgetown.
