Big David Willard..(UNLV) He was the first Dude I met on Chula Vista HS Basketball Team my short time there. I remember him being a very enthusiastic, 6'7" 15 year old with a size 17 shoe. It took me until 50 for my foot to get that big.
This was in reference to the Dana Kirk scandal where he was forced to vacate all tournament appearances from 1982 to 1986 including their 1985 final four appearance. He even spent some time in jail for the incident. Memphis was ineligible for the 1987 ncaa tournament due to ncaa violations but returned in 1988 and Finch's teams only missed the post season once between 1988-1997.

Dana Kirk who was the coach of the University of Memphis in 1985 Memphis went to the Final Four and Dana Kirk bet against his own team that's why he was fired
