Good program climbing up to the AAC next year

 

[RUPete]

Nice landing spot for him. I wish him all the best.

 

[Good-Knight]

Good for him. He's from North Carolina. All the best.

 

[WhichReligionIsRight]

Congrats to him. I think he'll play big minutes next year.

 

[PiscatawayMike]

All the best to Dean!

UNCC made the Final Four in 1977, a year after Rutgers. UNCC was led by Cedric "Cornbread" Maxwell and Perth Amboy's Chad Kinch, who died way too young.

Good luck to Dean at Charlotte.

Best of Luck,
Groz

 

[BuggsyRU]

Yes and if I recall correctly, they were part of that MSG tripleheader when we destroyed nationally ranked Cincy - my first in-person Rutgers basketball game.

Looks like Dean found a good spot.
Hope he does well there

I was there. Great day. Total annihilation of a heavily favored team.

In addition to our win SHU lost to UNCC. I sat next to Chad Kinch’s family and they had a huge grudge against SHU because Kinch expected to go there and Rafftery first surprised him by pulling the rug out, then tried to get Kinch to flip back after someone else dissed SHU. Maxwell was impressive.

Am I correct that South Florida played as well that day?

 

[DowntownT_Brown]

Thanks for everything Dean!!

 

[Scarlet Blind]

Reiber will be a solid stretch big in the new AAC.

The only one left is Oskar. I would think he will get decent offers from some top/middle of the pack mid majors with 3 1/2 years coaching and S&C in the B1G and 2 years left.

 

[RU-ROCS]

I always liked Dean and wish him nothing but the best in Charlotte. I'm sure it will be great to be so much closer to family who can come and see him play.

 

[RUpop]

Best wishes Dean and thanks for all the blood, sweat and tears you put into RU basketball.

 

[Nycrusupporter]

I felt like he never got untracked last year after his preseason foot injury, and was playing without any confidence. Hope he has a nice bounce back year next year.

Guessing he will be a valuable piece for them.

Good luck Dean. Look forward to keeping an eye out for Charlotte, Oral Roberts, and wherever Oskar ends up

 

[robjknight]

Dean,
Thanks for being a great teammate and role model. I know you will have success wherever you go in basketball and beyond.

 

[ru66]

Did he get that 75000 or was that more bs?

 

[LotusAggressor]

All the best to Dean!

Cedric Maxwell. There's a blast from the past. Great player on those early 80s Celtic teams.

Well, I was able to answer my own question. South Florida did play that day, lost to pre-Jeff Ruland, Jim Valvano coached Iona.

I remember now that Chad Kinch’s brother, Ray Kinch, had played football at Rutgers, but died in a fire when he tried to get others out of a burning house. This was what caused his brother Chad’s
downward spiral.
