the most violent and dangerous incident that has happened in American sports. Its an outrage that some of the Minnesota basketball players were not charged with a crime. A pox on Bill Musselman for creating the conditions that allowed that to happen. Luke Witte was a burgeoning All American center and he was never the same after that game.

Rudy Tomjanovich would like a word

I was a big OSU Basketball fan at the time and was in absolute shock at what I was seeing. It was terrifying even seeing it on TV. I hope your friend was not one of the OSU players who was badly hurt. Mark Wager and one other player were hospitalized in addition to Luke Witte.
