[QUOTE="99jacket, post: 283283, member: 1994"] So since some of you are throwing out memories and dates from the your days as students I will take a swipe. I was at Tech Fall of 94- Spring of 99. In other words basically the end of the Cremins era. It's interesting listening to some who are a little younger than me describe a different experience than what I had a few years earlier. When I was there, especially 94-95 - 95-96 seasons, were some magical moments in Alexander Memorial as it was known back then. The student section was full or near full for every ACC Home game. And if UNC or Duke was coming to town we would camp out for 2 days to get tickets. (Admittedly the Cremins era kind of unraveled after that 95-96 season and the memories became less fond and frequent.) The loudest I ever remember AMC was actually a weeknight home game vs Clemson my Frehman year. We were pulling away from Clemson in the 2nd half. Drew Barry ran a back door baseline cut for an alley-oop from TRAVIS Best. Drew was bumped by his guy coming off a screen and got turned around. So he goes up backwards and still somehow manages to catch the pass. He then threw down a vicious, no look, two-handed slam and the place absolutely erupted. We went from about 8 up to about 20 up in about 2 minutes after that. Clemson fell apart because of the noise level. I tell that story, ok admittedly to reminisce a little, to say that I hope that is the direction we appear to be headed under CJP. His passion and ability to cast a vision remind me of Cremins. Also they both embraced the fan base like few do. I never felt that Hewitt or Gregory really understood the importance of those things and this is why they ultimately struggled at Tech. [/QUOTE]
