1990. Kenny’s shot vs MSU. As most know, I grew up in ATL (5-15 years old) then moved back to Michigan. My uncle coached magic Johnson in HS and has a great relationship with Heathcoat and Izzo. The evening of the game, I’m back in MI on spring break, my grandparents take me to my uncles house to watch the game. I’m a 12 year old in a GT Starter jacket, hat and hoodie. When Kenny hit that shot, I jumped up on a chair and went nuts, I could just feel 20 or so grown *** men just glaring at me! Lol. All of them high level boosters at the time at State too. My grandpa, who was a Michigan fan couldn’t stop laughing. My grandma grabs me and says we have to leave now!
To this day, the 1990 tournament as a whole, was one of the best I have ever watched. The talent level on every roster was insane and they were mostly Jr and Sr players. Man. I Miss those days….
