Did you mean to skip over the existing Paw Paw and Gobles guys already on the roster? Both have family and friends at all the home games.

The first being Shawntes' dunk at home against CMU. Sportscenter #1 that night!
Shawntes' sure had some hops!
Edit: (wrong player, sheesh - added a video too)
I don't know that Shawntes' Stane's Bufford was good for much more than dunks... but man did he ever deliver the goods in that dep't. Loved those years of Bronco Basketball!
My second favorite part about that video is the reaction from the bench. I think that's Dan Hess at the end in a white shirt. Not positive, but it looks like him.
The Ben Reed dunk just fires me up. Hell, everything about that C of C game fires me up. I had to watch it on TV and I was screaming at the set the whole game. I know several folks who were there and they all say it was one of the greatest atmospheres at a sporting event they have ever attended.
Ben Reed was special and he was local. Any opportunity to duplicate that combination deserves SERIOUS attention from the coaching staff.

I had to be in East Lansing for some lame job training session that day. ALL DAY. Taped the game and watched it at home that night (on a VCR - ha, so quaint!) and, yes, it was incredible.
But I will seriously never forgive myself for missing that in person. The job sucked anyway. Should've been there...
