What ever happened to ol Mingo....I liked him

Let me tell you who I hated: Chris Wilson dude lit us up back in the day.

I was a student at UC when Wilson put like 34 on us or something like that.

That was Michael Wild thing Wilson. He went on to become a Harlem Globetrotter and set the world's record for the highest dunk.

that's right...Michael wilson

that team pg was Chris Garner....

my bad

What happened to Mingo? I like him.

I think Wilson put 44 on you. Don't know what happened to Mingo.

Wilson had 33 or 34 or so.

as a frosh, Sean Banks went off on Cincy....prompting Huggy to call him a lotto pick and "push" him to the draft

regarding Cincy, I remember all you guys back from the mid-70's to now....

Bob Miller
Pat Cummings (RIP)
Gary Yoder
Van Exel
Steve Logan
Kenyon Martin

and many more....

Look forward to a Friday matchup!!

Van Exel. That name still gives me heartburn.

Yep, you're right.

"On March 2, 1995, the Tigers capture the 1995 Great Midwest Conference title with a win on the road against Cincinnati. Junior Michael Wilson exploded for 33 points."

Mingo is currently a coach/personal trainer

thx for the update on Mingo!

this clip picks up with 8 minutes remaining in the first half and cincinnati leading 33-19 over memphis and features a furious 2 minute rally led by michael wilson to tie the game. played at cincinnati's shoemaker center on feburary 5, 1995

that was a great team that doesnt get its due IMO. this was the opening page of Sports Illustrated college basketball issue the next season

Cincinnati must have missed 20 point blank shots in those 8:00
It looked like a lid on their basket.

I have an 80lb pit/pointer mix named Mingo Johnson....Not just "Mingo", but "Mingo Johnson".

If this animal doesn't respond to the command, "D-UP Mango," then this is a fail...

I think Chris Garner could be the quickest person I've ever seen on a basketball court... Joe Jackson included.

Did that team have Ced Henderson? That was a good Memphis team...what, Garner, Johnson, Wright, Hederson, Wilson correct?

Yes, Cedric Henderson, too.

Watching this video, I had forgotten completely that David Vaughn was sidelined (in suit and tie) most of that season.

All I remember about that Cincy game is thinking Curtis Bostic seemed like he was a 6 yr. senior.

Mingo Johnson's 32 point game against Arkansas in the '95 Midwest Regional was one of the most exciting post-season efforts I've seen, even though the Tigers lost it in overtime.

Yep Vaughn was never the same after the injury..
