Coach Loos lettered 3 seasons for the tiger basketball team in 1966-1969 and played baseball for the tigers from 1967-1969.
Austin Peay beat the tigers in 2002 under coach Calipari in his 3rd season here (81-80 in overtime)

Coach Loos is a great guy.
Jeez, that was a dark night for Tiger Basketball.
Massie and Burks didn't play that night and we were coming off an upset of the eventual National Champion Syracuse at the Garden. Nathaniel Root played major minutes. Loos was the best assistant Larry ever had. When he left the coaching went downhill.

We were at MSG for that Syracuse game.... Almost went to jail that night after 2 smartazz Syracuse students got really ugly with us as they were leaving. That was a fun trip!
Remember the overtime game game against Austin Peay back in 2009? Or was it 2010...?
Hard to FaceBook from a jail cell.

I was there. It was understandable. We only had 6 or 7 players for that game. Root played major minutes.

There wasn't even cell phones, much less internet available for regular folks back then.
