I have a few other cool things too. My favorite would have to be my jersey from the very first UAB baseball season.
JBall, where did you get that Great Alaska Shootout belt buckle? (I have one of those too.)
Derrick was a Freshman on Gene's first 1978-79 Team. He graduated from Carver High School. He was stout, about 6'4", weighed around 225. He was a point guard. He transferred after two seasons, I think. Just recently someone said he lives here in Birmingham. I haven't seen him in almost forty years.
