1978 NIT-Abe Lemons & Texas Take Manhattan

Great memories of that time. I graduated in spring ‘78, so breaking in the Drum that way, on the heels of an unexpectedly great football season, was about as close to a perfect year as any Texas fan could have hoped for. Had we just beat ND in the Cotton Bowl...but oh, well. 

People who weren’t around Austin back then have no idea what a thrilling time it was. I’m convinced the basketball team would have made serious noise in the NCAAs, because so many guys on that team were unlikely assassins. They’d have wiped the MSG floor with this year’s Texas squad.
