Ali Danois Author of The Boys of Dunbar: A Story of Love, Hope, and Basketball/Baltimore Boys Documentary, Former Editor and Chief of The Shadow League
On today’s Episode we are continuing our deep dive into the book and documentary about the legendary high school basketball team The Dunbar Poets. Our guest today Alijandro Danois chronicled this team in his book The Boys of Dunbar and was in the documentary follow up Baltimore Boys. This corner of Hardwood History helps tell the story of basketball and basketball culture that we all enjoy today. It is also an American story and helps explain the difficulties of post industrial cities and the game that helped some boys escape these difficult circumstances. Let’s get into it.

Georgetown Hoyas Gear - You can walk the streets of Baltimore like the Dunbar legends or just look good in this gear.
Wake Forest Gear - Not quite Mugsy but he would be proud of these.
The Boys of Dunbar - Read or Listen to the book you won't be dissapointed

SLAM 5 Star - Ali wrote many of the columns in the magazine. The Mugsy story alone is worth purchase.
Baltimore Boys - The documentary covers some of the stories from the book but is more of an extension of the subject matter.

Indiana vs. Michigan State 2001(Changing of the guard and a Kirk Haston Miracle) Dec 30, 2020

Show notes

Send us Fan Mail

19Nine Classic Michigan State vs. Indiana January 2001

Recorded: 28 December 2020/10:00 PM

GUESTS: Aaron Meyer, Josh Barnett David Wilkinson

Set the Scene (Knight talking on Dunn Meadow then Play Audio from Haston talk about Knight)

The whole scene was eerily similar to the last time the Spartans played in Assembly Hall. The Hoosiers made a quick putback with half a second left to give IU an 81-79 victory Feb. 26. Until Sunday, it was the last time Michigan State had lost. The Spartans reeled off 23 consecutive victories. "This was a lot like last year, but this is better," Fife said. "It's a little more exciting that last year's tip-in because Michigan State is No. 1." On paper, the Spartans (12-1, 1-1 Big Ten) entered the game as the superior team. They lead IU (10-6, 1-1) in nearly every major statistical category during the season including scoring, defense, rebounding, turnovers and shooting percentage .
Michigan State arrived at Assembly Hall on Sunday with the No. 1 ranking, an unbeaten record and the nation's longest winning streak.
Kirk Haston's buzzer-beating 3-pointer changed all that ."It's a big win for us, that goes without saying," said Haston, who finished with 27 points. "To be the only team to beat this team, and we beat them two times in a row pretty much, and they're one of the best teams in the country if not the best team in the country, it's a big win for all the past players here and all the players on the team." "I didn't want to go to overtime," he said. "If we missed the shot, we missed it."
Thousands of fans -- many of them IU students -- stood in the bleachers screaming. Sophomore guard forward Jason Richardson led the Spartans with 15 points. Richardson missed the front end of a one-and-one with 29 seconds left. Sophomore guard Tom Coverdale grabbed the rebound and called a time out. Two missed shots, two fouls and three free throws later, the Hoosiers called a time out. In the huddle, Davis told his team to run the play "23 Special," which would give either Hornsby or Haston a three-point look. "When I let it go, I couldn't see it because Randolph was in my face," Haston said after the game. "It felt good when it left my hand. When it went through, the first thing I did was look up at the clock, and I saw all zeroes. Then Coverdale tackled me -- along with the student body."
