Little Rock beats Texas-Arlington with student managers

[superjohn]

Due to Covid issues Little Rock went into the game with 7 players. Four players fouled out and they won a two point game with student managers playing. What a cool story.

Lifetime dream for the manager, good for him.

Well at least this makes Pikiell's pitiful loss to a bad Minnesota team without 3 of its 4 top scorers not look so bad.

I vaguely remember a game between UConn vs Rutgers when RU was short players and mangers needed to suit up and play..don’t remember the details but pretty sure the outcome for RU didn’t result in a win. Can anyone dig into the archives for more detail?

Don't worry, I got your joke and thought it was pretty funny.

I'm looking up this game and I see nine players played for Little Rock, eight of which are scholarship players and the ninth is a walk-on who has gotten minutes in all four years at Little Rock.

Hate to damper on a cool story, but I'm not buying it.

Blame Scott Van Pelt and the other guy doing the college hoops roundup. I posted what they said, Van Pelt called it one of the coolest things you'll ever see in sports or something to that effect.

A shame they had to lose their redshirt years.

Then there was the year that the Huskies roster was so thin we had to recruit Greg Economu from intramurals to play, and he did so reasonably well......

Lol remember that game @ Houston final year in the AAC when our walk on took the game winning shot. Goofy ending

There was a championship team that had a manager play in a state semifinal, IIRC. Knocked in the two free throws, too.
