Message: [QUOTE="rip7774, post: 3515060, member: 320"] Purv was a great ambassador during a dark time. Wish him all the best in hoops and life. Feel like if we had Calhoun or Dan Hurley, guys with a lot of ability like Purv and Brimah (believe he was impacted more than anyone) would have grown a lot more as players. But maybe the adversity grew them as people. Always felt like Purv was a leader and positive force in a sea of negativity in the program and will always be grateful for him! As an aside, every time my kids and I watch a game to this day and someone steps out of bounds without any pressure, my kids all say "Purvis"! Seemed like he stepped out a lot I guess trying to get a head of steam for a drive. Certainly wasn't easy to play offense during his career so no ill will to him! Love Purv! [/QUOTE]
