    Definitely one of the great ambassadors for the game of basketball. His health has been bad for a while, but even when you know it's coming, it's still tough to lose people like this.

    I read Dean Smiths Autobiography and while I agreed very little with him I respected him as one of the best there was. Tark the Shark was one of us little guys. What he did with UNLV is the envy of every "Mid-Major program in college basketball" and they went after him for it too.

    He had a phenomenal winning record of .776 which is even more phenomenal considering the conference he coached in. That's the main reason he's a Naismith Memorial
    basketball hall of fame coach.

    Those UNLV teams in the late 80's and 90's were a lot of fun to watch.
