My dad's 1967 @NCAA College Division Championship Team @WSSURAMS featuring @EarlThePearl_15 - Surrounded by Jim Reid, Bill English, Eugene Smiley & Johnny Watkins. Looking forward to @CBSSportsNet documentary during Black History Month on this great team - Kill, Kill, Kill! 
@NCAA @WSSURAMS @EarlThePearl_15 @CBSSportsNet 1967 @NCAA College Division Champions - @WSSURAMS - Hard to make traveling squad & even harder to get on the floor. During the championship game of the NCAA Tournament, not Mideast Regional, Dad went with 5 the entire game. Unheard of in today's game. @CBSSportsNet doc in Feb.
@NCAA @WSSURAMS @EarlThePearl_15 @CBSSportsNet Classic @EarlThePearl_15 shot from @WSSURAMS 1966-67 @NCAA Championship Season. Rams official record was 31-1 but they actually lost this game vs. @HighPointSports - HP had to forfeit the game b/c of ineligible player. HP's Gene Littles (#15) played in ABA & coached in @NBA
@NCAA @WSSURAMS @EarlThePearl_15 @CBSSportsNet @HighPointSports @NBA My dad, Clarence "Big House" Gaines with @EarlThePearl_15 & "unidentified person." - His name is Leon Whitley, convinced my dad to take Earl sight, unseen. If you want to know "the rest of the story" click on the excerpt from "They Call Me Big House","I stumble onto Earl Monroe"
@NCAA @WSSURAMS @EarlThePearl_15 @CBSSportsNet @HighPointSports @NBA '@EarlThePearl_15's game was definitely revolutionary & unorthodox. Legs splayed as he rises for his patented jumper. Game played in the bandbox known as Whitaker Gym. Note the fans standing on the baseline. Energy in the building was as good as anyplace in College Basketball.
