It still pains me that we lost b/c an injury to our star frontcourt player in the Final Four . Barnes injury could be fixed in the locker room in today's medical world .. like a dislocated finger or shoulder . No mention of Larry Kat in your article ... we can't sweep controversy under the rug... If you read the book " Bad News ; the Turbulent Life of Marvin Barnes " Marvin is not found guilty of striking Larry K with a tire iron...read the court evidence.. The potential of a UCLA vs PC in NCAA 1973 finals on a neutral court w/o home west coast refs would have been the game of that century.
