TBT 1989 Hoos vs UNC at home

Richard “Dicky Mo” Morgan goes off in UHall vs UNC. Maybe greatest performance the old Hall has ever seen by one player. And another number 11 for the Wahoos.

I was 11 years old. Remember it well. Spent a lot of time in the driveway trying to imitate Richard Morgan. :rofl:

He’s the head coach at Bluefield College now.

WOW! Thanks I remember that game like it was yesterday. Morgan was absolutely unconscious that day. I saw this headline and this old Wahoo got shivers, lol. You guys are doing great work here. HGN, I was 32 then. You was still a kid. Love to see more of this

I was there. I don’t think U-Hall was ever louder. I wish the highlight had shown him pulling up for a three on a fast break. Coach Holland wasn’t even there. Coach Odom was the head coach that day.
