- 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,000
- Times are changing.
- 2
- 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,000
- I'm Ed Sullivan. And this is Broadway.
- 3
- 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,000
- I have a dream.
- 4
- 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,000
- I am the greatest!
- 5
- 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,000
- By the content
- of their character.
- 6
- 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,000
- Hey. You guys are playing like girls.
- 7
- 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,000
- Are you kiddin' me?
- 8
- 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,000
- Hey, hey, Winnaker,
- do you want me to get you a skirt?
- 9
- 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,000
- I'll get you a skirt
- if you keep playing like a girl.
- 10
- 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,000
- There it is, there it is.
- Come on, set it up.
- 11
- 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,000
- Bring it down, bring it down.
- Set it up! Set it up!
- 12
- 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,000
- There it is. Pop the ball.
- Pop it in there, pop it in there.
- 13
- 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,000
- All right, good. There it is.
- 14
- 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,000
- Congratulations, Coach.
- 15
- 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,000
- Unh!
- 16
- 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,000
- - That's good. That's perfect.
- - OK. You do that.
- 17
- 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:54,000
- Get your arm up. There it is.
- That's good, that's perfect.
- 18
- 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:55,000
- You go like this.
- 19
- 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:56,880
- - Shush.
- 20
- 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,840
- All right. Here you go.
- 21
- 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,320
- - My dad can slam-dunk it.
- - Let me do it. Let me do it, Dad!
- 22
- 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,720
- Great. All right, Mark, that's good.
- That's good ball-handling.
- 23
- 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,440
- Brent, you ready? This is a bounce pass.
- 24
- 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,880
- - It's all right. You'll live.
- 25
- 00:02:15,920 --> 00:02:18,960
- - It wasn't me. It was Dad.
- - Traitor.
- 26
- 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,200
- I'm not getting in trouble.
- 27
- 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,400
- Catch it with your hands,
- not your arms.
- 28
- 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,360
- Hello.
- 29
- 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:29,280
- This is Don.
- 30
- 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:33,320
- We know you blew out your knee.
- It's tough, giving up a dream, starting over,
- 31
- 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:37,040
- but I'm glad to hear you're interested
- in a coaching position, Mr. Haskins.
- 32
- 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,440
- McCarty here says you're a winner.
- 33
- 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:43,240
- I sure appreciate that.
- Now, my style of coaching is one that...
- 34
- 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,920
- You played for Mr. Iba, so you know
- how to reign in these unruly boys.
- 35
- 00:02:46,920 --> 00:02:50,520
- Sir, I do believe in discipline.
- Now, my basketball philosophy is...
- 36
- 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:55,320
- Mr. Haskins. You know, we're a small
- school and we can't pay very much.
- 37
- 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,200
- So we're gonna need you to live
- in the men's dorm with your family
- 38
- 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,600
- and keep those boys in line over there.
- 39
- 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,840
- But your meals are free at the cafeteria.
- 40
- 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:10,880
- And you got plenty of Texas sunshine.
- So... how's it sound?
- 41
- 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,560
- If that's what it takes
- to coach Division I basketball, then...
- 42
- 00:03:17,640 --> 00:03:19,880
- ha-ha-ha, that's all right with me.
- 43
- 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,040
- It's just a dusty old cow town.
- 44
- 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,520
- Yeah, but if it's got a court with a roof
- and uniforms that match,
- 45
- 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:30,040
- then I wanna coach there.
- I wanna play against the best.
- 46
- 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,640
- I just wanted to thank you
- for bringing me on.
- 47
- 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:34,280
- Us Aggies gotta stick together.
- 48
- 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,240
- - You've been here a few weeks.
- - Yeah.
- 49
- 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,160
- What you think?
- 50
- 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:44,120
- It ain't much, but we can do something
- with it. Here we go. Ready?
- 51
- 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,960
- This is where you're gonna be living.
- 52
- 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:48,520
- Hey, Coach.
- 53
- 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,960
- Ross Moore, team trainer
- and spiritual advisor.
- 54
- 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,800
- We're gonna need some of that.
- This is my wife, Mary.
- 55
- 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,080
- Hi, Mrs. Haskins. Come on in here.
- 56
- 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,120
- - Hate to put you out.
- - Oh, no.
- 57
- 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,360
- You ain't putting me out.
- Don't think about it.
- 58
- 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,560
- I'm thinking about leaving
- this prize gator here for you.
- 59
- 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,160
- - Makes a fine ceiling ornament.
- - Cool.
- 60
- 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:08,800
- You hear that? I made up my mind.
- 61
- 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,880
- That little boy love that gator.
- I'm gonna leave him there.
- 62
- 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:15,120
- I've been checking the cupboard.
- It's a little bare.
- 63
- 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:18,400
- We got Baudoin outta Albuquerque,
- 20 points a game last year.
- 64
- 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:23,400
- Got us a Missouri boy. Fast and tough
- on defense - a kid named Armstrong.
- 65
- 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:29,200
- David Palacio,
- he's the top prep scorer in El Paso.
- 66
- 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,320
- Waiting on junior-college transfers.
- 67
- 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:35,520
- And Jerry in Housing says
- on taco night, we get a real good crowd.
- 68
- 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,240
- Taco night?
- 69
- 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:38,920
- Taco night.
- 70
- 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,520
- What's the budget for recruiting?
- 71
- 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,360
- Ross says the budget's in the lights.
- 72
- 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,840
- How can I have a winning team
- with no budget for recruiting?
- 73
- 00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:00,680
- Now, listen, Coach. Football is king here.
- 74
- 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,120
- And basketball sucks hind tit.
- 75
- 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:07,280
- I'll shake down the boosters for a few more
- bucks, get a couple more scholarships.
- 76
- 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:08,680
- A few more bucks?
- 77
- 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,280
- I gotta go find players. How can I recruit
- with one or two scholarships?
- 78
- 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:16,520
- Do you forget where you come from, Don?
- Coaching high school girls.
- 79
- 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:20,360
- Take a look around you.
- This ain't Kansas, Duke, Kentucky.
- 80
- 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:24,400
- We're a poor school that counts
- every penny to pay for a river rat's dream
- 81
- 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:25,920
- of a college education.
- 82
- 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,280
- We're lucky to put a decent team
- on the court.
- 83
- 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,760
- Well, decent don't cut it with me.
- 84
- 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,360
- Duke's where you wanna go.
- 85
- 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,200
- Hey, how you doing?
- Don Haskins, Texas Western.
- 86
- 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,000
- How you doing? Don Haskins.
- 87
- 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,800
- - See anyone you like?
- - What about number three over there?
- 88
- 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:48,000
- Jason Stevens out of Chicago.
- 18 points a game.
- 89
- 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,840
- Hasn't signed a letter of intent yet.
- 90
- 00:05:50,840 --> 00:05:52,600
- Jason!
- 91
- 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,520
- Beating a dead horse there, Don.
- 92
- 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,800
- - Jason, Don Haskins, Texas Western.
- - Western Union?
- 93
- 00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:59,920
- Texas Western, down in El Paso.
- 94
- 00:05:59,920 --> 00:06:03,200
- After the game, I'd like to talk to you
- about playing for me.
- 95
- 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:08,320
- Play for you at Texas Western?
- Thanks, Coach, but I'm partial to winning.
- 96
- 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:16,320
- How about that big ol' tall boy?
- Made All-Jayhawk Conference last year.
- 97
- 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,240
- Gonna sign with Kansas.
- 98
- 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,920
- You wanna talk to Bobby Joe Hill?
- 99
- 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,680
- Son, you can't win playing nigger ball.
- 100
- 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,720
- Sure, they can jump, but they can't lead.
- 101
- 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,400
- Can't handle the pressure.
- Don't have enough intelligence.
- 102
- 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,480
- That boy in particular.
- No-account smart-mouth.
- 103
- 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:03,960
- Just tell me where I can find him.
- 104
- 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:10,080
- Excuse me. I'm the basketball coach
- down at Texas Western.
- 105
- 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:13,120
- - I'd like to talk to you about playing there.
- - No, thanks.
- 106
- 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:16,800
- I'm done playing this game.
- They hardly put me on the floor tonight.
- 107
- 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,000
- - I'm offering a full scholarship.
- - Uh-huh.
- 108
- 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,760
- You sign me up like your token Negro,
- bury me at the end of the bench.
- 109
- 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,440
- I'd rather hang it up. Do something else.
- 110
- 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:29,080
- Be the next Smokey Robinson.
- I might even run for president.
- 111
- 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,360
- You got a real talent, son.
- Why throw it away?
- 112
- 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:37,720
- I'll tell you why. Ever since I was a kid, I
- only loved one thing - that was playing ball.
- 113
- 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:41,120
- Do you understand what that's like,
- to have that ball in your hand?
- 114
- 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,520
- It's like making sweet music
- with your game.
- 115
- 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:47,080
- Only thing is,
- you don't wanna hear the song.
- 116
- 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,640
- You talk a good game, Hill.
- 117
- 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:57,120
- I didn't come here to find a player
- I could sit on the bench.
- 118
- 00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,760
- I intend to start you -
- start NCAA Division One ball.
- 119
- 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:05,160
- What is it with you, mister?
- I've accepted it. What are you smoking?
- 120
- 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,040
- I ain't smoking nothing, son.
- 121
- 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:14,720
- Now, you just told me about a big old
- dream you have. I can let you play.
- 122
- 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:19,840
- I can help you make your dream come true
- faster than a twister'll take your socks off.
- 123
- 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:26,400
- You talk funny.
- 124
- 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,720
- So do you.
- 125
- 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,040
- You gonna let a black player play
- from the get-go?
- 126
- 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:35,240
- I don't see color. I see quick,
- I see skill, and that's what you have.
- 127
- 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,400
- And that's what I'm putting on the court.
- 128
- 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,040
- So, what is this team, anyway?
- 129
- 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,920
- All right, that New York recruiter,
- Hilton White.
- 130
- 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,040
- He's got three boys up there now.
- They're just playground kids.
- 131
- 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,320
- He said they could play with anybody.
- 132
- 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:01,760
- Every one of these players
- you're looking at is colored, Don.
- 133
- 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:04,560
- How many are you recruiting?
- 134
- 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,880
- We need seven players on this team
- who can put it in the hole and rebound.
- 135
- 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,280
- Now, if they're colored, well, fine.
- 136
- 00:09:11,560 --> 00:09:15,000
- Well, then now, Coach,
- let me try to paint you a little picture.
- 137
- 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,560
- There are no coloreds playing
- Division One basketball in the South.
- 138
- 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:23,200
- Not in the SEC, not in the ACC
- and not in the SWC.
- 139
- 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,640
- But you go and put seven of 'em
- on our team.
- 140
- 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,840
- Am I losing my hearing?
- Do I need a darn hearing aid?
- 141
- 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,720
- No, Ross. I intend to win.
- 142
- 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:36,080
- Shoot. You carrying on like Negroes
- gonna be the future of basketball.
- 143
- 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:37,960
- Could you imagine that?
- 144
- 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,000
- There are rules. Unwritten rules.
- 145
- 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:45,320
- You play one at home, two on the road
- and three if you're losing.
- 146
- 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,680
- Lord have mercy. Loadin' up
- on Negroes, that just ain't done.
- 147
- 00:09:48,680 --> 00:09:53,840
- You gonna put your career at risk,
- my career at risk and Moe's career at risk.
- 148
- 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,560
- If that wasn't bad enough, we ain't
- even got enough gas money to get home.
- 149
- 00:09:57,680 --> 00:10:00,080
- Ain't it lucky you don't got
- to worry about that?
- 150
- 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,080
- 'Cause you'll be out on the first bus
- to New York tomorrow.
- 151
- 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:07,600
- You're sending me there for schoolyard
- players? You gotta be out of your mind.
- 152
- 00:10:07,680 --> 00:10:10,360
- And who's paying for all this,
- if you don't mind me asking?
- 153
- 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:14,440
- You wanna win. You gotta
- recruit. That's how the big boys do it.
- 154
- 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,320
- It was a good game, man.
- 155
- 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,320
- Hey, kid, you got a minute?
- 156
- 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,280
- Mama baked a pie. One piece left,
- it's got my name all over it.
- 157
- 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,080
- Hey, kid, you got a minute?
- 158
- 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:36,560
- - You know that guy?
- - What? No.
- 159
- 00:10:36,560 --> 00:10:38,840
- Kid, you got a minute?
- 160
- 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:40,880
- Run. Run!
- 161
- 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,000
- Hey, Charlie!
- 162
- 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:54,840
- Hey, Mama. You're not gonna believe
- what just happened to me and Alvin.
- 163
- 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:57,800
- Almost got jumped
- by a couple of crackers.
- 164
- 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,120
- I'm just dying for a piece of that...
- 165
- 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,800
- ...pie.
- - Ma'am, this pie is so good,
- 166
- 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:05,080
- it makes me mad at my mama.
- 167
- 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:08,440
- This is Mr. Haskins.
- He come all the way from El Paso, Texas.
- 168
- 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:10,640
- He want you to play basketball
- on a scholarship.
- 169
- 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,680
- Texas? To get lynched?
- 170
- 00:11:13,680 --> 00:11:18,720
- Now, El Paso's not like the rest of Texas.
- It's, um... It's more cosmopolitan.
- 171
- 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,000
- Pops already got me a good job
- at the factory...
- 172
- 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:24,200
- - I always wanted an education for Harry.
- - They got schools here.
- 173
- 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:27,920
- I don't feel comfortable
- sending my boy that far away
- 174
- 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,400
- and trusting him to a stranger.
- 175
- 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:35,600
- I know. I understand. I will look
- after him like he's one of my own.
- 176
- 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:39,760
- - You ate my pie.
- - We're church people around here.
- 177
- 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,040
- Are you?
- 178
- 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,240
- I won't lie.
- I hadn't been to church in so long,
- 179
- 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,640
- I can't remember
- which day of the week it falls on.
- 180
- 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,920
- I'm ashamed to say I'm... I'm just a wretch.
- 181
- 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:57,960
- Well...
- 182
- 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:02,200
- We all fall short.
- And we're saved by grace.
- 183
- 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,720
- - Tell me more about El Paso.
- - No, Mama. Mama, come on, now.
- 184
- 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:10,880
- It's lovely, ma'am. It's right on the banks
- of the Rio Grande. It's a little oasis.
- 185
- 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,320
- Nah.
- 186
- 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:17,000
- - I got plenty of offers.
- - Yeah?
- 187
- 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,960
- From who? Duke? Kansas?
- 188
- 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,960
- - I'm playing for the Globetrotters.
- - It's probably for the best.
- 189
- 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:30,640
- You're better off with the Trotters
- playing its team of patsies every night.
- 190
- 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:36,000
- You can't get past an average defender in
- our league with that fancy dribble of yours.
- 191
- 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:38,840
- Man, no offense, but that's bull.
- 192
- 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:41,360
- Hey, brother, no offense,
- but without work,
- 193
- 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,200
- I don't think you'd get past
- a beat-up old-timer like me.
- 194
- 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:47,880
- Get past you?
- 195
- 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:53,280
- I would go past you, through you,
- over you, under you, around you.
- 196
- 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,960
- As a matter of fact,
- I'll spin you like a top,
- 197
- 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,560
- eat your lunch, steal your girl
- and kick your dog at the same time.
- 198
- 00:13:00,680 --> 00:13:01,840
- Get past you.
- 199
- 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:06,080
- - Come on, Orsten!
- - Hey, come on.
- 200
- 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:07,120
- Do your thang.
- 201
- 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,000
- - You fouling me.
- - You call that a foul?
- 202
- 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,880
- My three year old calls that a love tap.
- 203
- 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:15,840
- Ooh! Come on, man.
- 204
- 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,440
- Hey, hold it, hold it.
- 205
- 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,640
- You expect me to react to all
- that head-shake and body gyration?
- 206
- 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,960
- It's activity without accomplishment.
- 207
- 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:27,560
- You got the ball in front of you.
- You ain't going anywhere without it.
- 208
- 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:31,360
- Try this. It's called a rocker step.
- You ready? Get in your stance.
- 209
- 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:33,440
- OK?
- 210
- 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,160
- The difference between me and you
- is I got the ball protected.
- 211
- 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,440
- It looks like I'm starting to dribble,
- so you react, and when you do,
- 212
- 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,120
- cross over, dribble right by you.
- 213
- 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:48,280
- Try it. It's simple, but it'll make
- that pretty little shot of yours work.
- 214
- 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,320
- First time. There it is.
- 215
- 00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:59,400
- Excuse me!
- 216
- 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,480
- I'm looking for three guys. Uh...
- 217
- 00:14:01,560 --> 00:14:04,440
- Names of Nevil Shed,
- 218
- 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:08,000
- Willie Worsley and Willie Cager.
- 219
- 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,400
- They're colored boys.
- You know them?
- 220
- 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:12,800
- - Did he say "colored"?
- - He said what I think he did.
- 221
- 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:14,040
- Yeah.
- 222
- 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:18,560
- And I don't think he was talking
- about no television set, neither.
- 223
- 00:14:18,560 --> 00:14:20,160
- He got a nice car.
- 224
- 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:23,600
- These New York kids may be
- from the street, but they sure can play.
- 225
- 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,320
- Little guard plays like a giant.
- 226
- 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:27,920
- Forward runs like an antelope.
- Never seen anything like him.
- 227
- 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,640
- - How long till you can have 'em out?
- - A week maybe.
- 228
- 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,400
- How's it with Lattin?
- These boys play big, but they ain't big.
- 229
- 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:34,760
- Hey!
- 230
- 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,320
- You want me to fill this thing up?
- 231
- 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,480
- I called his coach, but he run me off.
- 232
- 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:41,920
- I still got one more roll of these dice,
- though.
- 233
- 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:43,840
- And one more little thing, Don.
- 234
- 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:45,960
- I had a little misunderstanding here.
- 235
- 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,680
- Do you think you could wire me
- another hundred dollars?
- 236
- 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:05,360
- Where on earth's this coach taking us?
- 237
- 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:08,920
- I don't think we're even
- on earth anymore, brah.
- 238
- 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:10,720
- - Say, Willie.
- - Yeah.
- 239
- 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:12,640
- - You got a dime?
- - For what?
- 240
- 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:17,120
- I gotta call my mama.
- Tell her I'm an astronaut.
- 241
- 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,480
- Looks like we're the first black men
- on the moon.
- 242
- 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,480
- What's this dead stuff
- on the side of the road?
- 243
- 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:26,480
- Players from last year's team
- trying to crawl back to New York.
- 244
- 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:28,640
- We driving into hell, plain and simple.
- 245
- 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:32,000
- El Paso, Texas! Ain't no place like it.
- 246
- 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:36,600
- Big ol' west Texas sun shining down
- about 330 days a year.
- 247
- 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:38,600
- Yes, sir, you're in God's country now.
- 248
- 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:42,840
- If this is God's country, obviously
- the good Lord don't want no neighbors.
- 249
- 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,560
- Say, man,
- this place looks like Bonanza.
- 250
- 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:53,000
- Hey, look, just smile at 'em
- and say "howdy."
- 251
- 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:54,280
- Howdy.
- 252
- 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,640
- To him you gotta say "hole-ah."
- Like this, see.
- 253
- 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,000
- Hole-ah!
- 254
- 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:06,040
- - Man, what this "hole-ah" mean?
- - It means, "Hello, Puerto Ricans."
- 255
- 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,840
- You've signed some black players, Don?
- 256
- 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:10,080
- That's right.
- 257
- 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,480
- Seven of them?
- 258
- 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:17,960
- I'm not sure that all the boosters
- are gonna like it. All right?
- 259
- 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,120
- It's a little different
- than what they're used to.
- 260
- 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,920
- You hired me to put a team together -
- that's what I'm doing.
- 261
- 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,520
- No, Don.
- 262
- 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:29,680
- I hired you to ride herd
- on the athletic dorm.
- 263
- 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:32,880
- I've got a little more
- than I bargained for.
- 264
- 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:36,520
- Those our new teammates?
- 265
- 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:38,920
- Ross said things
- were gonna be different.
- 266
- 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,840
- Doesn't look like he was kidding.
- 267
- 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:45,320
- - I ain't never seen one of them before.
- - One what?
- 268
- 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,600
- One of them - a colored.
- 269
- 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:49,520
- You've gotta get off the farm more.
- 270
- 00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:53,200
- I'll have some of that and some of this
- and some of that.
- 271
- 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,880
- - Save a brother some scraps.
- - Back off, midget.
- 272
- 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:58,360
- Who you calling midget?
- You big-toothed clown.
- 273
- 00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:01,240
- Grab your red hat and lantern
- and get back on the front lawn.
- 274
- 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,160
- I'll let you know
- when the full-sized men are done eating.
- 275
- 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:07,760
- Easy, choppers. I seen Pontiacs with
- smaller grilles than those teeth of yours.
- 276
- 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:11,720
- - Taco, nacho, burrito?
- - No. I'm looking for hot dog-o.
- 277
- 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:14,640
- Taco, nacho, burrito?
- 278
- 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,200
- No, no. Hot dog-o.

- Hot dog-o.

- Nacho?
- 281
- 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:38,640
- What are you lookin' at?
- Ain't you never seen a black man before?
- 282
- 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:43,680
- Yeah, I've seen plenty of folks like you.
- 283
- 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:47,480
- So, are you from Harlem?
- 284
- 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,880
- - You think all blacks are from Harlem?
- - Are all of you from Mayberry?
- 285
- 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:54,360
- - Take it easy. He didn't mean nothin'.
- - Mind your business, man.
- 286
- 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:58,960
- Hey, look, guys. My name's Togo Railey.

- Cager! Cager!
- Downtown, Willie, take it downtown!
- 306
- 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:24,280
- Oh!
- 307
- 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:27,640
- - You moved the basket!
- - Advantage black man, for once.
- 308
- 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:29,600
- What? What, farm boy? What?
- 309
- 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,760
- Hold up! Get over here!
- 310
- 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,680
- This is just another example
- that knuckleheads
- 311
- 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:40,040
- come in all sizes, shapes and colors.
- 312
- 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,320
- You're pitiful. Pitiful!
- 313
- 00:19:43,120 --> 00:19:46,640
- Messing around down here
- like a bunch of kindergarten kids.
- 314
- 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:50,360
- Now, you get this place cleaned up
- and try to act like you got some sense.
- 315
- 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,440
- - You think you can do that?
- - Yeah.
- 316
- 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:03,520
- You son of a gun. You got David Lattin
- to come here and play basketball.
- 317
- 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:04,760
- It's David Lattin.
- 318
- 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:09,240
- I used to read about him in the paper.
- 319
- 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,640
- How in the world did you swing that?
- 320
- 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:21,720
- How you doin', brother?
- 321
- 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,800
- Should have left your hand out.
- Might have gave ya a tip.
- 322
- 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,680
- Man, I'll bust that big ox
- upside his head.
- 323
- 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,120
- Worsley.
- You know it'd take three men your size
- 324
- 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,040
- to rip that boy's picture in half.
- 325
- 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:48,560
- My old man wants me working
- on that farm.
- 326
- 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:52,200
- He thinks playing basketball
- is a waste of time.
- 327
- 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:57,000
- I think different.
- 328
- 00:20:57,120 --> 00:20:59,360
- - You the new players?
- - Yeah, that's right.
- 329
- 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,600
- - You don't look like much to me, guys.
- - Whoa, whoa. Easy, bro.
- 330
- 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:05,600
- - You lookin' at the new Mighty Miners.
- - Mighty Miners?
- 331
- 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:09,480
- You're at a hole-digging college.
- A commuter school.
- 332
- 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:14,040
- Playing for a girls' basketball coach.
- The Mighty Miners. Ha-ha!
- 333
- 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,000
- That's funny.
- 334
- 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,560
- What is he talking about,
- girls' basketball coach?
- 335
- 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:25,600
- You're here to learn fundamental,
- disciplined defensive basketball.
- 336
- 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:29,760
- Now, that means discipline
- both on and off the court.
- 337
- 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:31,720
- No girls.
- 338
- 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,160
- No booze. No late nights.
- 339
- 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,440
- Nothing besides fundamental basketball.
- 340
- 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,040
- I speak, you listen.
- 341
- 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,680
- I don't wanna hear "can't" or "won't"
- or "Coach, I'm bleeding."
- 342
- 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:49,720
- I don't wanna hear anything
- except the basketball bounce.
- 343
- 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:55,720
- You play basketball my way.
- My way's hard.
- 344
- 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,920
- Especially if your guard's wearing a skirt.
- 345
- 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:04,040
- What's the matter?
- You got mud on your feet?
- 346
- 00:22:04,120 --> 00:22:08,080
- Move those feet! Get down, get low, son!
- Come on, come on!
- 347
- 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,200
- Now, we do not play defense standing up!
- Get your butt down!
- 348
- 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:14,280
- Lower! Make it uncomfortable!
- There you go.
- 349
- 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,440
- What's the matter, son?
- Your skirt bothering ya?
- 350
- 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:23,120
- Come on, come on, Lattin, go hard!
- Lock him down.
- 351
- 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:24,320
- You in my office!
- 352
- 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,320
- Shed, what was that?
- You let him put his armpits in the rim.
- 353
- 00:22:27,360 --> 00:22:29,000
- Are you kiddin' me?
- 354
- 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:32,840
- We do not back down here, ever!
- 355
- 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:35,360
- You own this part of the court!
- 356
- 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,080
- And, Lattin, I said no dunking.
- 357
- 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,080
- Now, let's do it again, come on.
- 358
- 00:22:41,120 --> 00:22:43,840
- Nice shot, big man.
- 359
- 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:46,360
- Excuse me, Wilt. Big ox.
- 360
- 00:22:46,360 --> 00:22:49,920
- Keep your hand out there a little
- longer. Somebody might give you a tip.
- 361
- 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:54,600
- Shed, what's up? You looking like Lattin's
- shadow out here. Big guy like you scared.
- 362
- 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:57,840
- Not as scared as you when I come after
- you with a fly swatter, ya leprechaun.
- 363
- 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,400
- Don't touch my stuff, brother.
- 364
- 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,080
- Leave that to the big boys.
- 365
- 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:57,320
- Probably ain't even heard of the Panthers
- back in Indiana.
- 366
- 00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,600
- - Man, I know about 'em.
- 367
- 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:03,000
- It's one thing to know about 'em.
- It's another to live the life.
- 368
- 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,920
- Well, I don't need a book
- to live a life.
- 369
- 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,760
- Brothers! Mm.
- We crossin' the bridge tonight.
- 370
- 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:14,040
- I hear Juarez is jumpin'
- with some fine gals.
- 371
- 00:24:14,120 --> 00:24:17,640
- What are you gonna do when you find
- 'em, fool? You don't speak Español.
- 372
- 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:21,240
- - This don't need no translation.
- - Coach Haskins set the rules.
- 373
- 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:25,440
- He has his rules, I got mine. Rule number
- one: Let's get into some trouble.
- 374
- 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:29,000
- - Come on!
- - Willie Worsley needs the ladies.
- 375
- 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:33,720
- - Better be some girls there too, brother.
- - You don't know what to do with 'em.
- 376
- 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,480
- Whoa, whoa, whoa.
- 377
- 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:37,760
- Peace, brother.
- 378
- 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,320
- - You know we got practice in the a.m.
- - Well, good.
- 379
- 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,480
- You stay here
- and you get a good headstart.
- 380
- 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:08,240
- - I'm going back. Somebody come with me.
- - Hey, relax, Shed. Just smile.
- 381
- 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:10,360
- Everybody try to look Mexican.
- 382
- 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,400
- I'm six foot three.
- 383
- 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:16,920
- Try to look like three Mexicans, then.
- How you doin'? All right.
- 384
- 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:28,960
- - Worsley, you next.
- - No, no, no, no.
- 385
- 00:25:29,120 --> 00:25:32,600
- Elijah Muhammad and the Black Muslims
- say that liquor steals a man's mind.
- 386
- 00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:35,640
- Man, Elijah Muhammad never played
- for a crazy white man.
- 387
- 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,360
- Excuse me, señor. Señor?
- 388
- 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,280
- You mind fillin' this shot glass up
- with some cold water?
- 389
- 00:25:41,360 --> 00:25:43,960
- My man Worsley wants to take a swim.
- 390
- 00:25:45,120 --> 00:25:46,680
- Oh! Oh!
- 391
- 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:52,320
- Seriously, I'm not busting
- my butt out there for him anymore.
- 392
- 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,280
- They're using us,
- so I'm gonna use 'em right back.
- 393
- 00:25:55,360 --> 00:25:57,400
- Education is the key, guys.
- 394
- 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,000
- Blah, blah, blah.
- 395
- 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,760
- Hey, hey. Educate this.
- 396
- 00:26:03,360 --> 00:26:05,680
- - Hey, sweet thing.
- - Gracias.
- 397
- 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:07,920
- What's your name?
- 398
- 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,600
- Why do you need to know my name?
- You ain't gonna be usin' it.
- 399
- 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:13,800
- You all business tonight?
- 400
- 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:16,960
- Looks like a cold night
- in Mexico for you, boy.
- 401
- 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:19,760
- Doing OK, Tina?
- 402
- 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:24,280
- Hey, listen.
- I was just playing with you back there.
- 403
- 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,720
- My name is Bobby Joe.
- 404
- 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:29,840
- My friends call me Bobby Joe.
- 405
- 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:33,240
- Tina.
- And I go to the same school you do.
- 406
- 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:37,120
- And I'm not about to fall
- for that smooth-talking Negro routine.
- 407
- 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,520
- - My mama warned me about you.
- - Your mama don't even know me.
- 408
- 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:44,720
- She said watch out for pretty boys
- with big smiles, worn shoes,
- 409
- 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:46,800
- and single dollars in their pockets.
- 410
- 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:51,240
- Well, that's not me.
- I'm telling you, you got me all wrong.
- 411
- 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,000
- Cómo estás. Everybody?
- 412
- 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,760
- What was that, son?
- I didn't get that.
- 413
- 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:21,400
- How is everybody today?
- Feeling all right?
- 414
- 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:23,520
- You OK, Bobby Joe?
- 415
- 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:30,080
- Hey, I hear you speak Spanish, right?
- 416
- 00:27:30,120 --> 00:27:32,920
- - Sir?
- - I'm just wondering.
- 417
- 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:38,400
- You looking a little tired. All that fancy
- footwork of yours tire you out yesterday?
- 418
- 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:40,880
- Or was it something else?
- 419
- 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,960
- Now, because some of you were bitten
- by the evil worm last night,
- 420
- 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:48,000
- this morning, all of you are gonna run.
- 421
- 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:51,560
- - The evil worm never bit me!
- - Hundred lines! Let's do it! Let's sprint!
- 422
- 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,240
- Lattin, get to the baseline, son.
- 423
- 00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:59,200
- Y'all are gonna burn holes
- in your shoes today!
- 424
- 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:04,880
- You look like you're running in mud, son!
- Are you kiddin' me? Are you kiddin' me?
- 425
- 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,600
- Hill, get your butt down.
- 426
- 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:12,600
- There's 31 days before the season starts,
- and you're gonna run every one of 'em.
- 427
- 00:28:13,360 --> 00:28:15,640
- Oh, that was pretty.
- Hey, that was real pretty.
- 428
- 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:19,480
- Everybody see that behind-the-back?
- The circus has come to town.
- 429
- 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:21,920
- - What are you doing?
- - I'm just playing my game.
- 430
- 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,760
- We're playing my game here.
- All that other stuff's just insecurity.
- 431
- 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:33,240
- Great players make simple, basic,
- easy plays. Showboating's just insecurity.
- 432
- 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,800
- He didn't want us playing our game?
- Why'd he bring us here?
- 433
- 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:40,440
- - Man, I'm sick of him riding my butt.
- - I don't need this, man!
- 434
- 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:43,480
- - You know what I'm sayin'?
- - Yes, you do.
- 435
- 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:53,080
- This ain't basketball. You killing us!
- 436
- 00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:57,320
- Well, from where I'm standing,
- you don't got much to bargain with.
- 437
- 00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,240
- What?
- 438
- 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,120
- You wanna quit?
- 439
- 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:05,600
- You wanna quit?
- 440
- 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:10,080
- You quit right now,
- you'll quit every day the rest of your life.
- 441
- 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:19,920
- Watch.
- 442
- 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:47,680
- Don't worry.
- Gunsmoke wasn't that good tonight.
- 443
- 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:49,680
- How was the practice?
- 444
- 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,440
- That good, huh?
- 445
- 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:58,840
- Come on! Move those feet!
- Move the ball, faster! Faster!
- 446
- 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,120
- Get off me, farm boy.
- 447
- 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,080
- - Quit your crying, Harlem.
- - I told you I wasn't from Harlem!
- 448
- 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:08,560
- Knock it off! Knock it...
- 449
- 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:12,280
- Knock it off! Knock it off!
- Knock it off! Knock it off!
- 450
- 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,680
- You'd done that in a game,
- it'd be a technical foul for fighting.
- 451
- 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,760
- Both of you'd be ejected.
- Probably cost us the game, son.
- 452
- 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:22,360
- Baseline, everybody. Y'all gonna run
- 'cause of their selfishness.
- 453
- 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,760
- Two weeks before the game,
- and you still don't listen.
- 454
- 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:28,960
- Class, make sure can you identify
- all the minerals in your boxes.
- 455
- 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:34,280
- I'll be passing around to your stations,
- so if you have any problems, let me know.
- 456
- 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:45,680
- This team does not play playground ball.
- 457
- 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:49,840
- We play fundamental, disciplined
- defensive basketball.
- 458
- 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:52,720
- Togo? Hey, show Mr. Cager
- how to make a shot.
- 459
- 00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,080
- There you go.
- 460
- 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,480
- - You want me to do that?
- - Mm-hm.
- 461
- 00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:07,160
- Come on, Coach. What about my stylin'?
- I got way too much style to do that.
- 462
- 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:12,320
- You leave the styling for the barber shop.
- Just show me you belong in the NCAA.
- 463
- 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:20,920
- OK, guys.
- 464
- 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:31,240
- You're a smart kid, Harry.
- 465
- 00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,800
- But these grades ain't pulling the truck
- up the hill.
- 466
- 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:37,760
- It's just that every class is about rocks,
- and I'm a black man. I don't do rocks.
- 467
- 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:39,080
- Mm-hm.
- 468
- 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:43,200
- You got two weeks to get your grades up.
- Or else.
- 469
- 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,440
- - You hear me?
- - Yes, sir.
- 470
- 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:49,880
- - How'd it go?
- - What's he gonna do?
- 471
- 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,560
- He's already run our asses ragged.
- 472
- 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:56,200
- She's a great girl.
- 473
- 00:31:58,120 --> 00:31:59,880
- Mm! What's that girl?
- 474
- 00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:03,560
- - Is she cute?
- - No.
- 475
- 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:06,520
- - Yeah.
- - She's a cutie pie, but she's not cute.
- 476
- 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:20,080
- Who can tell me the field classification
- of phaneritic rocks?
- 477
- 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,200
- My son Harry can.
- 478
- 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:23,720
- Yes, ma'am.
- 479
- 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:27,640
- - Granite, syenite and gabbro.
- 480
- 00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:29,840
- Can anybody tell me
- how they are formed?
- 481
- 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,800
- Yes, ma'am. Harry can.
- 482
- 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,800
- - By slow cooling plutons?
- - And what is a pluton?
- 483
- 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:39,400
- Harry.
- 484
- 00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:44,800
- It is a deep-seated igneous intrusion
- with no visible floor.
- 485
- 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:46,080
- Very good, Harry.
- 486
- 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,040
- You know I love you, but...
- 487
- 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:54,520
- Nah, I can't. I can't do that. Not again.
- 488
- 00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:58,240
- Please, baby.
- Don't make me do it again. Please.
- 489
- 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:13,960
- Ah!
- 490
- 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:16,520
- Don't ever enter
- when I'm entertaining a lady friend!
- 491
- 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:18,360
- - I didn't know.
- - Check that vent!
- 492
- 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:22,000
- I told you when that vent's open,
- it's too hot for you to come in here.
- 493
- 00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:24,280
- - Hey, man, cool down, man.
- - You dig?
- 494
- 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:26,520
- OK. OK.
- 495
- 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:39,280
- Shed.
- 496
- 00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:41,360
- - Come on, brother.
- - Here we go now.
- 497
- 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:43,400
- Can't be good for his back.
- 498
- 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:45,600
- Shed.
- 499
- 00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:47,920
- Have you even slept
- in your bed yet?
- 500
- 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:51,520
- Hey, it's time for practice.
- You've been sleeping out here all night.
- 501
- 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,080
- Rise and shine. Like you used to it.
- 502
- 00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:59,960
- Here, man. Go buy yourself a hot dog-o.
- 503
- 00:34:11,240 --> 00:34:13,560
- Gimme your base. Balls of your feet.
- 504
- 00:34:13,720 --> 00:34:16,040
- Get your arms up. Get your arms up.
- There you go.
- 505
- 00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:27,880
- I know I told you not to dunk, but if he's
- playing that weak, slam it down his throat.
- 506
- 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:31,760
- You know what, Shed? You're like a duck.
- You wake up in a new world every day.
- 507
- 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,640
- Waitress down at Dairy Queen's
- tougher than you are.
- 508
- 00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:39,280
- All right. Hey, move your feet.
- Come on, get back to the practice.
- 509
- 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:45,720
- - Well, there's seven of them.
- - Actually, there's 12 in all.
- 510
- 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:49,280
- Yeah, but seven of the other ones.
- 511
- 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:01,160
- Coach...
- 512
- 00:35:01,240 --> 00:35:03,600
- You're going home.
- 513
- 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,480
- Home? What are you talking about?
- 514
- 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:09,200
- Too afraid to rebound and defend.
- You're too soft.
- 515
- 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:12,080
- - That's why I'm sending you home.
- - Ah, come on! No!
- 516
- 00:35:12,240 --> 00:35:15,440
- The season's two days away.
- You can't send me home!
- 517
- 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:18,600
- I can't have a big man
- that's afraid to play like one.
- 518
- 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,720
- - No.
- - There's your ticket.
- 519
- 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:25,520
- Coach. Please!
- 520
- 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:29,360
- I'll never be able to look my daddy
- in the eye again! Coach!
- 521
- 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,960
- Look at those moves! Look at how
- he slices the defense! He's unstoppable!
- 522
- 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:52,680
- Look at that jump shot!
- 523
- 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:56,720
- It's all good! Roy, it's all good!
- 524
- 00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:00,200
- The crowd goes wild, Roy.
- 525
- 00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:18,000
- You spilled a lot of sweat on this floor,
- 526
- 00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:20,320
- and it's gonna pay off.
- 527
- 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:23,040
- Now, I know it seems
- I've been hard on you for no reason.
- 528
- 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:27,040
- But I've been tough
- because I know how good you can be.
- 529
- 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:31,280
- People outside this gym, they don't think
- we got a chance this season,
- 530
- 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:34,080
- playing with players
- none of the big schools wanted.
- 531
- 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:37,640
- But those people don't know you. I do.
- 532
- 00:36:37,720 --> 00:36:40,640
- You're talented. You're disciplined.
- 533
- 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:43,160
- And you care about the guy
- standing next to you.
- 534
- 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,840
- That's how we're gonna win,
- starting tomorrow night.
- 535
- 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:49,880
- So let's go out there
- and let's play Texas Western basketball.
- 536
- 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:53,160
- Let's make that mean something.
- 537
- 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,160
- On three.
- 538
- 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:00,480
- One, two, three.
- 539
- 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:02,280
- Miners!
- 540
- 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:04,000
- All right, all right.
- 541
- 00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:07,200
- - Let's go, quick. Come on.
- - Here we go.
- 542
- 00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:11,000
- - What are you still doing here, Shed?
- - I'm... I'm ready to play.
- 543
- 00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:15,160
- Well, you had your chance to be a man.
- Now, go on. Take your ticket and go home.
- 544
- 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,680
- - Come on, man, let me play.
- - I can't. You might get hurt.
- 545
- 00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:21,360
- Let me play!
- 546
- 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:25,000
- Come on, come on, come on!
- I don't care how tired you are.
- 547
- 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:30,440
- That's the way to play.
- 548
- 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:36,040
- Let me look at that. Come here
- and let me look at that! Hold on.
- 549
- 00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:38,080
- - I'm all right.
- - I know you're OK.
- 550
- 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:42,240
- You're walking, but your nose ain't in
- good shape. You're getting blood all over.
- 551
- 00:37:42,240 --> 00:37:46,040
- - I'm all right.
- - Hold your head back. You're bleeding.
- 552
- 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:48,440
- All right, let's play. Come on.
- 553
- 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:55,880
- Quit hopping around like a jack rabbit.
- I said rotate in.
- 554
- 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:01,360
- You a catcher now?
- 555
- 00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:08,800
- - Ain't nothing gonna stop me from playing.
- - He won't go to the doctor, Coach.
- 556
- 00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:12,600
- That's right. I'm not going anywhere.
- I'm here to stay.
- 557
- 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:18,720
- Just go get your nose taken care of.
- We're gonna need ya this season, all right?
- 558
- 00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:20,800
- There you go, Nevil.
- 559
- 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:34,880
- Hi again. Everybody. This is Judd Milton.
- The voice of the Miners on KTSM 1380.
- 560
- 00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:36,680
- Welcome. It's our home opener.
- 561
- 00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:41,120
- And we're hosting the Greyhounds
- of Eastern New Mexico State College.
- 562
- 00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:43,080
- This is a night of questions.
- 563
- 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:47,880
- Will Don Haskins, the little-known coach
- of the Benjamin High School girls' team,
- 564
- 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,120
- be able to lift the Miners
- to respectability?
- 565
- 00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:51,320
- - Let me see.
- - Let go!
- 566
- 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:53,080
- - What?
- - Don't touch it, man.
- 567
- 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:54,760
- Hey, man. Where were you?
- 568
- 00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:58,600
- It was a late night,
- if y'all know what I mean.
- 569
- 00:38:58,720 --> 00:39:00,920
- Are you ever gonna straighten up, man?
- 570
- 00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:03,240
- Somebody say something?
- 571
- 00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:06,640
- And now your Texas Western Miners!
- 572
- 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:18,040
- At guard.
- El Paso's own David Palacio!
- 573
- 00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:22,560
- At forward, from Eagleville, Missouri,
- Jerry Armstrong!
- 574
- 00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:28,320
- At guard. From Detroit. Michigan.
- Bobby Joe Hill!
- 575
- 00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:36,120
- At forward. From Gary. Indiana.
- Harry Flournoy!
- 576
- 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:44,960
- And in center. From Houston. Texas.
- David "Big Daddy D" Lattin!
- 577
- 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:51,360
- Three of 'em, Wallace. They look like
- the damn Tuskegee Institute out there.
- 578
- 00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,240
- Just when did we become
- a colored school?
- 579
- 00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:56,520
- ... your 1965 Texas Western Miners!
- 580
- 00:39:59,920 --> 00:40:01,920
- The Miners win the tip-off
- to start the season.
- 581
- 00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:04,800
- - Go, Hill. Set it up. Take your time.
- - Set it up!
- 582
- 00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:11,240
- Hey, protect the ball.
- 583
- 00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:13,840
- Not a good start for the Miners.
- 584
- 00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:17,440
- Hey, Hill, you notice your man
- just scored on you?
- 585
- 00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:19,200
- Mitch, over here, over here!
- 586
- 00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:22,280
- - Hill spins to the basket. Puts it up for two!
- - Stop showboating!
- 587
- 00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:26,040
- Fundamental basketball, Hill.
- Watch your base.
- 588
- 00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:28,880
- You didn't have a base -
- that's how he went around you.
- 589
- 00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:34,120
- Coach Haskins trying to mold these guys
- into team players... Cager for two.
- 590
- 00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:36,760
- Cager, just lay the ball off the board.
- 591
- 00:40:39,720 --> 00:40:42,960
- Get your hand in his face, son!
- You gotta challenge that shot.
- 592
- 00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:45,440
- Right here, over here. Shoot it.
- 593
- 00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:48,080
- Where's the D? There ain't no D.
- 594
- 00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:51,360
- Hill wheelin' and dealin'.
- The ball's loose!
- 595
- 00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:54,080
- - That's why I don't want you showboating.
- - Let's go!
- 596
- 00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:56,960
- Hey, Armstrong. Hey, Flournoy.
- Are you kiddin' me?
- 597
- 00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:00,120
- Lattin, you're ankle-deep in the floor, son.
- 598
- 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,560
- Drive that ball! There it is!
- 599
- 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:07,520
- Hey, I saw it, son.
- 600
- 00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:09,800
- And the Miners lead by four.
- 601
- 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:12,040
- They need one stop now.
- 602
- 00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:14,840
- Good defense, Armstrong!
- Good defense!
- 603
- 00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:19,040
- So the Don Haskins era begins
- in victory. A four-point win
- 604
- 00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:22,080
- over a less-than-impressive squad
- from Eastern New Mexico.
- 605
- 00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:23,800
- But the real story tonight -
- 606
- 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:27,640
- Coach Haskins putting three Negro
- players into the starting lineup -
- 607
- 00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:31,880
- a move that's sure to stir things up
- both on and off the court this season.
- 608
- 00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:58,560
- - You've got all the moves, don't you?
- - Oh, yeah.
- 609
- 00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:00,840
- Tried it on a hundred girls?
- 610
- 00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:02,120
- Ah...
- 611
- 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:04,600
- Maybe 50 or 60.
- 612
- 00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:12,280
- I'm tired of moving around.
- I just wanna stay in one place for a while.
- 613
- 00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:17,120
- Put down some roots for once.
- You got what it takes, Bobby Joe?
- 614
- 00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:41,480
- - Hey, Coach, I can't go no more!
- - I think you can go some more.
- 615
- 00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:45,120
- You got energy for all kind of nonsense
- instead of putting it in your team!
- 616
- 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:48,200
- Instead of demonstrating some respect
- and being a leader!
- 617
- 00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:50,120
- I ain't got no team!
- 618
- 00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:53,400
- We ain't going nowhere! You telling us
- all the time how bad we are!
- 619
- 00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:57,440
- We know we ain't gonna win!
- What do I got to respect?
- 620
- 00:43:05,240 --> 00:43:08,720
- My old man drove a truck
- for the better half of his life.
- 621
- 00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:12,960
- Now, there ain't nothing wrong with that...
- other than the fact he hated it.
- 622
- 00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:15,600
- That's the only way he knew
- how to put food on the table
- 623
- 00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:19,800
- and give his kids a chance
- to do something they loved.
- 624
- 00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:23,400
- I love this game. I love this game.
- 625
- 00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:26,400
- I never was the greatest player.
- 626
- 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:30,720
- But I busted my butt,
- and I outworked better players.
- 627
- 00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:35,160
- I ain't the smartest coach, but I bust
- my butt and I outwork smarter coaches.
- 628
- 00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:40,920
- And when I see the talent you got
- and I see you wasting it, ticks me off.
- 629
- 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:46,080
- Now, if you couldn't get in the gym,
- if you didn't have the opportunity,
- 630
- 00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:48,240
- there'd be nothing for us to talk about,
- 631
- 00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:52,280
- but, son, I've been there.
- Times are different. You're in the gym.
- 632
- 00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:56,520
- And if you're in the gym, you step out on
- that floor, you better respect my father, me,
- 633
- 00:43:56,640 --> 00:44:00,920
- and you better respect yourself
- and play some basketball.
- 634
- 00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:05,880
- Midway through the first half.
- Iowa playing well.
- 635
- 00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:11,040
- Of course. That's to be expected. They're
- undefeated. Number four in the country.
- 636
- 00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:17,680
- Iowa. Always a contender in the Big Ten.
- And there's a bucket for the Hawkeyes.
- 637
- 00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:21,800
- Coach Haskins is not happy.
- It's an eight-point game right now.
- 638
- 00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:25,280
- Hey! Tighten up out there!
- 639
- 00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:29,280
- Stay on him! Stay on him!
- 640
- 00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:31,800
- Shed, box out! Shed!
- 641
- 00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:38,080
- - Count the bucket.
- - Shed, would you box out?
- 642
- 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:41,720
- That's it! We got 'em now.
- 643
- 00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:45,800
- Texas Western struggling to score
- against this tough Hawkeyes' defense.
- 644
- 00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:48,080
- And there's a great block
- just before the half.
- 645
- 00:44:49,240 --> 00:44:53,800
- I've seen a lot of rough halves in
- basketball. But the Miners are struggling.
- 646
- 00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:57,520
- They'll go to the locker room
- down by 16 points.
- 647
- 00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:01,840
- Say it, Hill.
- Come on, Hill, say it.
- 648
- 00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:06,400
- We can't play like this!
- They're better than us at your game.
- 649
- 00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:08,840
- You need to let us loose!
- 650
- 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:11,520
- Just stick to the plan, Bobby Joe.
- 651
- 00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:14,680
- You want fundamental basketball, right?
- 652
- 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:22,440
- Iowa is just flat outplaying Texas
- Western. It's been a difficult game so far.
- 653
- 00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:25,200
- Ain't our night, Coach.
- 654
- 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:27,960
- Hey, Hill. Time-out.
- Time, time, time!
- 655
- 00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:29,880
- Time-out, white.
- 656
- 00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:33,680
- Coach...
- 657
- 00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:38,080
- if you let us play our game.
- 658
- 00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:47,400
- All right, Hill, you play your game.
- And you play my game.
- 659
- 00:45:49,240 --> 00:45:51,760
- - You ready to play?
- - Yeah, let's do it.
- 660
- 00:45:59,960 --> 00:46:03,240
- And the Miners have a couple of baskets
- back to back.
- 661
- 00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:08,640
- Still. Though. A huge deficit.
- 662
- 00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:13,560
- Orsten Artis with a steal. Bounce pass to
- Bobby Joe Hill. He drives it in for two!
- 663
- 00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:17,840
- Well. The Miners have really turned it up
- a notch defensively.
- 664
- 00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:23,760
- Now it looks like Iowa is the team
- that's struggling.
- 665
- 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:27,040
- This full-court pressure by the Miners
- has the Hawkeyes rattled.
- 666
- 00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:29,320
- Go to the basket! Go!
- 667
- 00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:50,240
- The comeback is on. 59-48.
- Iowa still with the lead.
- 668
- 00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:52,200
- Come on, son.
- 669
- 00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:53,520
- Bring us home.
- 670
- 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:01,400
- Defense! Defense!
- 671
- 00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:13,440
- There it is.
- 672
- 00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:18,600
- Yeah!
- 673
- 00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:24,400
- Down 16 at the half. Texas Western
- has clawed their way back into this game!
- 674
- 00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:31,880
- Miners trail by one with 15 seconds left
- in the game. They have a shot to win this.
- 675
- 00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:34,560
- Hill! Hill! Nine, nine!
- 676
- 00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:36,400
- Spread their D! Their D!
- 677
- 00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:39,920
- Hill goes down the middle.
- Looks right. Nothing there.
- 678
- 00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:41,920
- Looks left.
- He's gonna try it himself!
- 679
- 00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:44,960
- He is swarmed by Hawkeyes.
- Splits the defense. Puts it up!
- 680
- 00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:47,520
- And it's good! Miners win!
- 681
- 00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:51,440
- Miners win! I'm seeing it with
- my own eyes and I still don't believe it!
- 682
- 00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:54,760
- The Miners take down
- perennial powerhouse Iowa.
- 683
- 00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:58,880
- Number four in the nation and the first
- top-ranked team we have faced all year!
- 684
- 00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:01,160
- These Miners are for real!
- 685
- 00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:06,920
- You were playing tonight,
- not acting like a chump.
- 686
- 00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:09,400
- I'm never a chump.
- I was always a player.
- 687
- 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:11,400
- My man.
- 688
- 00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:13,840
- Douse the fire and call in the dogs!
- 689
- 00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:17,560
- Whoever heard of Texas Western?
- Well, the Hawkeyes have.
- 690
- 00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:37,480
- - Y'all going to church?
- - Shh!
- 691
- 00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:39,720
- Shut up.
- 692
- 00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:47,040
- Why we got these honkies with us?
- 693
- 00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:49,680
- Yeah, what are you honkies doing here?
- 694
- 00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:51,840
- Hey, man.
- We got more in the car behind us too.
- 695
- 00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:54,200
- - What are you doin' up front?
- - Calm down.
- 696
- 00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:55,480
- Hey! Don't...
- 697
- 00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:07,400
- Big Daddy's home, baby.
- 698
- 00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:09,080
- Hi.
- 699
- 00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:35,800
- Baudoin! Man, you something else!
- 700
- 00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:40,400
- I didn't think a white boy would eat chitlins!
- Pig intestines.
- 701
- 00:49:46,720 --> 00:49:50,320
- - What's your friend's name?
- - Uh...
- 702
- 00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:53,000
- - That's Big Daddy.
- - Hm.
- 703
- 00:49:55,120 --> 00:49:56,520
- I'm-I'm Little Daddy.
- 704
- 00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:12,840
- So I was wondering... Do you guys wanna
- be called colored or black?
- 705
- 00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:17,360
- - Do we look like a load of laundry to you?
- - Jerry, look.
- 706
- 00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:20,040
- Jerry, we black. OK?
- 707
- 00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:22,720
- - Black?
- - Yes. We black.
- 708
- 00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:28,120
- - I thought you were called the other one.
- - No, man. Black is bad, man. Bad.
- 709
- 00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:29,800
- That's what I mean, black is bad.
- 710
- 00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:31,640
- - Can I preach to him?
- - Preach on.
- 711
- 00:50:31,720 --> 00:50:35,760
- - No, Mayberry Jerry. "Bad" means good.
- - OK, now.
- 712
- 00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:39,640
- - No, no, no. "Bad" means bad. I know that.
- - No, no. Listen.
- 713
- 00:50:39,640 --> 00:50:43,480
- With Ellie Mae, Uncle Jed and Granny
- out on the farm, "bad" might be bad.
- 714
- 00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:47,080
- - Well...
- - But with us, "bad" is good. You dig?
- 715
- 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:49,320
- - Say it, rev.
- - Come on.
- 716
- 00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:53,320
- - OK, "bad" is good.
- - Talk to me, baby! You're with me now.
- 717
- 00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:55,000
- OK.
- 718
- 00:50:55,040 --> 00:50:58,080
- - So then what does "good" mean?
- 719
- 00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:33,520
- People put me down
- 'cause that's the side of town I was born in
- 720
- 00:51:33,560 --> 00:51:36,200
- - Is that Billy Joe Royal?
- - Yeah.
- 721
- 00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:39,520
- His white ass wouldn't know the poor side
- of town if I dropped him off in it.
- 722
- 00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:40,680
- Ah!
- 723
- 00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:43,360
- - What you got?
- - Wait, wait. Check this out.
- 724
- 00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:44,440
- Y'all know this song?
- 725
- 00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:49,040
- Aw, man! Turn that down!
- 726
- 00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:50,440
- Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
- 727
- 00:51:51,880 --> 00:51:55,000
- Now we're gettin' our groove on, baby.
- 728
- 00:51:55,800 --> 00:51:56,760
- Hey, hey.
- 729
- 00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:58,880
- You cats need to get with this.
- 730
- 00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:10,040
- - New Orleans!
- - New Orleans!
- 731
- 00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:15,360
- Whoo!
- 732
- 00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:37,560
- For 12 years,
- I've been a good friend to this school.
- 733
- 00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:42,240
- I support basketball, football,
- put up the money for the stadium.
- 734
- 00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:45,840
- Always had Texas Western in my heart.
- 735
- 00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:48,320
- We could never have done any of it
- without you.
- 736
- 00:52:48,360 --> 00:52:52,520
- But I got a little problem with Haskins
- and all the colored boys he's playing.
- 737
- 00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:55,480
- Now, he doesn't need 'em to win, does he?
- 738
- 00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:57,760
- Well, we're undefeated.
- 739
- 00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:03,680
- Whoo, man.
- 740
- 00:53:03,720 --> 00:53:05,960
- - It's blazin' out there.
- - I'm starving.
- 741
- 00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:15,960
- Hey, man. I gotta hit the john.
- Order me some huevos rancheros.
- 742
- 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:19,440
- Man, will you save that for El Paso?
- I'm ordering us some pancakes.
- 743
- 00:53:19,600 --> 00:53:22,160
- Whatever you get, get me something
- with salsa on it, OK?
- 744
- 00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:25,000
- - I already know what I'm gonna order.
- - Hey, y'all, pass the menus.
- 745
- 00:53:26,320 --> 00:53:31,000
- Hey. Great game last night.
- Never seen anybody play like that.
- 746
- 00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:32,920
- Oh, good morning.
- 747
- 00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:36,520
- I need eggs. I need some sausage.
- Sausage.
- 748
- 00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:37,840
- Unh!
- 749
- 00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:41,680
- - It must be a New York thing.
- - That's cool.
- 750
- 00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:43,200
- Unh!
- 751
- 00:53:43,320 --> 00:53:45,080
- Are you guys ordering pancakes?
- 752
- 00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:47,960
- Don't get your black stink on me, boy.
- 753
- 00:53:53,680 --> 00:53:56,640
- - Hold on!
- - Give it a good scrub, huh?
- 754
- 00:53:56,760 --> 00:53:59,920
- Have a merry Christmas, though.
- And have a good day. All right?
- 755
- 00:54:06,880 --> 00:54:10,280
- Hey, man, you see them eggs up there?
- Man, them a little plastic.
- 756
- 00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:13,560
- - I don't know, man.
- - Man, you can't see it.
- 757
- 00:54:22,720 --> 00:54:24,560
- Shed!
- 758
- 00:54:24,640 --> 00:54:27,680
- Shed, what happened?
- Something's wrong.
- 759
- 00:54:27,720 --> 00:54:30,760
- What happened, son?
- Shed, what happened?
- 760
- 00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:35,160
- - Help me out here.
- - What's going on? You all right?
- 761
- 00:54:35,240 --> 00:54:36,680
- - Help him.
- - Who did this?
- 762
- 00:54:47,680 --> 00:54:49,560
- Anybody see 'em?
- 763
- 00:54:49,600 --> 00:54:53,760
- Son, get on this bus. Let's go.
- Look at me. Look at me. Get on the bus.
- 764
- 00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:55,720
- - Baudoin.
- - Who did this?
- 765
- 00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:58,960
- - We ain't going nowhere!
- - Get on the bus! Everyone get on there!
- 766
- 00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:01,280
- - That everyone?
- - Move.
- 767
- 00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:08,480
- - I could kill a honky tonight.
- - Ain't nobody killing nobody.
- 768
- 00:55:08,560 --> 00:55:10,240
- I'm gonna start carrying a knife.
- 769
- 00:55:10,240 --> 00:55:12,520
- You show a blade,
- they gonna pull a shotgun.
- 770
- 00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:14,880
- What are we supposed to do?
- Just take it?
- 771
- 00:55:14,960 --> 00:55:18,320
- Look, we can't all live the Dr. King rule.
- What you want us to do?
- 772
- 00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:22,000
- - Get slapped, turn the other cheek?
- - Hell, no. I'm saying we think.
- 773
- 00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:25,040
- When we go to the South,
- we gotta go in twos.
- 774
- 00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:30,840
- We're always on the lookout for each other.
- Don't turn your back on them crackers.
- 775
- 00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:36,600
- Shed, you ain't gotta be embarrassed.
- Could have happened to any one of us.
- 776
- 00:55:36,720 --> 00:55:41,440
- I tell you right now, they won't catch us
- alone no more. I promise you that.
- 777
- 00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:44,640
- They come after one of us,
- they gonna have to fight all of us.
- 778
- 00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:00,400
- Mary?
- 779
- 00:56:00,520 --> 00:56:05,320
- You're really late, Don.
- Don't come home late without calling.
- 780
- 00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:07,880
- You know, things happen to people...
- 781
- 00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:11,080
- - Lemme get your plate and I'll heat it up.
- - Honey, what is it?
- 782
- 00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:14,920
- - Lemme get it. It'll only take a minute.
- - Mary, just talk to me. What is it?
- 783
- 00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:17,400
- Hey, what is this?
- 784
- 00:56:17,480 --> 00:56:19,560
- Honey, what is this?
- 785
- 00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:33,160
- - This the first?
- - No, I...
- 786
- 00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:35,720
- I throw them away
- as soon as I get them.
- 787
- 00:56:35,880 --> 00:56:40,080
- - Why didn't you say something to me?
- - I don't know. I just...
- 788
- 00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:49,320
- My family's most important. How can I
- protect you if I don't know what's going on?
- 789
- 00:56:50,240 --> 00:56:51,640
- Don.
- 790
- 00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:55,760
- Basketball's been our whole life.
- But it's just a game.
- 791
- 00:56:57,480 --> 00:56:59,880
- I don't know if it's worth this.
- 792
- 00:57:05,320 --> 00:57:07,480
- No, neither do I.
- 793
- 00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:14,760
- This is more than just a game now.
- And I sure as hell can't quit on it.
- 794
- 00:57:45,720 --> 00:57:48,680
- Nothing ever
- bothered me before.
- 795
- 00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:52,400
- It's like things,
- they rolled right off my back.
- 796
- 00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:54,680
- I just didn't care.
- 797
- 00:57:56,760 --> 00:58:00,080
- Now I care.
- That scares the heck outta me.
- 798
- 00:58:00,120 --> 00:58:03,120
- I don't wanna want something
- I can lose.
- 799
- 00:58:04,400 --> 00:58:06,760
- Baby.
- 800
- 00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:09,680
- There's nothing you can't lose.
- 801
- 00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:15,000
- But no one can ever take your desire
- away from you. No one.
- 802
- 00:58:15,160 --> 00:58:16,560
- Ever.
- 803
- 00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:23,000
- You know, Scoops, man, sometimes I don't
- even feel like going back out there again.
- 804
- 00:58:23,040 --> 00:58:26,680
- Look. You can't let them take basketball
- away from you, man.
- 805
- 00:58:26,760 --> 00:58:28,760
- You can't let them win.
- 806
- 00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:33,400
- I just don't know how much more of this
- I can handle, man. I ain't like you, all brave.
- 807
- 00:58:33,400 --> 00:58:37,600
- Sweet Pea, as long as I known you,
- you been stronger than you think.
- 808
- 00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:45,120
- Hey, you OK, Scoops?
- 809
- 00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:46,960
- Yeah, I'm fine, man.
- 810
- 00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:52,160
- Hey, man. Hey, tell me
- what's goin' on, man. You OK?
- 811
- 00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:55,320
- - Be ready, please. Thank you.
- 812
- 00:59:07,160 --> 00:59:09,080
- Scoops, you got a minute?
- 813
- 00:59:09,120 --> 00:59:13,840
- Says you got something called
- hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
- 814
- 00:59:13,880 --> 00:59:16,200
- My heart's too big.
- 815
- 00:59:16,200 --> 00:59:18,280
- Ain't that something?
- 816
- 00:59:19,600 --> 00:59:22,360
- How long you known, Scoops?
- 817
- 00:59:22,400 --> 00:59:25,160
- Well, I...
- 818
- 00:59:25,240 --> 00:59:29,120
- I started fainting
- when I was in high school, Coach.
- 819
- 00:59:29,160 --> 00:59:31,520
- So my mom being who she is,
- she took me to the doctor.
- 820
- 00:59:31,600 --> 00:59:34,400
- They ran a few tests. That's how
- I found out. But it doesn't matter.
- 821
- 00:59:34,480 --> 00:59:37,720
- You're a fool. You're a dang fool.
- You could have died out there.
- 822
- 00:59:37,840 --> 00:59:40,120
- Coach, I'll die if I don't play.
- 823
- 00:59:41,280 --> 00:59:45,360
- Look, Coach. My whole life
- I only loved playing basketball.
- 824
- 00:59:45,520 --> 00:59:48,640
- That's it. But you see,
- I could never play in high school,
- 825
- 00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:52,600
- because I had to work
- to support my mom and my sisters.
- 826
- 00:59:54,600 --> 01:00:00,280
- But I never stopped playing in the street.
- Never. 'Cause to not play, Coach, man...
- 827
- 01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:04,640
- Man. That was like letting something
- just crawl up and die in me.
- 828
- 01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:07,160
- Far as this heart thing goes,
- I can still play.
- 829
- 01:00:07,240 --> 01:00:11,440
- My heart's good. This heart thing
- ain't nothing. I lived with it this long.
- 830
- 01:00:11,440 --> 01:00:13,600
- - That's why you gotta play me.
- - I can't do it.
- 831
- 01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:15,280
- - The doctor said I could.
- - I can't.
- 832
- 01:00:15,400 --> 01:00:18,720
- He said I could play a few minutes here
- and there. Why you won't let me?
- 833
- 01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:21,240
- I know what the doctor said, Willie.
- 834
- 01:00:21,240 --> 01:00:25,880
- But I can't take a chance with your life.
- I can't do that.
- 835
- 01:00:26,000 --> 01:00:28,440
- Now, you're still on the team.
- 836
- 01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:31,120
- We're gonna need you, Cager.
- 837
- 01:00:31,120 --> 01:00:33,520
- We're gonna need your courage.
- 838
- 01:00:36,960 --> 01:00:40,000
- We're gonna need that big heart of yours,
- all right?
- 839
- 01:01:26,200 --> 01:01:30,760
- - You got basketball on your mind, Hill?
- - Yeah, Coach. Nothing but.
- 840
- 01:01:33,440 --> 01:01:36,920
- Coach Haskins. Matt Pavelar,
- Dallas Morning News.
- 841
- 01:01:36,960 --> 01:01:38,560
- You're playing a lot of coloreds.
- 842
- 01:01:38,680 --> 01:01:42,520
- Are you concerned as to whether
- the Negro player can handle the pressure
- 843
- 01:01:42,600 --> 01:01:45,400
- at the national level?
- 844
- 01:01:45,400 --> 01:01:47,760
- My team plays defense, rebounds.
- 845
- 01:01:47,760 --> 01:01:51,920
- - What statement are you making?
- - I'm a coach. I don't make statements.
- 846
- 01:01:51,920 --> 01:01:55,240
- - Kentucky's here.
- - Thank you, Coach.
- 847
- 01:01:55,960 --> 01:01:57,520
- Coach Rupp. Coach Rupp.
- 848
- 01:01:57,640 --> 01:01:59,560
- Coach Rupp. Coach Rupp!
- 849
- 01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:05,600
- Coach Rupp, great game. Take us to the
- last 20 seconds. What'd you tell the boys?
- 850
- 01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:08,040
- I knew it was 20 seconds.
- I gave them a good play.
- 851
- 01:02:08,160 --> 01:02:13,200
- Something in our playbook we used for
- years. The boys performed it to perfection.
- 852
- 01:02:13,200 --> 01:02:14,920
- I'm gonna introduce myself.
- 853
- 01:02:14,960 --> 01:02:17,240
- ...and I know you're gonna let me go.
- 854
- 01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:18,960
- - Figures.
- - Thank you, Coach.
- 855
- 01:02:19,560 --> 01:02:21,840
- - Coach.
- - No more interviews. Thank you.
- 856
- 01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:25,320
- Don Haskins.
- I'm the coach over at Texas Western.
- 857
- 01:02:26,880 --> 01:02:28,880
- Just wanted to introduce myself.
- 858
- 01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:32,240
- Congratulate you
- on another great year and...
- 859
- 01:02:32,360 --> 01:02:34,760
- - These your boys?
- - Yes, sir.
- 860
- 01:02:34,880 --> 01:02:37,080
- Yes, sir, my players.
- 861
- 01:02:39,080 --> 01:02:42,840
- Well, you had a fine season.
- See you down the road.
- 862
- 01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:55,200
- - Losers!
- - We don't want your kind!
- 863
- 01:02:55,240 --> 01:02:58,280
- Ignore all this trash!
- Just get out on the court.
- 864
- 01:02:58,320 --> 01:03:00,240
- Don't you come in here!
- 865
- 01:03:00,360 --> 01:03:03,160
- Look at all
- these stupid kids!
- 866
- 01:03:04,880 --> 01:03:07,280
- Let go of me, boy!
- 867
- 01:03:07,360 --> 01:03:10,160
- Don't listen to 'em.
- Come on, focus.
- 868
- 01:03:10,240 --> 01:03:13,320
- - That's easy for you say.
- - Don't listen to 'em.
- 869
- 01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:17,800
- In spite of a hostile crowd.
- The Miners have played well tonight
- 870
- 01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:19,640
- as they look to close out East Texas.
- 871
- 01:03:19,720 --> 01:03:23,840
- And there's a block. And a fast break
- opportunity for the Lions.
- 872
- 01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:26,320
- And Jason Stevens puts it up for two.
- 873
- 01:03:26,360 --> 01:03:30,560
- Could have been in a Miners' uniform
- if Coach had been able to recruit him.
- 874
- 01:03:30,720 --> 01:03:33,640
- I see Coach must be clearing the bench,
- huh?
- 875
- 01:03:34,280 --> 01:03:39,200
- And Stevens. With the hot hand here in the
- second half. Being guarded by Baudoin.
- 876
- 01:03:43,800 --> 01:03:45,440
- Coach sends his best.
- 877
- 01:03:45,480 --> 01:03:50,680
- This has been a hard-fought game
- on both sides. Miners lead by five.
- 878
- 01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:53,520
- Takes it in to Big Daddy.
- Who's pushed to the floor!
- 879
- 01:03:53,520 --> 01:03:55,320
- - Are you kiddin' me?
- - It is getting rough.
- 880
- 01:03:55,440 --> 01:03:59,040
- Let's see who the foul's on.
- They call it on Lattin! I can't believe this!
- 881
- 01:03:59,080 --> 01:04:01,160
- Lattin's gotta watch his temper here.
- 882
- 01:04:01,200 --> 01:04:04,440
- He's already fouled
- out of ten games this year.
- 883
- 01:04:04,520 --> 01:04:06,800
- Technical foul.
- 884
- 01:04:06,800 --> 01:04:09,880
- Just sit down. You never let your anger
- get the better of you.
- 885
- 01:04:09,960 --> 01:04:11,360
- - He stuck his knee out!
- - I know.
- 886
- 01:04:11,400 --> 01:04:15,760
- - Lattin's temper is gonna cost the Miners.
- - You gotta hold yourself together.
- 887
- 01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:18,920
- - He's sticking his knee out!
- - You hold yourself together.
- 888
- 01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:23,320
- Keep that anger inside you and I'll let you
- know when you can let it go, understand?
- 889
- 01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:27,720
- At the beginning of the season.
- No one could have imagined
- 890
- 01:04:27,760 --> 01:04:29,840
- that we would wind up
- where we are now:
- 891
- 01:04:30,000 --> 01:04:32,120
- Number four in the nation.
- 892
- 01:04:32,240 --> 01:04:35,720
- Close on the heels of powerhouses
- like Kentucky and Kansas.
- 893
- 01:04:35,720 --> 01:04:39,040
- Now. With two weeks to go
- before the NCAA tournament starts.
- 894
- 01:04:39,040 --> 01:04:41,120
- We're not a secret anymore.
- 895
- 01:04:48,800 --> 01:04:50,680
- Been this cold before.
- 896
- 01:04:59,120 --> 01:05:00,920
- Man!
- 897
- 01:05:01,040 --> 01:05:02,960
- Ross, Coach, hurry!
- 898
- 01:05:14,600 --> 01:05:17,960
- - Oh, man.
- - Moe, get us checked out.
- 899
- 01:05:19,680 --> 01:05:23,440
- Listen, we're gonna get on the bus
- and go to Seattle tonight, all right?
- 900
- 01:05:23,480 --> 01:05:26,520
- Get your stuff, pack up
- and let's get on the bus.
- 901
- 01:05:31,400 --> 01:05:33,280
- Hey, man.
- 902
- 01:05:33,320 --> 01:05:35,600
- You ever get scared?
- 903
- 01:05:40,200 --> 01:05:42,480
- When I was a kid in Houston...
- 904
- 01:05:43,400 --> 01:05:48,640
- a white gang strung me on a fire escape
- till I peed my pants.
- 905
- 01:05:50,520 --> 01:05:52,720
- I came back down and...
- 906
- 01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:56,840
- took nothing from nobody ever again.
- 907
- 01:05:57,880 --> 01:06:02,120
- Took it to every honky on the block...
- 908
- 01:06:02,240 --> 01:06:05,520
- till they left Big Daddy D alone.
- 909
- 01:06:08,920 --> 01:06:12,240
- But this is different.
- 910
- 01:06:14,280 --> 01:06:16,080
- This is worse.
- 911
- 01:06:20,440 --> 01:06:22,720
- This is the whole world.
- 912
- 01:06:23,560 --> 01:06:28,720
- - Everything all right, Coach?
- - Oh, what'd I get these guys into, Ross?
- 913
- 01:06:31,800 --> 01:06:34,640
- You did the right thing.
- 914
- 01:06:34,640 --> 01:06:39,000
- You think about what these boys had
- to overcome just to get here.
- 915
- 01:06:39,080 --> 01:06:45,160
- You think about how they've been
- degraded and humiliated,
- 916
- 01:06:45,160 --> 01:06:49,280
- just 'cause they black,
- by all these "civilized" folks.
- 917
- 01:06:50,880 --> 01:06:53,880
- - Shame on us.
- 918
- 01:06:55,000 --> 01:06:59,200
- WTSM. 1380 broadcasting live
- from Seattle. Washington.
- 919
- 01:06:59,280 --> 01:07:03,960
- Hi, Miners fans. Thanks for joining us
- at a packed house in the Pacific Northwest.
- 920
- 01:07:03,960 --> 01:07:08,400
- The question: Will the Miners. In the last
- regular season game here in Seattle.
- 921
- 01:07:08,440 --> 01:07:12,000
- Take the number-one spot
- in the NC 2A polls?
- 922
- 01:07:12,040 --> 01:07:17,560
- Adolph Rupp's fabled Wildcats dropped
- a nail-biter to Tennessee last night.
- 923
- 01:07:17,640 --> 01:07:20,920
- And that will allow the Miners.
- If they win here tonight.
- 924
- 01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:23,720
- To take the number-one spot
- in the nation.
- 925
- 01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:29,600
- Hey, Lattin, you didn't jump high enough
- to get toilet paper under your shoe.
- 926
- 01:07:30,880 --> 01:07:33,040
- The Chieftains go down
- for an easy lay-up.
- 927
- 01:07:33,120 --> 01:07:36,880
- Miners making it a little too easy
- for the Chieftains at this point.
- 928
- 01:07:36,960 --> 01:07:38,760
- Armstrong down low.
- 929
- 01:07:38,880 --> 01:07:44,120
- Armstrong's wide open. Flournoy looks
- down there. Will not pass the ball.
- 930
- 01:07:44,240 --> 01:07:47,000
- He wants to go it alone.
- Launches a 20-footer. It's off the mark.
- 931
- 01:07:47,120 --> 01:07:49,120
- Come on, man, I was wide open.
- 932
- 01:07:55,960 --> 01:07:57,400
- Hill, we're in orange tonight.
- 933
- 01:07:57,480 --> 01:08:00,760
- - Come on, Shed, meet the pass.
- - Don't worry about me.
- 934
- 01:08:07,280 --> 01:08:09,000
- The Miners are just playing flat.
- 935
- 01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:11,120
- Your guy just got by you, Hill.
- 936
- 01:08:11,120 --> 01:08:14,840
- There's no chemistry. No energy.
- It's every man for themselves out there.
- 937
- 01:08:14,960 --> 01:08:18,680
- They're not playing like a team.
- That jump was no good.
- 938
- 01:08:23,400 --> 01:08:27,360
- - Coach, you're in my chair.
- - I like the view better down here.
- 939
- 01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:31,200
- Eight minutes to play.
- And I hate to say this.
- 940
- 01:08:31,240 --> 01:08:34,160
- But it looks like
- our Miners have given up.
- 941
- 01:08:46,040 --> 01:08:47,960
- They've got only themselves
- to blame.
- 942
- 01:08:48,080 --> 01:08:50,440
- They didn't play together
- or find the open man.
- 943
- 01:08:50,440 --> 01:08:54,440
- And the Miners' perfect season
- is slipping away.
- 944
- 01:09:14,400 --> 01:09:15,600
- Ohh!
- 945
- 01:09:27,520 --> 01:09:29,840
- You stunk out there tonight!
- 946
- 01:09:29,960 --> 01:09:33,280
- Squeaky could have played better D
- than you did.
- 947
- 01:09:33,280 --> 01:09:35,960
- And, Shed, are you kiddin' me?
- 948
- 01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:39,960
- That was the same ol' weak,
- scared Shed out there.
- 949
- 01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:44,920
- Maybe you thought what used to be
- an undefeated record meant something.
- 950
- 01:09:45,000 --> 01:09:47,560
- That we could just waltz
- our way in the tournament.
- 951
- 01:09:47,600 --> 01:09:51,480
- - Maybe these crackers is getting to us.
- - Why you looking at me, Bobby Joe?
- 952
- 01:09:51,640 --> 01:09:54,280
- You a cracker, ain't you?
- 953
- 01:09:54,360 --> 01:09:57,520
- Coach, the more we win,
- the harder it is for us out there.
- 954
- 01:09:57,600 --> 01:10:00,880
- What do you suggest we do, Shed?
- Lose?
- 955
- 01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:02,760
- Give them what they want?
- 956
- 01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:06,720
- You think basketball is everything, Coach.
- And that's easy for you to say.
- 957
- 01:10:06,720 --> 01:10:09,440
- But you don't have rednecks
- in your face all the time.
- 958
- 01:10:09,480 --> 01:10:14,480
- None of you white boys get it because you
- don't have people breaking into your room
- 959
- 01:10:14,520 --> 01:10:16,080
- or shoving your head in toilets.
- 960
- 01:10:16,200 --> 01:10:17,520
- It's not us.
- 961
- 01:10:17,560 --> 01:10:20,400
- White is white, Green Acres,
- and that means you too.
- 962
- 01:10:20,400 --> 01:10:24,440
- Yeah, I'm white. And you've never been
- able to see past that! We're not like them!
- 963
- 01:10:24,560 --> 01:10:27,440
- Think we haven't had heat
- come down on us?
- 964
- 01:10:27,480 --> 01:10:31,080
- You're the ones out there skating by,
- while we're out there sweating blood.
- 965
- 01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:36,200
- You think it's easy being on this team?
- Taking a backseat to you every day?
- 966
- 01:10:36,320 --> 01:10:39,920
- We came here to play basketball,
- just like you guys!
- 967
- 01:10:40,000 --> 01:10:43,160
- Now it's like we don't even count.
- We're the minority!
- 968
- 01:10:43,200 --> 01:10:47,440
- I don't wanna hear that from you. I have
- been the minority every day of my life.
- 969
- 01:10:47,480 --> 01:10:52,680
- And you're crying because you spent
- the last few months in our shadows?
- 970
- 01:10:57,000 --> 01:10:59,360
- Welcome to the back of the bus,
- white boy.
- 971
- 01:10:59,520 --> 01:11:03,960
- I wish y'all would just sit back here
- and listen to yourselves.
- 972
- 01:11:04,600 --> 01:11:11,200
- It's worse than losing the game.
- You've all forgotten what you're doing here.
- 973
- 01:11:13,560 --> 01:11:17,360
- What do you wanna do?
- You wanna quit?
- 974
- 01:11:17,400 --> 01:11:22,040
- - They're trying to take our dignity from us.
- - Your dignity's inside you.
- 975
- 01:11:22,040 --> 01:11:25,880
- Nobody can take something away from you
- you don't give them.
- 976
- 01:11:26,960 --> 01:11:28,120
- Hey.
- 977
- 01:11:30,080 --> 01:11:32,200
- Hold your heads up.
- 978
- 01:11:33,640 --> 01:11:35,960
- Hold your heads up.
- 979
- 01:11:36,520 --> 01:11:38,880
- You wanna shake off that hate?
- 980
- 01:11:41,720 --> 01:11:46,520
- It's your choice, Harry Flournoy.
- It's your choice, Jerry Armstrong.
- 981
- 01:11:46,560 --> 01:11:48,240
- Togo.
- 982
- 01:11:48,240 --> 01:11:51,000
- Cager, Hill, it's your choice.
- 983
- 01:11:51,120 --> 01:11:53,600
- Shut them up.
- 984
- 01:11:53,640 --> 01:11:54,960
- Win.
- 985
- 01:11:55,920 --> 01:11:58,400
- The NCAA Tournament gets off
- to a rip-roaring start
- 986
- 01:11:58,440 --> 01:12:02,480
- as the powerhouse Kansas Jayhawks
- take on the upstart Texas Western Miners.
- 987
- 01:12:02,600 --> 01:12:05,520
- Thank you
- for keeping us together.
- 988
- 01:12:05,640 --> 01:12:09,880
- Lord, we ask that you see us through,
- no matter what the obstacles.
- 989
- 01:12:09,920 --> 01:12:12,640
- No matter how high the mountains.
- 990
- 01:12:13,560 --> 01:12:16,320
- - Amen.
- - Amen.
- 991
- 01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:18,520
- Let's go, guys.
- Let's get this game.
- 992
- 01:12:18,520 --> 01:12:23,000
- While the Texas Western club has turned
- heads across the country with this roster,
- 993
- 01:12:23,040 --> 01:12:26,040
- it's safe to say that Haskins' experiment
- should end tonight.
- 994
- 01:12:35,640 --> 01:12:38,360
- - Coach?
- - You must be Mrs. Cager.
- 995
- 01:12:39,560 --> 01:12:44,440
- - Thanks for seeing me before the game.
- - I know you come a long way, so...
- 996
- 01:12:44,440 --> 01:12:47,880
- You have too.
- You know, you're all he talks about.
- 997
- 01:12:48,480 --> 01:12:53,800
- "Coach said this" and "Coach said that."
- So I said, "Let me meet this man."
- 998
- 01:12:53,840 --> 01:12:57,160
- Well, Mrs. Cager, your son's
- all a coach could ever ask for.
- 999
- 01:12:57,240 --> 01:13:00,520
- He's hard working, he's unselfish.
- 1000
- 01:13:00,560 --> 01:13:05,480
- Tell you the truth, I wouldn't be here
- if it wasn't for Willie.
- 1001
- 01:13:06,120 --> 01:13:09,520
- Mr. Haskins, I came to ask you
- to let him play.
- 1002
- 01:13:13,360 --> 01:13:16,880
- Mrs. Cager, the thing is,
- his condition is just...
- 1003
- 01:13:16,920 --> 01:13:20,080
- I know about it better than anyone.
- 1004
- 01:13:21,320 --> 01:13:24,360
- This is his time.
- 1005
- 01:13:24,360 --> 01:13:27,600
- These are the last games
- he'll ever play.
- 1006
- 01:13:28,640 --> 01:13:32,400
- I don't care if it's just five minutes
- or five seconds.
- 1007
- 01:13:32,400 --> 01:13:36,200
- Just... let him play.
- 1008
- 01:13:41,000 --> 01:13:44,560
- Led by all-American JoJo White.
- The number-six Jayhawks are. With Duke.
- 1009
- 01:13:44,640 --> 01:13:48,880
- The favorites to challenge Rupp and
- Kentucky for basketball's holy grail.
- 1010
- 01:13:48,960 --> 01:13:50,880
- That's the all-American.
- 1011
- 01:13:50,960 --> 01:13:53,160
- All press clippings.
- 1012
- 01:13:53,200 --> 01:13:56,160
- - Think so?
- - He's all talk too.
- 1013
- 01:14:09,840 --> 01:14:15,160
- Bobby Joe Hill will set up
- the Texas Miner offense in the front court.
- 1014
- 01:14:15,760 --> 01:14:17,480
- Stolen! JoJo White.
- 1015
- 01:14:17,600 --> 01:14:20,000
- Tremendous
- anticipation defensively by White.
- 1016
- 01:14:20,040 --> 01:14:22,880
- Easy pass and a dunk,
- and a four-nothing Jayhawk lead.
- 1017
- 01:14:23,000 --> 01:14:25,800
- You gotta protect the ball, Hill!
- 1018
- 01:14:25,880 --> 01:14:27,800
- Ball in to Wesley.
- 1019
- 01:14:28,440 --> 01:14:30,320
- He just overpowers Lattin.
- 1020
- 01:14:30,360 --> 01:14:33,560
- Wesley trying to
- intimidate Lattin early on in the game.
- 1021
- 01:14:33,600 --> 01:14:35,720
- Defense! Defense!
- 1022
- 01:14:37,840 --> 01:14:40,480
- White extends
- the Jayhawk lead to five.
- 1023
- 01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:44,080
- But more importantly
- now Kansas has all the momentum.
- 1024
- 01:14:44,160 --> 01:14:47,240
- It looks like Haskins
- is going to go to his bench.
- 1025
- 01:14:47,280 --> 01:14:49,080
- He's calling for Willie Cager.
- 1026
- 01:14:49,160 --> 01:14:52,160
- Cager missed
- half the season with heart problems.
- 1027
- 01:14:52,200 --> 01:14:55,480
- But the Miners sure could use
- a lift right now.
- 1028
- 01:14:58,160 --> 01:15:00,960
- Now Cager
- from the top of the key.
- 1029
- 01:15:01,000 --> 01:15:02,400
- It's good!
- 1030
- 01:15:03,320 --> 01:15:07,760
- Hey, welcome home, son! That's a good
- play, Cager! Way to be out there!
- 1031
- 01:15:07,920 --> 01:15:09,800
- - That's my son.
- - Plays good.
- 1032
- 01:15:11,360 --> 01:15:14,680
- JoJo White
- into the front court. 22-footer.
- 1033
- 01:15:14,680 --> 01:15:16,160
- It's good!
- 1034
- 01:15:16,200 --> 01:15:18,760
- Bobby Joe Hill looking to answer
- for the Miners.
- 1035
- 01:15:18,840 --> 01:15:19,840
- And he'll score!
- 1036
- 01:15:19,880 --> 01:15:23,840
- And these two point
- guards are really putting on a show.
- 1037
- 01:15:23,880 --> 01:15:27,520
- It's JoJo's turn.
- From the wing. He looks unstoppable!
- 1038
- 01:15:27,560 --> 01:15:29,240
- And Coach Haskins calls time.
- 1039
- 01:15:29,240 --> 01:15:33,080
- Y'all are paying so much attention
- to their jerseys that you're playing tight.
- 1040
- 01:15:33,120 --> 01:15:37,640
- JoJo's having a big night, so I'm making a
- change. Armstrong, you're in for Worsley.
- 1041
- 01:15:37,680 --> 01:15:41,200
- Now, if you can stop him, bottom line is
- we're gonna win this game.
- 1042
- 01:15:41,280 --> 01:15:44,560
- - Don't worry. I'll take care of him.
- - Let's go to work.
- 1043
- 01:15:44,560 --> 01:15:46,480
- On three.
- 1044
- 01:15:46,520 --> 01:15:48,200
- - Let's go, team.
- - One, two, three!
- 1045
- 01:15:48,240 --> 01:15:49,720
- Miners!
- 1046
- 01:15:59,320 --> 01:16:00,560
- That's good D, son.
- 1047
- 01:16:01,680 --> 01:16:06,040
- Lattin. Back door to Shed.
- And he'll lay it in for two.
- 1048
- 01:16:16,240 --> 01:16:19,880
- Here in the second half.
- Armstrong has shut down JoJo White.
- 1049
- 01:16:19,880 --> 01:16:22,680
- We need a stop!
- We need a stop!
- 1050
- 01:16:25,440 --> 01:16:28,120
- Kansas scores.
- And they lead by two!
- 1051
- 01:16:28,160 --> 01:16:30,400
- - Seven seconds! Push the ball!
- - Seven seconds!
- 1052
- 01:16:30,480 --> 01:16:32,920
- No time-outs for the Miners!
- 1053
- 01:16:37,520 --> 01:16:40,040
- Long inbound to Lattin.
- 1054
- 01:16:40,160 --> 01:16:43,800
- Back out to Hill. To the basket!
- 1055
- 01:16:43,840 --> 01:16:45,720
- Cager! He got it!
- 1056
- 01:16:47,080 --> 01:16:48,680
- What a play!
- 1057
- 01:16:48,760 --> 01:16:52,880
- He wasn't expected to play tonight.
- But he saved the season for the Miners!
- 1058
- 01:16:53,000 --> 01:16:57,400
- Overtime! Hey, you got an overtime!
- Hey, get in here! We got an overtime!
- 1059
- 01:16:57,480 --> 01:17:01,120
- And we'll play overtime
- to settle this one!
- 1060
- 01:17:05,920 --> 01:17:07,960
- That's the way to go! That's it!
- 1061
- 01:17:11,160 --> 01:17:14,520
- Just seconds remaining.
- 1062
- 01:17:14,560 --> 01:17:16,480
- Artis. Up to Lattin.
- 1063
- 01:17:16,520 --> 01:17:20,280
- It's good! And the Miners win!
- The Miners win!
- 1064
- 01:17:20,280 --> 01:17:24,680
- They're calling it
- hanging on the rim! I can't believe it!
- 1065
- 01:17:24,720 --> 01:17:27,560
- A foul called
- against David Lattin.
- 1066
- 01:17:27,720 --> 01:17:30,800
- The basket will count
- and Kansas will shoot two free throws
- 1067
- 01:17:30,880 --> 01:17:33,720
- to try to send the game
- to a second overtime.
- 1068
- 01:17:49,840 --> 01:17:53,480
- JoJo makes both.
- And we're going to a second overtime.
- 1069
- 01:17:53,520 --> 01:17:55,120
- All right, bring it in!
- 1070
- 01:17:55,160 --> 01:17:57,680
- Oh. Is this a game for the record books!
- 1071
- 01:17:57,720 --> 01:17:59,600
- We got a great mismatch, a little low.
- 1072
- 01:17:59,640 --> 01:18:03,080
- So we're gonna swing in the ball
- and let him take his man one on one.
- 1073
- 01:18:03,200 --> 01:18:04,960
- You got it? All right, let's do it.
- 1074
- 01:18:08,000 --> 01:18:12,800
- OK, here we go. The winner moves on
- for the national championship.
- 1075
- 01:18:12,840 --> 01:18:15,360
- Lattin. Cross-court pass to Artis.
- 1076
- 01:18:15,360 --> 01:18:17,840
- He'll drive the baseline and score!
- 1077
- 01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:21,400
- The Jayhawk defender really bit
- on that fake. And the Miners lead by one.
- 1078
- 01:18:21,480 --> 01:18:23,800
- Kansas needs a basket to win.
- Where they going?
- 1079
- 01:18:23,920 --> 01:18:26,640
- Everyone knows
- who will take this shot -
- 1080
- 01:18:26,680 --> 01:18:29,320
- it's their all-American JoJo White.
- 1081
- 01:18:32,280 --> 01:18:34,920
- Ball goes in to JoJo!
- 1082
- 01:18:35,040 --> 01:18:36,680
- From the sideline!
- 1083
- 01:18:38,560 --> 01:18:42,200
- It's good! Kansas wins! Kansas wins!
- 1084
- 01:18:46,000 --> 01:18:49,840
- Wait a minute. Ralph!
- It looks like he stepped on the line.
- 1085
- 01:18:49,840 --> 01:18:52,560
- I think the official's going
- to wave the basket off.
- 1086
- 01:18:52,600 --> 01:18:57,560
- It's no good! And Texas
- Western's improbable story continues
- 1087
- 01:18:57,560 --> 01:19:01,960
- with an 81-80 double overtime win
- over the Kansas Jayhawks.
- 1088
- 01:19:09,080 --> 01:19:11,600
- Have you seen this?
- Have you read this already?
- 1089
- 01:19:11,680 --> 01:19:12,800
- I read it.
- 1090
- 01:19:12,880 --> 01:19:16,920
- It says, "The selfless support of Texas
- Western's booster Wade Richardsons,
- 1091
- 01:19:17,040 --> 01:19:21,400
- which has made this breakout team's rise
- a true phenomenon in the sports world."
- 1092
- 01:19:21,480 --> 01:19:24,760
- Well, they got you down,
- didn't they, sir?
- 1093
- 01:19:24,800 --> 01:19:27,080
- Just forget all that stuff I said before.
- 1094
- 01:19:27,200 --> 01:19:31,520
- I've been selling more dinettes than
- I've sold in the last four years combined.
- 1095
- 01:19:34,560 --> 01:19:38,640
- You're 24 hours from the biggest game
- in college basketball. How do you feel?
- 1096
- 01:19:38,760 --> 01:19:40,440
- You know, I've been here before.
- 1097
- 01:19:40,480 --> 01:19:43,200
- It's been some time now,
- but I've had some success here
- 1098
- 01:19:43,240 --> 01:19:46,200
- and I feel like I'm coming home, really.
- 1099
- 01:19:46,280 --> 01:19:48,400
- I'm just glad to be here.
- 1100
- 01:19:48,520 --> 01:19:51,400
- I'd like to ask you
- about your controversial win over Kansas.
- 1101
- 01:19:51,400 --> 01:19:56,800
- There's no controversy. JoJo White
- stepped out of bounds. They lost, we won.
- 1102
- 01:20:05,200 --> 01:20:09,280
- Coach Haskins, how do you plan on
- stopping Louie Dampier and Pat Riley?
- 1103
- 01:20:09,320 --> 01:20:13,160
- Ask Coach Rupp how he plans on
- stopping David Lattin and Bobby Joe Hill.
- 1104
- 01:20:13,240 --> 01:20:14,120
- Who?
- 1105
- 01:20:15,840 --> 01:20:17,360
- You have to admit. Coach Rupp.
- 1106
- 01:20:17,440 --> 01:20:21,320
- That the Negro player is changing
- the game of basketball.
- 1107
- 01:20:21,400 --> 01:20:22,360
- Oh?
- 1108
- 01:20:22,480 --> 01:20:28,840
- Well, as far as I know, basketball's about
- taking the basketball, putting it in the hoop.
- 1109
- 01:20:29,400 --> 01:20:33,760
- And you can quote me.
- I don't think that's going to change.
- 1110
- 01:20:33,800 --> 01:20:36,480
- That horrible man,
- playing those coloreds.
- 1111
- 01:20:36,520 --> 01:20:39,000
- And where are you from, sweetheart?
- 1112
- 01:20:39,080 --> 01:20:43,560
- El Paso, Texas. I'm married to that
- horrible man you were just talking about.
- 1113
- 01:20:43,600 --> 01:20:47,760
- Coach Rupp, what do you think of their
- lightning-quick guard, Bobby Joe Hill?
- 1114
- 01:20:47,840 --> 01:20:51,280
- He's a good boy. But there's lots
- of good boys out there this year.
- 1115
- 01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:54,320
- Well. This good little boy led us
- to 23 and one.
- 1116
- 01:20:55,760 --> 01:20:58,040
- Well, I think you understood my point.
- 1117
- 01:20:58,160 --> 01:21:03,240
- My point is that we at Kentucky don't worry
- about the boys in other uniforms.
- 1118
- 01:21:03,320 --> 01:21:04,760
- We play our game.
- 1119
- 01:21:07,600 --> 01:21:12,880
- Don't pay them any mind.
- It's just how some people were raised.
- 1120
- 01:21:12,960 --> 01:21:15,640
- Well, they weren't raised right.
- 1121
- 01:21:15,680 --> 01:21:17,760
- I guess not.
- 1122
- 01:21:19,400 --> 01:21:22,520
- But not everybody thinks like that.
- 1123
- 01:21:23,840 --> 01:21:26,680
- My name is Esther.
- 1124
- 01:21:26,760 --> 01:21:28,800
- Esther Rupp.
- 1125
- 01:21:29,400 --> 01:21:33,840
- Nice to meet you. Mary Haskins.
- 1126
- 01:21:34,480 --> 01:21:37,640
- Let's get this game over with
- so we can get back to Memphis.
- 1127
- 01:21:37,680 --> 01:21:42,240
- Well, one thing's for sure -
- can't no five niggers beat five white boys.
- 1128
- 01:21:43,120 --> 01:21:47,280
- Yeah. Just black trash, that's all they are.
- They think they belong here.
- 1129
- 01:21:47,320 --> 01:21:48,760
- Harris. That's enough.
- 1130
- 01:21:48,800 --> 01:21:52,280
- - Wait, I'm just getting started here. Hold it.
- 1131
- 01:21:52,800 --> 01:21:56,720
- Maybe old Coach Rupp still
- has a thing to learn about basketball.
- 1132
- 01:21:56,760 --> 01:22:00,720
- These boys are playing
- for more than just the championship.
- 1133
- 01:22:03,200 --> 01:22:05,320
- When I came here...
- 1134
- 01:22:08,000 --> 01:22:10,120
- I didn't wanna come.
- 1135
- 01:22:12,040 --> 01:22:14,880
- I didn't wanna be a part of this.
- 1136
- 01:22:16,240 --> 01:22:18,720
- But I was wrong, Don.
- 1137
- 01:22:19,680 --> 01:22:21,760
- I was wrong.
- 1138
- 01:23:11,800 --> 01:23:14,400
- You know, my dad called.
- 1139
- 01:23:14,520 --> 01:23:20,040
- He said everybody in town's going to
- Thelma's Steakhouse to watch the game.
- 1140
- 01:23:23,400 --> 01:23:25,920
- He said he was proud of me.
- 1141
- 01:23:25,920 --> 01:23:31,120
- It was always just a game to me. But now
- it feels like a lot more than a game.
- 1142
- 01:23:31,160 --> 01:23:36,000
- Yeah, I know what you mean, brother.
- Feels like my whole life.
- 1143
- 01:23:36,080 --> 01:23:39,880
- My folks are driving down
- with Willie's parents.
- 1144
- 01:23:40,040 --> 01:23:43,160
- My old man's coming too.
- 1145
- 01:23:43,160 --> 01:23:49,680
- He was always a baseball fan.
- But I think he's finally liking basketball.
- 1146
- 01:23:49,800 --> 01:23:52,120
- Bobby Joe. You hear me, man?
- 1147
- 01:23:53,000 --> 01:23:56,920
- This ain't gonna be nothing.
- It's just a day at the playground.
- 1148
- 01:24:04,000 --> 01:24:05,080
- Hello?
- 1149
- 01:24:12,640 --> 01:24:14,840
- Take a look out there.
- 1150
- 01:24:15,800 --> 01:24:18,240
- We can't win tomorrow night.
- 1151
- 01:24:20,320 --> 01:24:23,000
- You're not a championship team.
- 1152
- 01:24:23,920 --> 01:24:28,440
- You've been lucky so far,
- but tomorrow your luck's gonna run out.
- 1153
- 01:24:31,280 --> 01:24:34,320
- To win at this level, you gotta have a...
- 1154
- 01:24:36,800 --> 01:24:40,280
- intelligence inside you out on that court.
- 1155
- 01:24:41,080 --> 01:24:43,400
- You gotta be able to think.
- 1156
- 01:24:43,560 --> 01:24:46,760
- We just got too much
- of the wrong complexion.
- 1157
- 01:24:49,640 --> 01:24:52,400
- You're athletes, sure.
- 1158
- 01:24:52,520 --> 01:24:55,400
- But so are monkeys.
- 1159
- 01:24:58,120 --> 01:24:59,160
- Mm-hm.
- 1160
- 01:24:59,200 --> 01:25:01,920
- You can run. You can jump.
- 1161
- 01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:05,560
- Maybe even hit the occasional outside shot
- with the right training,
- 1162
- 01:25:05,600 --> 01:25:08,280
- but to compete against a real team...
- 1163
- 01:25:11,720 --> 01:25:18,320
- Well, should I go on, or you as sick
- of this same old tired line of BS as I am?
- 1164
- 01:25:22,920 --> 01:25:28,800
- I'm so sick of it, tonight I made a decision
- that we're gonna put a stop to it forever.
- 1165
- 01:25:32,040 --> 01:25:34,400
- Lattin.
- 1166
- 01:25:34,400 --> 01:25:35,800
- Flournoy.
- 1167
- 01:25:35,920 --> 01:25:38,360
- Artis, Cager, Worsley, Hill.
- 1168
- 01:25:39,800 --> 01:25:40,920
- Shed.
- 1169
- 01:25:43,640 --> 01:25:46,040
- Five starters, two subs.
- 1170
- 01:25:46,120 --> 01:25:48,200
- 40 minutes, seven players.
- 1171
- 01:25:48,200 --> 01:25:52,840
- I'm only gonna play the black players
- in the final game tomorrow.
- 1172
- 01:25:52,920 --> 01:25:55,040
- Just you.
- 1173
- 01:25:55,080 --> 01:25:57,400
- Togo, Armstrong, Palacio,
- 1174
- 01:25:57,440 --> 01:25:59,760
- Myers, Baudoin.
- 1175
- 01:26:00,800 --> 01:26:04,800
- I know how hard every one of you worked
- to get here. I don't wanna hurt any of you.
- 1176
- 01:26:04,920 --> 01:26:08,080
- Coach. I can't lie.
- 1177
- 01:26:08,160 --> 01:26:10,240
- I wanna play.
- 1178
- 01:26:11,080 --> 01:26:13,880
- I do. We all wanna play.
- 1179
- 01:26:17,360 --> 01:26:21,200
- But I just wanna say one thing.
- 1180
- 01:26:23,880 --> 01:26:25,800
- Tomorrow night,
- 1181
- 01:26:25,800 --> 01:26:32,360
- y'all go out there and show 'em how bad
- five brothers can be on the court.
- 1182
- 01:26:34,720 --> 01:26:36,640
- OK?
- 1183
- 01:26:38,760 --> 01:26:43,840
- Flournoy, if you don't get back and play
- defense, I'll be all over your black butt.
- 1184
- 01:26:55,120 --> 01:26:58,200
- Good evening and welcome
- to the Cole Field House for the finals
- 1185
- 01:26:58,200 --> 01:27:00,680
- of the NCAA Championship game
- 1186
- 01:27:00,720 --> 01:27:05,640
- between the University of Kentucky
- and Texas Western College.
- 1187
- 01:27:05,760 --> 01:27:08,160
- And here come the Miners.
- 1188
- 01:27:17,920 --> 01:27:20,600
- When this tournament began.
- Virtually everybody
- 1189
- 01:27:20,640 --> 01:27:22,560
- could have predicted one of our finalists.
- 1190
- 01:27:22,640 --> 01:27:25,240
- But I don't think anyone
- could have predicted the other.
- 1191
- 01:27:25,400 --> 01:27:28,840
- It's Texas Western College
- against the University of Kentucky
- 1192
- 01:27:28,880 --> 01:27:31,320
- for the NCAA Championship.
- 1193
- 01:27:31,400 --> 01:27:33,880
- A little mining college from
- out in West Texas.
- 1194
- 01:27:33,920 --> 01:27:37,880
- A scrappy bunch with an unusual lineup
- going against basketball royalty.
- 1195
- 01:27:37,920 --> 01:27:42,160
- The Baron of the Bluegrass
- and his four NCAA men's championships.
- 1196
- 01:27:42,240 --> 01:27:44,920
- If there was ever more of a mismatch,
- I don't remember it.
- 1197
- 01:27:45,000 --> 01:27:48,240
- Here's tonight's starting lineup
- for the Kentucky Wildcats.
- 1198
- 01:27:48,240 --> 01:27:51,320
- At guard number 30, six-three,
- Tommy Kron.
- 1199
- 01:27:51,360 --> 01:27:53,640
- The Cats are led
- by two great all-Americans.
- 1200
- 01:27:53,760 --> 01:27:58,480
- First of all. Sharp-shooting Louie Dampier
- and the high-scoring Pat Riley.
- 1201
- 01:27:58,600 --> 01:28:00,680
- These guys play with speed.
- 1202
- 01:28:00,720 --> 01:28:04,520
- They play with poise
- and they play with intelligence.
- 1203
- 01:28:04,520 --> 01:28:08,160
- And the coach of
- the Kentucky Wildcats. Adolph Rupp.
- 1204
- 01:28:08,200 --> 01:28:12,440
- Now here's the starting lineup
- for the Texas Western Miners.
- 1205
- 01:28:12,480 --> 01:28:17,440
- At guard. Out of Detroit. Michigan.
- Number 14. five-ten. Bobby Joe Hill.
- 1206
- 01:28:17,480 --> 01:28:21,400
- At the other guard, number 24,
- five-six Willie Worsley.
- 1207
- 01:28:21,480 --> 01:28:26,280
- At center. From Houston. Texas.
- Number 43. six-seven. David Lattin.
- 1208
- 01:28:26,320 --> 01:28:29,880
- At forward. Number 44. six-five.
- Harry Flournoy.
- 1209
- 01:28:29,920 --> 01:28:33,000
- At the other forward. Number 20.
- Orsten Artis.
- 1210
- 01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:36,800
- And the coach of the Texas Western
- Miners. Don Haskins.
- 1211
- 01:28:36,840 --> 01:28:39,560
- We have a
- David-versus-Goliath match-up.
- 1212
- 01:28:39,680 --> 01:28:43,760
- Texas Western against Kentucky
- for the NCAA Championship.
- 1213
- 01:28:43,880 --> 01:28:47,120
- You had a great season, Coach.
- You must be thrilled to be here.
- 1214
- 01:28:49,400 --> 01:28:51,560
- - One, two, three.
- - Miners!
- 1215
- 01:28:52,400 --> 01:28:55,040
- You three guards are in there
- to stop their fast break.
- 1216
- 01:28:55,080 --> 01:28:57,120
- Make them have to walk it down the court.
- 1217
- 01:28:57,160 --> 01:29:00,520
- You saw who they put on the floor.
- They're gonna try to run against us.
- 1218
- 01:29:00,560 --> 01:29:04,520
- In an unprecedented move, Coach
- Haskins is starting five Negro players.
- 1219
- 01:29:04,640 --> 01:29:08,080
- - That's a spit in the face.
- - A first in NCAA Championship history.
- 1220
- 01:29:08,240 --> 01:29:12,200
- Now I want you to get angry. Go out there
- first time you get the ball and dunk it.
- 1221
- 01:29:12,200 --> 01:29:15,080
- I don't care if you have
- to run someone over to do it.
- 1222
- 01:29:15,160 --> 01:29:16,880
- We're faster.
- We can spit right back.
- 1223
- 01:29:16,920 --> 01:29:18,480
- Send 'em a message. Get in there.
- 1224
- 01:29:18,600 --> 01:29:21,160
- They're the one that got a chip
- on their shoulder, not us.
- 1225
- 01:29:21,280 --> 01:29:24,200
- It ain't about nothing except basketball.
- One, two, three!
- 1226
- 01:29:24,240 --> 01:29:25,720
- Miners!
- 1227
- 01:29:25,760 --> 01:29:29,520
- Dampier's a great ball handler. You try
- to take it from him, he's gonna burn you.
- 1228
- 01:29:29,560 --> 01:29:32,240
- - Come on, Coach.
- - Some say he's the best guard.
- 1229
- 01:29:32,280 --> 01:29:35,120
- If I had a choice between him and you,
- I'd choose you.
- 1230
- 01:29:35,120 --> 01:29:38,000
- That's good, 'cause you know
- he wouldn't have chose me.
- 1231
- 01:29:43,960 --> 01:29:47,440
- The opening tap.
- Big David Lattin against Pat Riley.
- 1232
- 01:29:51,920 --> 01:29:54,640
- And the tap is controlled
- by Texas Western.
- 1233
- 01:29:54,640 --> 01:29:58,680
- Worsley gives it to Bobby Joe Hill.
- Now Hill rockets a pass into Lattin.
- 1234
- 01:29:58,720 --> 01:30:00,600
- And he dunks it over Riley.
- 1235
- 01:30:00,600 --> 01:30:02,720
- Aah!
- 1236
- 01:30:02,760 --> 01:30:03,840
- Yeah!
- 1237
- 01:30:05,960 --> 01:30:10,160
- - He was making a statement with that.
- - And Adolph Rupp looks disgusted.
- 1238
- 01:30:10,200 --> 01:30:14,440
- Now Kentucky on offense for the first time.
- The ball in the hands of Louie Dampier.
- 1239
- 01:30:14,480 --> 01:30:17,120
- Texas Western in a man-to-man.
- He gets it to Conley.
- 1240
- 01:30:17,160 --> 01:30:20,760
- He's got a mismatch on Worsley. Backs
- him down and scores. We're tied at two.
- 1241
- 01:30:20,880 --> 01:30:24,560
- Conley, that's gonna be there
- all night long.
- 1242
- 01:30:24,600 --> 01:30:28,960
- The Miners work the ball into David Lattin.
- He spins outta the double team. Scores.
- 1243
- 01:30:29,000 --> 01:30:30,160
- There it is. There it is.
- 1244
- 01:30:30,200 --> 01:30:34,440
- It's six-seven. 240
- pounds of a powerhouse in the middle.
- 1245
- 01:30:34,520 --> 01:30:37,200
- Wildcats get the ball to the high post.
- Thad Jaracz has it.
- 1246
- 01:30:37,240 --> 01:30:39,920
- - Slow it down. Set it up.
- - Lattin, get physical.
- 1247
- 01:30:39,920 --> 01:30:42,600
- They cut off him.
- He puts it on the floor. Goes to the hoop.
- 1248
- 01:30:42,640 --> 01:30:45,240
- And he is fouled
- and fouled hard by David Lattin.
- 1249
- 01:30:45,320 --> 01:30:48,440
- That's a flagrant foul!
- You gonna call that, ref?
- 1250
- 01:30:48,480 --> 01:30:52,640
- That's a flagrant foul! You want there to be
- a melee? Someone's gonna get hurt here.
- 1251
- 01:30:52,720 --> 01:30:54,240
- I'll call the foul. Two shots.
- 1252
- 01:30:54,240 --> 01:30:56,200
- A pair of free throws ties the game
- at 12.
- 1253
- 01:30:56,280 --> 01:30:58,880
- But the Baron is not happy
- on the Kentucky bench.
- 1254
- 01:30:58,960 --> 01:31:02,040
- Texas Western very disciplined
- against this Kentucky zone.
- 1255
- 01:31:02,160 --> 01:31:05,080
- They work the ball down low to Lattin.
- He goes up for the shot.
- 1256
- 01:31:05,200 --> 01:31:09,440
- No good. Offensive rebound.
- Flournoy. And he is down and hurt.
- 1257
- 01:31:09,480 --> 01:31:11,160
- Stay down.
- Coach.
- 1258
- 01:31:11,200 --> 01:31:12,560
- Ohh!
- 1259
- 01:31:15,720 --> 01:31:17,880
- Where'd he hurt? Harry.
- 1260
- 01:31:17,920 --> 01:31:20,800
- How'd you come down?
- Did it go out or in? Hold still.
- 1261
- 01:31:20,840 --> 01:31:23,680
- Well, that's one less thing
- to worry about.
- 1262
- 01:31:26,680 --> 01:31:28,600
- Cager, you're in.
- 1263
- 01:31:31,680 --> 01:31:34,560
- And it looks like Flournoy has
- to come out of this game.
- 1264
- 01:31:34,640 --> 01:31:37,640
- This will be a huge blow
- to the Miners if he can't return.
- 1265
- 01:31:37,680 --> 01:31:39,000
- He's through for the night.
- 1266
- 01:31:39,080 --> 01:31:43,000
- Oh. Boy. This will be tough because he's
- a great rebounder for Texas Western.
- 1267
- 01:31:43,040 --> 01:31:48,440
- At six-five. He is one of the best.
- And it'll be a disaster if he can't continue.
- 1268
- 01:31:48,440 --> 01:31:50,720
- Tough break, son.
- 1269
- 01:31:54,720 --> 01:31:57,440
- Ten minutes gone
- in this fast-paced first half.
- 1270
- 01:31:57,480 --> 01:32:01,080
- Kentucky with the ball and the lead.
- Here's a backdoor cut by Riley.
- 1271
- 01:32:01,080 --> 01:32:03,040
- He goes up and is slammed to the floor.
- 1272
- 01:32:03,120 --> 01:32:05,840
- And that'll be number three
- on Big David Lattin.
- 1273
- 01:32:05,880 --> 01:32:10,080
- That really hurts the Miners because this
- big guy's been carrying Texas Western
- 1274
- 01:32:10,080 --> 01:32:11,800
- with his strong inside play.
- 1275
- 01:32:11,880 --> 01:32:15,640
- Now Don Haskins will have to take
- the very physical Lattin out of the game.
- 1276
- 01:32:15,640 --> 01:32:17,160
- I can't let you foul out.
- 1277
- 01:32:17,200 --> 01:32:21,720
- And it looks like Nevil Shed is replacing
- him. But they're giving up something here.
- 1278
- 01:32:21,800 --> 01:32:27,000
- Riley's first free throw is good. And Coach
- Haskins wants a word with Bobby Joe Hill.
- 1279
- 01:32:27,720 --> 01:32:31,320
- The Wildcats by four now with a chance
- to stretch their lead.
- 1280
- 01:32:31,360 --> 01:32:34,240
- Here's Tommy Kron
- bringing the ball up for Kentucky.
- 1281
- 01:32:34,280 --> 01:32:36,800
- Orsten Artis all over him.
- And here comes Hill!
- 1282
- 01:32:36,920 --> 01:32:40,360
- He strips it away
- and he's going in for the lay-up!
- 1283
- 01:32:40,360 --> 01:32:42,840
- What a pair of hands.
- 1284
- 01:32:43,680 --> 01:32:45,560
- What a steal by Hill.
- 1285
- 01:32:45,600 --> 01:32:47,240
- That happens when you don't talk
- to each other.
- 1286
- 01:32:47,280 --> 01:32:51,360
- This time Louie Dampier with the
- basketball. He's played by Bobby Joe Hill.
- 1287
- 01:32:51,480 --> 01:32:53,840
- He steps in and steals it again!
- Holy mackerel!
- 1288
- 01:32:53,960 --> 01:32:57,720
- Bobby Joe Hill picked the lock
- on the Fort Knox hands of Louie Dampier.
- 1289
- 01:32:57,760 --> 01:33:02,080
- And he's got back-to-back steals and
- lay-ups. And like that. We're tied again.
- 1290
- 01:33:02,080 --> 01:33:03,720
- Time-out. Time-out!
- 1291
- 01:33:03,760 --> 01:33:07,400
- - Kentucky wants time.
- - Time-out. White.
- 1292
- 01:33:07,480 --> 01:33:08,360
- Yes.
- 1293
- 01:33:12,080 --> 01:33:14,920
- Hey, those are two big-time plays, Hill.
- 1294
- 01:33:14,920 --> 01:33:17,200
- - Are you scared?
- - No, sir!
- 1295
- 01:33:17,360 --> 01:33:19,920
- I know someone who's not scared.
- Conley's not.
- 1296
- 01:33:19,920 --> 01:33:22,040
- We don't teach scared
- at the University of Kentucky.
- 1297
- 01:33:22,040 --> 01:33:25,400
- I need you standing there waiting for 'em
- when they come outta time-out,
- 1298
- 01:33:25,480 --> 01:33:27,080
- like a force, like a wall!
- 1299
- 01:33:27,160 --> 01:33:30,560
- Don't let that guy crowd you!
- Get him out of there.
- 1300
- 01:33:30,600 --> 01:33:34,160
- This the national championship.
- Are you surprised? They come to play.
- 1301
- 01:33:34,240 --> 01:33:38,080
- So we got to play back. We know how
- to play this game better than anybody.
- 1302
- 01:33:38,080 --> 01:33:39,840
- Play the game. Let's go.
- 1303
- 01:33:39,840 --> 01:33:41,560
- Over here!
- 1304
- 01:33:44,440 --> 01:33:46,240
- Yeah!
- 1305
- 01:33:48,080 --> 01:33:49,560
- Set it up, set it up.
- 1306
- 01:33:49,600 --> 01:33:53,000
- Defense, defense!
- Watch Hill. Inside!
- 1307
- 01:33:53,080 --> 01:33:54,360
- Whoa! Whoa!
- 1308
- 01:33:58,080 --> 01:34:00,200
- That's it. That's what I want.
- 1309
- 01:34:09,760 --> 01:34:10,720
- Whoo!
- 1310
- 01:34:13,000 --> 01:34:15,160
- Inside of ten seconds to go. First half.
- 1311
- 01:34:15,320 --> 01:34:19,200
- Jaracz with the ball. High post.
- Looking for Riley. Running off a screen.
- 1312
- 01:34:19,280 --> 01:34:21,400
- Here's a shot at the buzzer.
- 1313
- 01:34:21,440 --> 01:34:23,040
- It's good!
- 1314
- 01:34:27,400 --> 01:34:30,040
- We're all a little shocked.
- 1315
- 01:34:30,080 --> 01:34:32,800
- Texas Western is leading Kentucky
- at the half.
- 1316
- 01:34:32,800 --> 01:34:35,520
- But the smart money
- has to be on Kentucky
- 1317
- 01:34:35,600 --> 01:34:38,600
- 'cause they were firing on all cylinders
- to end the half.
- 1318
- 01:34:38,720 --> 01:34:40,400
- The Miners did have some big plays.
- 1319
- 01:34:40,440 --> 01:34:43,320
- But must be concerned with the three fouls
- on David Lattin
- 1320
- 01:34:43,400 --> 01:34:45,440
- as well as the injury to Harry Flournoy.
- 1321
- 01:34:45,600 --> 01:34:47,040
- He will not return.
- 1322
- 01:34:52,920 --> 01:34:55,600
- - Yo, hurry up, you late.
- - Close the door. Come on.
- 1323
- 01:34:55,640 --> 01:34:58,120
- They're getting ready
- to start the second half.
- 1324
- 01:34:58,120 --> 01:34:59,320
- ... crowning a champion.
- 1325
- 01:34:59,400 --> 01:35:02,280
- Don't let that cocky kid set a tent up
- under the basket.
- 1326
- 01:35:02,360 --> 01:35:06,240
- If he gets position on you, it'll throw down
- every time. Get him out of there!
- 1327
- 01:35:06,240 --> 01:35:11,120
- I'm putting you in with three fouls, Lattin.
- You gotta play smart and protect the paint.
- 1328
- 01:35:11,200 --> 01:35:14,840
- He's trying to figure out how to get you
- to foul out, so keep your feet on the ground.
- 1329
- 01:35:14,960 --> 01:35:17,880
- - Get a body on him. I want him outta there.
- - OK? You ready?
- 1330
- 01:35:17,920 --> 01:35:20,240
- - Are you the University of Kentucky?
- - Yes, sir.
- 1331
- 01:35:20,320 --> 01:35:22,280
- What has the Baron designed
- for his Wildcats?
- 1332
- 01:35:22,320 --> 01:35:25,840
- - Come on, number ten.
- - Wildcats give the ball to Louie Dampier.
- 1333
- 01:35:25,920 --> 01:35:26,880
- Get your hand up!
- 1334
- 01:35:26,920 --> 01:35:29,320
- - Here's his long jump shot.
- - There it is.
- 1335
- 01:35:29,400 --> 01:35:31,520
- And the Kentucky fans are on their feet.
- 1336
- 01:35:31,600 --> 01:35:33,000
- Come on, get back!
- 1337
- 01:35:33,000 --> 01:35:36,360
- The Miners feed it inside to Lattin.
- And Riley steals it away.
- 1338
- 01:35:36,480 --> 01:35:39,200
- Now Kentucky looks to break.
- Tommy Kron on the point.
- 1339
- 01:35:39,280 --> 01:35:42,360
- Feeds it to Riley. Who beats Lattin
- to the basket and lays it in for two!
- 1340
- 01:35:42,440 --> 01:35:44,440
- Now. That is Kentucky basketball.
- 1341
- 01:35:44,520 --> 01:35:45,920
- That's it, that's it.
- 1342
- 01:35:46,040 --> 01:35:49,920
- Kentucky trapping outta their zone.
- And Kron takes it away from Worsley.
- 1343
- 01:35:49,960 --> 01:35:53,520
- The Wildcats look to run again.
- Fast break ahead to Riley.
- 1344
- 01:35:53,520 --> 01:35:56,200
- And that is back-to-back hoops
- for the all-American.
- 1345
- 01:35:56,280 --> 01:36:00,200
- I don't know what Coach Rupp told his
- team at halftime. But they are on fire.
- 1346
- 01:36:00,280 --> 01:36:02,760
- This is how the number-one team
- in the nation plays.
- 1347
- 01:36:02,760 --> 01:36:06,160
- Here's Riley on the move to the basket.
- And Lattin fouls him again.
- 1348
- 01:36:06,240 --> 01:36:08,720
- Foul. Miners, number 43!
- 1349
- 01:36:08,760 --> 01:36:12,320
- And that will send the big center
- to the bench with his fourth foul.
- 1350
- 01:36:12,360 --> 01:36:13,720
- That's aggressive play.
- 1351
- 01:36:13,840 --> 01:36:17,280
- The Miners are hanging in.
- But that's gotta hurt on both ends.
- 1352
- 01:36:17,280 --> 01:36:19,960
- Hey, there's a lot of ball on that, ref.
- 1353
- 01:36:24,200 --> 01:36:28,080
- I know Lattin's out. But you can't do this
- all by yourself. Just slow it down.
- 1354
- 01:36:28,080 --> 01:36:29,600
- OK? Get everybody involved.
- 1355
- 01:36:31,760 --> 01:36:34,960
- And Kentucky leads by eight
- with ten minutes to play.
- 1356
- 01:36:35,080 --> 01:36:37,000
- Ball! Ball, ball!
- 1357
- 01:36:38,200 --> 01:36:41,280
- Bobby Joe Hill will fire one up
- from 25 feet.
- 1358
- 01:36:41,280 --> 01:36:42,240
- And he got it!
- 1359
- 01:36:42,400 --> 01:36:43,560
- Check him! Check him!
- 1360
- 01:36:43,600 --> 01:36:44,720
- Whoo!
- 1361
- 01:36:44,800 --> 01:36:47,040
- Defense, now, defense!
- 1362
- 01:36:52,600 --> 01:36:54,920
- Way to penetrate. That's what I want.
- 1363
- 01:36:57,400 --> 01:36:58,800
- Ah, ha-ha!
- 1364
- 01:37:04,040 --> 01:37:05,080
- Yes!
- 1365
- 01:37:17,320 --> 01:37:20,280
- Cager's spun it off the glass.
- And the Miners lead by three!
- 1366
- 01:37:20,360 --> 01:37:24,040
- Time. Time! Time-out, Wildcats!
- 1367
- 01:37:24,840 --> 01:37:26,360
- Coach Rupp calls time.
- He's seen enough.
- 1368
- 01:37:27,480 --> 01:37:31,360
- Miners lead at 64-61.
- Just two minutes left.
- 1369
- 01:37:38,280 --> 01:37:42,800
- All season, when you had nothing left,
- you come up with it. And you had success.
- 1370
- 01:37:42,880 --> 01:37:44,640
- You did it, you did it.
- 1371
- 01:37:44,720 --> 01:37:48,080
- And that's how we got here, from your
- efforts. From your efforts, we're here.
- 1372
- 01:37:48,120 --> 01:37:52,240
- We are two minutes from a championship.
- Lattin, I'm putting you back in.
- 1373
- 01:37:52,280 --> 01:37:55,000
- Right now it's not about talent -
- it's about heart.
- 1374
- 01:37:55,120 --> 01:37:58,280
- It's about who can go out there
- and play the hardest and the smartest.
- 1375
- 01:37:58,400 --> 01:38:00,400
- This team's a special team.
- 1376
- 01:38:01,640 --> 01:38:03,760
- Special team.
- 1377
- 01:38:05,080 --> 01:38:06,680
- You're gonna win this game.
- 1378
- 01:38:06,800 --> 01:38:08,240
- - You hear that?
- - Yes, sir.
- 1379
- 01:38:08,360 --> 01:38:12,560
- You're gonna win this game.
- So go out there and make me a prophet.
- 1380
- 01:38:12,640 --> 01:38:15,080
- They've been here before -
- they won't give it to us.
- 1381
- 01:38:15,120 --> 01:38:18,960
- We gotta go out there and we gotta take it!
- Right? Take it! Take it!
- 1382
- 01:38:19,000 --> 01:38:21,840
- I want you to go out there and take it!
- One, two, three!
- 1383
- 01:38:21,880 --> 01:38:23,320
- Take it!
- 1384
- 01:38:29,120 --> 01:38:33,360
- Two minutes to go. And the Miners lead
- Adolph Rupp and Kentucky by three.
- 1385
- 01:38:33,360 --> 01:38:35,280
- Defense! Defense!
- 1386
- 01:38:35,280 --> 01:38:36,240
- Four-two.
- 1387
- 01:38:36,400 --> 01:38:39,280
- Louie Dampier guarded tightly
- by Bobby Joe Hill.
- 1388
- 01:38:39,400 --> 01:38:41,960
- He reverses his dribble and fires.
- It's good!
- 1389
- 01:38:41,960 --> 01:38:42,920
- There it is.
- 1390
- 01:38:42,920 --> 01:38:45,400
- That was a big shot.
- 1391
- 01:38:45,480 --> 01:38:47,400
- Miners look to answer.
- 1392
- 01:38:50,000 --> 01:38:51,520
- Yes!
- 1393
- 01:38:51,560 --> 01:38:54,040
- Wildcats into the front court.
- Needing a score.
- 1394
- 01:38:54,080 --> 01:38:56,200
- Riley breaks free.
- 1395
- 01:39:01,880 --> 01:39:03,640
- Set it up! Set it up!
- 1396
- 01:39:03,680 --> 01:39:05,920
- Now who will answer the bell
- for the Miners?
- 1397
- 01:39:06,000 --> 01:39:08,040
- Artis passes it to Cager
- at the foul line.
- 1398
- 01:39:08,080 --> 01:39:12,080
- He slashes around Jaracz.
- Takes it right down Main Street.
- 1399
- 01:39:15,880 --> 01:39:19,400
- So it comes down to this.
- 18 seconds remain.
- 1400
- 01:39:19,480 --> 01:39:21,600
- Wildcats with the ball.
- In need of a score
- 1401
- 01:39:21,680 --> 01:39:25,080
- to keep their hopes
- of a fifth national championship alive.
- 1402
- 01:39:25,080 --> 01:39:29,360
- Kentucky looking inside for a mismatch
- against the shorter Worsley.
- 1403
- 01:39:30,840 --> 01:39:32,760
- Stolen away by Bobby Joe.
- 1404
- 01:39:52,880 --> 01:39:55,960
- Desperation time now for Kentucky
- in the final seconds.
- 1405
- 01:39:56,040 --> 01:39:59,520
- Here's a miss by Kron.
- Lattin has the rebound for Texas Western.
- 1406
- 01:39:59,560 --> 01:40:03,640
- He gives it to Bobby Joe. Looking
- at the clock. Watching it count down.
- 1407
- 01:40:03,720 --> 01:40:06,400
- Ten. Nine. Eight...
- 1408
- 01:40:06,520 --> 01:40:09,800
- The Miners are on their way to victory.
- 1409
- 01:40:16,760 --> 01:40:19,160
- Whoo! Whoo!
- 1410
- 01:40:27,600 --> 01:40:31,400
- This is the greatest upset
- in NCAA history!
- 1411
- 01:40:31,440 --> 01:40:35,640
- Texas Western is
- the new national champion!
- 1412
- 01:40:51,600 --> 01:40:52,600
- Whoo!
- 1413
- 01:40:52,600 --> 01:40:55,400
- National champion!
- 1414
- 01:41:06,160 --> 01:41:09,080
- Mama, I'm a national champion.
- 1415
- 01:41:09,880 --> 01:41:12,560
- I'm a national champion.
- 1416
- 01:41:12,680 --> 01:41:14,200
- Whoo!
- 1417
- 01:41:21,320 --> 01:41:23,880
- Where is he?
- I can't see! Where is he?
- 1418
- 01:41:28,200 --> 01:41:30,360
- I love you, Mama. Thank you.
- 1419
- 01:46:10,600 --> 01:46:16,280
- You know, Kentucky's so big,
- and Adolph Rupp's name was so big,
- 1420
- 01:46:16,320 --> 01:46:21,080
- that, I guess,
- that made it more significant.
- 1421
- 01:46:21,120 --> 01:46:24,560
- The initial thought was,
- "Do we really have a chance here?"
- 1422
- 01:46:24,640 --> 01:46:27,280
- We felt their presence
- at the beginning of the game,
- 1423
- 01:46:27,320 --> 01:46:30,800
- when they came out
- with this incredible effort and zeal.
- 1424
- 01:46:30,880 --> 01:46:35,920
- I think the most significant...
- It's when David Lattin made his dunk shot -
- 1425
- 01:46:36,080 --> 01:46:37,840
- that's what really got us going.
- 1426
- 01:46:37,840 --> 01:46:41,880
- And I went up, and he grabbed it,
- and he just kept going up and up and up.
- 1427
- 01:46:42,000 --> 01:46:43,960
- And he just dunked it
- over the top of me.
- 1428
- 01:46:44,000 --> 01:46:47,800
- He put it down with such ferocity
- that it intimidated me.
- 1429
- 01:46:47,840 --> 01:46:52,440
- And I did tell David before the game,
- if he hadn't run over somebody,
- 1430
- 01:46:52,560 --> 01:46:55,840
- that I wanted him to tear the rim off
- a couple of times.
- 1431
- 01:46:55,840 --> 01:47:01,760
- But those two steals by Bobby Joe Hill
- broke our back
- 1432
- 01:47:01,840 --> 01:47:05,840
- and reinforced what the reality was.
- 1433
- 01:47:06,000 --> 01:47:09,120
- And the reality was this:
- 1434
- 01:47:09,240 --> 01:47:11,320
- They were bigger and they were better
- 1435
- 01:47:11,360 --> 01:47:15,160
- and they were more talented and they were
- quicker. They were a better team.
- 1436
- 01:47:15,200 --> 01:47:18,640
- Kentucky was kind of a tough team
- to match up against.
- 1437
- 01:47:18,680 --> 01:47:21,400
- See, that was a very, very quick team.
- 1438
- 01:47:21,480 --> 01:47:26,520
- And I played the guys
- that I felt we could win with.
- 1439
- 01:47:26,560 --> 01:47:30,160
- We ran out there.
- And what I saw was wall-to-wall people.
- 1440
- 01:47:31,480 --> 01:47:35,040
- The reporter was white.
- The cheerleaders was white.
- 1441
- 01:47:35,160 --> 01:47:37,840
- The referee was white.
- The camera people was white.
- 1442
- 01:47:37,840 --> 01:47:43,080
- It was an atmosphere that could have been
- real hostile for us if we allowed it to be.
- 1443
- 01:47:43,120 --> 01:47:49,400
- I feel that this game was probably
- the Emancipation Proclamation of 1966.
- 1444
- 01:47:49,440 --> 01:47:54,720
- And it wasn't until history started to talk
- about this game, you know, in that context,
- 1445
- 01:47:54,760 --> 01:47:57,640
- that we realized we were part
- of something that was bigger
- 1446
- 01:47:57,760 --> 01:47:59,800
- than just five blacks and five whites.
- 1447
- 01:47:59,880 --> 01:48:04,120
- Black ballplayers were thought of
- as inferior.
- 1448
- 01:48:04,120 --> 01:48:09,680
- You know, can't work under pressure. You
- know, rip 'em a little bit, and they'll fold.
- 1449
- 01:48:09,720 --> 01:48:14,120
- That was the way that a white person
- was thinking back then,
- 1450
- 01:48:14,120 --> 01:48:17,400
- that we couldn't compete
- with the white players.
- 1451
- 01:48:17,560 --> 01:48:20,560
- We experienced a lot of racism
- during that season.
- 1452
- 01:48:20,640 --> 01:48:27,680
- People would spit at you,
- and fans would call us niggers, coons...
- 1453
- 01:48:28,800 --> 01:48:33,720
- And the world looked at it
- in that perspective -
- 1454
- 01:48:33,800 --> 01:48:37,880
- the white team verses this black team.
- For us.
- 1455
- 01:48:38,040 --> 01:48:40,960
- We were playing for much more
- than what they were playing for.
- 1456
- 01:48:40,960 --> 01:48:43,800
- They were playing
- for just another championship.
- 1457
- 01:48:43,840 --> 01:48:48,040
- We were playing to prove that it doesn't
- make any difference what color you were -
- 1458
- 01:48:48,080 --> 01:48:52,640
- if you're given the opportunity,
- you could do anything.
- 1459
- 01:48:52,640 --> 01:48:56,480
- If I could turn back the hands of time,
- 1460
- 01:48:56,520 --> 01:49:03,040
- I would have love to have gone over
- to the Kentucky players
- 1461
- 01:49:03,080 --> 01:49:05,160
- and shaken their hands.
- 1462
- 01:49:05,200 --> 01:49:07,960
- Not to patronize them, you know?
- 1463
- 01:49:08,080 --> 01:49:11,840
- And not to say,
- "Thank you for giving me an opportunity."
- 1464
- 01:49:11,920 --> 01:49:15,280
- You didn't give us this opportunity.
- We earned this, see.
- 1465
- 01:49:15,280 --> 01:49:20,120
- I'm proud to be part of this portrayal
- of a great, great man in Don Haskins
- 1466
- 01:49:20,240 --> 01:49:24,640
- and, you know, players
- who simply cared about being great
- 1467
- 01:49:24,680 --> 01:49:27,840
- and wanting to separate themselves
- from the pack
- 1468
- 01:49:27,880 --> 01:49:32,240
- and wanting to do something unique.
- 1469
- 01:49:32,320 --> 01:49:36,280
- And to leave footprints in the sand.
- They've done that, man.
- 1470
- 01:49:36,280 --> 01:49:38,320
- They've done that.
