He brought so much basketball knowledge. Great source of info regarding USF hoops. What is really sad is that I feel the USF hoops program is finally going to win and he won’t be at the Yuengling Center to witness it all in person. May he rest in peace and be with us all spiritually as we enjoy the rise of USF hoops….. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a nice guy with just like you said a lot of Bball knowledge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was ..... but have shockingly forgotten his "secret agent name" and I don't think has posted for several years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hightechbull Posted January 30 Group: Member Topic Count: 232 Content Count: 2,511 Reputation: 279 Days Won: 0 Joined: 01/01/2001 Share Posted January 30 (edited) I just found out about this. Very sad. I followed his YouTube channel and he often had better post-game coverage than the official USF YouTube channel. He worked for Bulls Insider at rivals.com, so that might explain why he was not posting here. This is his YouTube channel if you want to go down memory lane. https://www.youtube.com/@Russ_Hoops/videos Edited January 30 by hightechbull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
