I may be off on the events of 1957, but JamesOn Curry will not be playing with North Carolina this year, at least. His offer was rescinded after a guilty plea to a felony marijuana possession and sale charge and he has signed with Oklahoma State.

By the way, I should have known it was NC and not Kansas, since the Heels beat my MSU Spartans in a triple overtime semi-final before winning the championship against Kansas in another triple overtime game the next day. But the Offensive Goaltending rule was for Chamberlain, not Lennie Rosenbluth. Incidently, 1956-57 was also the year the NCAA widened the lane to 12 feet.

Thought I heard something on the radio like that about Curry. Too bad for NC. But, they don't need him to win another championship. Obviopusly, NC thought so too. Better to stay clear of troublesome players....Providence learned about that with Marvin Barnes in the 70's. Zero tolerance is the best policy.
