Funny team names

In fact, I once met a fellow official by that name at a basketball camp. He was from the east coast, iirc, and worked many levels. This thread reminds me that I didn't see him at camp this year (at IL College).

I think I might know him. Is his first name "Ima"? If so, he coached a huge number of my games.
