Pearl helped define a fantastic generation of college basketball, when the Big East ruled supreme.

Go Gophers!!
 

Mortality check time. Very sad, he wasn't much older than me and represented the Golden Era (at least to me) of college basketball of the early/mid '80s. RIP, Pearl.

Yep. IMO the best era by far. I really liked The Pearl.
 


What a shame. He was a terrific player and his style was tremendously fun to watch.
