Name: Dave
Age: 56
Place of Residence: Dryden, NY (south of Syracuse, near Ithaca) but grew up in dallas and then lived in new orleans for 10 years before moving up here 23 years ago.
Favorite Fast Food: Schlotzkys is favorite but get it once every 5 years or so (Wendys is fave of current selection i suppose, or maybe subway)
Favorite School: TAMU (honorable mention to local fave Cuse and WVU where my daughter went.... and also Cornell where i work ....hey--- Men and Women #1 in hockey!)
Fun Fact about Me: Nearly won the New York State Golf Senior Amateur in 2019 but last day was rained out and finished 2nd by 1 shot
Furthest You've made it in the NT: got lucky and won a few times.
Do you read, skim or skip the play by play most days/ every day? almost always read the second half prior to knowing the result. probably dont learn much, just entertainment
Favorite NBA team: Depending on the day, i might say Pels, Bucks, Mavs, or something else. No real team. But was Mavs season ticket holder in inagurual season of 1980-81
Favorite All time NBA player: Kiki Vandeweghe! haha. Actually I hate him... but Mavs traded him for picks that became my two favorite players: Rolando Blackman and Sam Perkins. Also loved Derek Harper.
Favorite Current NBA player: Klay. love that he can impact game without dominating ball which seems rare these days
Favorite All time college players: Cornell big Red Sweet16 team 2010 - Ryan Wittman, Louis Dale Jeff Foote, Geoff Reeves, Adam Wire, Chris Wrobolewski, Jon Jaques, Alex Tyler, Aaron Osgood, Errick Peck... omg I loved that team. loved. also have liked alot of cuse guys especially: Josh Pace, CJ Fair, Gerry McNamara, Michael Gbinije, Jonny Flynn, and buncha others.
Favorite Current college player: Marek Dolejaz!
Current Favorite HD team you coach: PBA (iba)
Have you ever considered buying a shirt of a school you coach in HD? Done it. Note: my first team and my longest running most successful team was Oneonta (iba). Many years after I started coaching there, it came time for my son to pick a real life college. ..completely coincidentally, he choose oneonta and 4 years later got a bachelors degree from there. disappointingly, my name is not on the court there. So, yeah, Ive got Oneotna shirts, and also have Cuse shirts
Ryan Wittman was the greatest shooter I've ever seen in the Ivy League. Of course, Donahue got lucky with Dale and Foote just showing up on Cornell's campus. But that was a helluva team, and Donahue really did a great coaching job with them for their time on campus.
