Street baller to college to the League NBA!!! I grew up on this dude!!! Love the way he made it to the NBA!! Hard Work!! For a lot of street ballers he tried to show them the way!!!!!!! #SkipToMyLou#Legend!!!
Man crazy thing is, Alimoe aka Black Widow had a chance to go to Fresno St. with Skip but chose to stay a street baller cause he listened to other ppl. Would've been nice to see them playing college ball together. #RespectToSkip #RIPAlimoe
5 years later - the story is even worse with the details. The scout from Fresno came to NYC and saw them both play. Spoke to both and sent each of them a $300 plane ticket to fly out to Fresno. Skip took the flight and Alimoe ended up selling the ticket for the cash. Skip ended up in the league making millions. Alimoe died penniless from diabetes as a result of not taking his medication consistently. It's so wild how one decision can lead to such drastic outcomes down the line.
No disrespect but You never played ball or don't understand basketball if you compare hot sauce to Skip🤣 Skip is on a entire different level.. That's like comparing Michael Jordan to Harold Miner🤔think about lol you probably don't know who is Harold Miner is but that sums it up LOl.. Basically he will never measure up.
FS basketball still hasn't recovered from Tark's days, but Selland was one helluva' place to catch a game. Hopefully Coach Terry and the high-profile recruits he's bringing in can finally let us know if Save Mart Center has the potential to rock as well as Selland Arena used to.
Wow de ja vu Im from Hawaii and even though Skip Herren and those guys were our biggest rival then I still loved to watch them play. So much talent on those teams. Brunner, Avondre Jones, Courtney Alexander, Melvin Ely etc. The WAC is not what it once was. Hawaii also had a good team with AC Anthony Carter, we beat #2 Kansas w/ Paula Pierce. Good times!
I remember the Fresno City College connection when I was a Freshman in College as I went to a couple games and saw Rafer Alston with the dreads before he got them cut and Larry Abney. Wow what great talent from NY they were. If only Allie Moe, (not sure is if I spelled his name correctly) would have followed Rafer on the plane to Fresno State they would have been very talented.
Coach trying his best not to smile but he eating this up. I'm sure he's thinking to himself while smiling "I'm so glad I didn't write him off after the scout brought me And 1 Mixtape: Volume 1 😏"
Fresno State will be much better next year. For all the talent on those Tark teams, they seriously underachieved! We only had one NCAA tourney win during the Tark era, and I'm not ever sure it's still on the books. So lets not pump up those days and trash today so much. 23 wins next year. Go Dogs!
I was at this game. Most of the team was in my sociology class... well they were enrolled in that class, I never saw them but for the fist day. Go Bulldogs! '98
@collegefootballrulez Yep yep we got a new coach. I hope he does better than Cleveland and brings a fan base back to the Save Mart Center. That would be cool.
The glory days of Fresno State Basketball. I miss these days. Good times man. Good times. Fresno State basketball stinks these days. It's as obsolete as it can get.
I've been watching games since 1981.. that team had every tool to win a national title without a doubt

@calsonic1 Absolutely true. Like Alimoe had once said cats had him feeling like Jordan back in the hood so he felt he didn't need to go to college
Dang, this was back in the day! I still have a Courtney Alexander jersey.
Great plays, in a sick atmosphere. The crowd was eating this shit up! The pass at 1:20 was classic skip.
Hot Sauce is awesome, but Rafer is OG!

Rafer waaaay better, had a role on the Heat in the L. HOT SAUCE NEVER SNIFFED THE L
I was at this game! I miss those teams. I was never more emotionally involved in a basketball team like I was with Tark's.
Fresno state needs help now, they can’t even fill up the arena anymore like this , very sad to see
That was good but not like the Red Wave days under Boyd Grant.
Raefer going and 1 in a real game
I miss Tark, rest in paradise coach..🕊️
This brings back childhood memories for me
FSU had a great run while tark was there. A lot talent rolled through there because of him
They had big runs with Coach Boyd Grant too!
Fans going wild man
sickkkkkkkk! thanks for not adding crappy music.

ALIMOE 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
damn he could ball and fresno state look like they had a good team back then

You See The Coaches Reaction To The Pass At The End
Skip 2 My Lou Street Game Rose The Crowd For About 5 Minutes
these where days when we had a real team, tark had a min of 2 players a year hit the NBA
Miss this kinda of basketball noise. I remember this game like yesterday
coach Tark was the man. he gave alot of black kids a chance they never would have gotten. ashame ppl hated him for that. NCAA stayed on his ass.
No one hated him for giving black kids scholorships or a chance at a college education.
@@anthonyharp7696 I'm not sure who would hate a College Coach for giving Black Kids a Scholarships.
Skip deserves his flowers, cause him leading that And 1 movement he made basketball fun for a lot of kids coming up
They should do a documentary on this team

Go Dogs!
Love and miss my coach 🦈 !!! the best ever….. him John Chaney and John Thompson!!!
The coach like that move was craaazy.
what happened to Terrence Roberson?
Tark was such a great coach
Fresno was best under Tark!
We need to go back to selland. We can.
The thing is Sellend Arena is Very Old. The SaveMart Center is Bigger.
That finger roll messed my whole head up.
I was at this game. Most of the team was in my sociology class... well they were enrolled in that class, I never saw them but for the fist day. Go Bulldogs! '98
Lmao!
That pass was FUCKING INSANE!
@Wyndamn True that would have been a great squad to have.
Most definitely.
WHOA...a great ball handler for sure...he had the defender shook at the end there ha
wow man everybody loving it
He really had a chance to be a great nba guard back then
Who?
Yea, who?
They (Fresno) win that game ?
The coach excited
Any other coach on that last dish: "Cut it out. Simplify the game."
Coach Tark: * smiles *
Nothing but love.... He allowed him to play his game
tremaine fowlkes looks huge
Crenshaw HS alum..
Damn man if only alimoe took the his game more serious smh
Alimoe was supposed to be on this team as well
back when fresno state basketball actually meant something
They ain't good. Since 2010, They only made 1 appearance in the NCAA Tournament.

I heard Powell didn't qualify and is going the JC route. Maybe we'll be able to pick him up after two years but I doubt it.
The glory days of Fresno State Basketball. I miss these days. Good times man. Good times. Fresno State basketball stinks these days. It's as obsolete as it can get.
Well that team is different now. They now play at SaveMart Center. They ain't popular. They don't have a lot of people comming to their games.
Good, but actually the glory days were with Boyd Grant.
@@TroyBraiden very true. I was alone in the 80’s but I began watching Bulldog basketball 🏀 when the Bulldogs had Ron Adams as the coach.
@@TroyBraiden my favorite player during the Coach Grant days was Mitch Around. Great memories of those years
@@bosconian901 I agree! Loved Mitch Arnold!
@ 1:20 NO HE DIDN"T!!!!!
1:20 Damn.....
Oh baby ladies and gentlemen skip to my lou
@cmqguy Close in pronunciation though, its actually ALIMOE and your right that would've been one hell of a SQUAD!!!
Tark and Alston, boom!.
1:20 classic
Tark had a Shot at Marbury too.. He almost came to FSU
Just another day at the playground
Even Coach was tweaking
@cmqguy wtf FSU Basketball is awesome to watch. Way better than that game with 30 fouls in a minute.
@murkhim504 agreed bro
🙏🏿🙏🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
He didn't even play in NCAA.
Herren was much better
Then who?
Way better than Alston
@@bryann9481 herren was good but not better than skip its a proven fact
D-BRAZY omg.. Herren was wayyyyy better. Your facts are wrong.
@@bryann9481 i cant see how your really trying to have this debate wit me smh seriously
7/2/19
Whets CHRIS HERREN AT...DURFEE HIGH FINEST.....
Lsu won this game tho lol
No they didnt, FS dropped like 90 I believe. Besides, no player on a losing team would get that type of reception when they get subbed out
lmao nice try
