Welcome to The Holy Land of Hoops

Hey, i noticed the passing of Frank Deford. Great sportswriter for many years, with Sports Illustrated, NPR, then more recently on HBO with a regular segment.

Great long Deford column from 1981 on Bobby Knight:

Deford was one of my favorite writers along with when he was on TV. Really sad news- lost a great writer- and what seemed like a genuinely good guy.
