On January 23, 1972, with 36 seconds left in the game that pitted the home team Minnesota Golden Gophers verses the Ohio Buckeyes turned ugly as Ohio’s center Luke Witte was fouled hard going up for a layup. Minnesota’s Corky Taylor quickly helped Witte to his feet only to knee him in the groin. An ugly brawl ensued. This event is consider by many sport historians as one of the most embarrassing moments in college basketball.

Shameful this is the only way these 2 teams can get any attention.

I think if you go through the comments on this video, it just completely validates Simmons and Connelly’s idea that this incident would’ve started an internet firestorm if the internet had existed back then.

My wife & I were in a bar having a drink and Corky Taylor came in- I couldn’t remember who he was, but we talked to him a bit- really nice guy- pretty funny too.
He was a kid then-…………Not that it was the right thing to do, but wow, don’t be such a redneck.
