    John Murray Dies

    I can't believe none of us remembered to post this. While he didn't do a great job with the hoops program, he raised the level of the university tremendously. Considering that his mentor/protege Mark Nordenberg was performing a similar miracle at Pitt, it was important that we be able to keep up. RIP Dr. Murray.

    In addition to what he did as head of the university, he was the foremost authority on contract law in the US.

    It was strange how he and Nordenberg were both mentors, and proteges of each other, hiring each other at different times.
