This is a great article about the relationship Coach D has developed with Mr. Washington, and should make all DU fans excited about the future.  Mr. Washington sounds like a really nice man who cares about kids in Puerto Rico and invests his time and own resources in developing them and making their live better.  God bless him.  

I remember a pretty good guard from Puerto RIco in Reuben Montanez,6-2 200 lbs that played at Bishop
Boyle High school in Homestead. He was outstanding,probably should have received serious consideration
on the 100th year team in Duquesne history. Physical,great shooter.
 I think the people of Puerto Rico have  alot of positive feelings to Pittsburgh as their most favorite son ,Roberto Clemente played for the Pirates from 1955 to 1972.It could help Duquesne recruiting there.
Dambrot is working it,I love  his efforts in forming relationships with players,coaches and individuals trying
to make a positive difference in young mens lives.He said his  job was  about people and forming relationships at his press conference. Another good vibe you get about Duquesne basketball.

 

As I recall, Mickey played more since his teams were much less talented than the ones Ruben played on.

There was not much playing time with Jarrett Durham and Moe Barr at the two, but Ruben really rose as a Senior starter on that  Big Train lead 71-72 20-5 team. I still recall a game that he was 10-10 , 20 points with all from 20 feet or better, we were going nuts down at the Arena.

The Iron Dukes of the modern era.......

Hey Ken, maybe it was burned into my mind because we used to almost win all the games at the Arena, I do admit to purposely forgetting many games at AJ Palumbo, lol.......

My wife calls it "selective memory."  Matches my "selective hearing!"
