One of the greatest ACC images of all time was when State had 5-5 Monte Towe dribble between the legs of 7-2 Tommy Burleson for a program cover.
It underscored that the brilliant 1972-1974 State run unquestionably had a bit of a circus atmosphere.
Between Burleson, Towe and the stunning David Thompson, who did things that no one had seen in college basketball before, or at least not on national TV,
Burleson also had a surprisingly fiery side as he demonstrated with some classic matchups with Maryland and he more than held his own against UCLA’s great Bill Walton.
