Dan,
I went to my first FTU basketball game in 1978 with then AD Jack O’leary who was my neighbor. They had a good D2 BB squad led by gunner Bo Clark who’s dad Torchy was the head coach. And you’re right about the original war on I-4. I worked 13 of those 16 games. Do your remember UCFs QB Dana Thysen out of Deland?
I was also there for UCF’s first series win in 1985. Eddie O’Brien kicked a 50+ yd field goal to win as time expired. The press box went nuts and was told to be professional and shut the hell up. The SID for BC-C was pissed. Rightfully so too! Great times!
