R.I.P., Joe McKnight. He was at Southern Cal at the same time young Samuel was an undergrad, and we all saw him play a couple of times over at the Coliseum. Also, we remember cruising around La-La Land with the games airing on the radio, with play-by-play legend Pete Arbogast always insisting on calling him ‘Super Joe’ McKnight. Continue reading →
