Does anyone know if the mbb program endows it's own scholarships fully instead of the athletic department. (13 total ) The women have endowed scholarships, but not enough to cover the full cost of 15.

Third place as a junior and 4th place as a senior, I believe.

3rd as a soph and 4th as a junior.  In his senior year, 1966-67, UND lost in the first round of regionals.

Here's an interesting tidbit:  In 1966-67, the NABC DII All-American 1st team included future Knicks Jackson, Walt Frazier, and Earl Monroe.

Personally I always felt Phil could have been more kind to UND after all his success. I know he did not like the Sioux nickname, but to my knowledge he never really did anything special for the school.  Maybe I'm just not informed.  If I'm mistaken I'm sorry.

I think we probably have reached the generation that doesn’t even know Phil existed, to be honest. From my knowledge, Phil’s done very little to acknowledge he went here, so why would we memorialize him?
