It was as if nobody else had a chance. The Rams were returning several key players from their state championship team. Two of the top players in the state were back in 6’5” Jarvis Williams and 6’4” Karl Godine. The scary thing about this team is even without Williams and Godine, Kashmere would have been one of the top teams in the state. To follow the 1975 season was to follow Kashmere. The numbers they put up were staggering and soon became one of the top teams in the entire country. Many knowledge followers of the game were making strong comparisons to the great Wheatley teams of the past. Would Kashmere lose any games? Would they repeat as state champions? Was it all hype or were they really as strong as advertised? These were the questions that the ‘75 season would answer in exciting fashion. I was living in Houston at the time and the Rams were always in the newspaper. This was one of the high points for high school basketball during the 1970s. The Arlington Classic in early December on the campus of U.T. Arlington set the stage for Kashmere’s first real test of the season. Ft. Worth Dunbar(19-12), W.T. White(18-11) out Dallas, Houston Worthing, Dallas Roosevelt, Dallas S.O.C., Houston Wheatley, Denton, and Ft. Worth Paschal would present a challenging field. Kashmere opened against a strong Arlington(27-10) team that would win their District. The Rams totally demolished the Colts 104-59. Ft. Worth Dunbar was next up and lost by twenty 102-82. In the semis, W.T. White played Kashmere close losing only 73-63. For the Longhorns, Walter and Alex Lewis led the charge and would be named all-tournament. In the other bracket, Dallas Roosevelt beat a tough Houston Worthing team and Albert Jones 90-81. The Golden Bears of S.O.C. destroyed Denton 102-49. Houston Wheatley advanced and played Ft. Worth Paschal, who had received a first-round bye. The Wildcats dropped Paschal 78-75 to advance to the semis against S.O.C. Coach Gales team had beaten rival Roosevelt 86-73 in the 2nd round. The semi-final game between Houston Wheatley and Dallas S.O.C. was much anticipated, and the outcome got everybody’s attention, not by who won but rather the score. The Golden Bears beat the Wildcats 116-80, in what was being called the worst defeat for Jackie Carr’s team in many years. Dallas W.T. White surprised Wheatley in the 3rd place game 89-75 and Houston Worthing beat Arlington Sam Houston in the consolation finals 80-76. Worthing’s star player was the top junior in the state, 6’7” Albert Jones. The championship game, which was a rematch of the state championship game of a year ago, Kashmere strength and experience showed as they took down S.O.C. 105-98. Karl Godine and Carl Belcher were named all-tournament along with Wayman Lister of S.O.C., Jones of Worthing, Stanley Carr of Wheatley, 6’10” Allen Windor of Arlington High, sophomore Michael Watley of Dunbar and Ronnie Newton of Arlington Sam Houston. Ft. Worth Dunbar had a very young team and would be the team of the future under the leadership of Coach Robert Hughes. In the Jaycee Tournament in Houston, Houston Kashmere defeated Houston Yates for the second year in a row 87-80 to capture the tournament title. In 2nd round, Kashmere thrashed Galveston Ball 95-54, with Karl Godine showing the way. His 27 points came from a wide assortment of shots. Houston Lee won their two first round games 53-50 against Houston Williams and 54-46 against Houston Waltrip. Waltrip had previously beaten Houston Lee prior to the tournament. James Harris of Houston Lamar set a single-game Jaycee scoring record with 49 points in last year’s tournament. Harris filled it up once again with 33 points against Hancock, Mississippi in a 114-70 route in the consolation bracket. Houston Furr also advanced to the quarterfinals with two wins over Houston Sam Houston 65-49 and Houston Westbury 97-65. Houston Washington knocked off Houston Worthing in the first round 69-68, but lost in the 2nd round 72-61 to Houston St. Thomas. Houston Reagan eliminated Houston Milby 59-58 in overtime, while Deer Park beat Houston Wheatley’s junior varsity 87-60. Wheatley’s varsity was in Israel playing a holiday tournament overseas. John Falling scored 25 points for Deer Park and Frank Dishongh added 18 in Deer Park’s 64-60 win over Houston Lamar, in first round action. James Harris of Lamar was held to only 15 points in the loss against Deer Park. Houston Yates defeated Houston Madison 85-83 in overtime and Houston Jones 78-69 in their 2nd round match-up. James Anderson and Ricky Edwards led Yates in scoring against Houston Madison with 15 points each and Clarence Hill was top dog for the Lions against Houston Jones. Yates had a fine 14-3 record, as they entered the quarterfinals. Houston Lincoln advanced beating Houston Davis 101-88 in a great game and dropped Houston Sterling 73-68 in a 2nd round game. The Panthers of Lincoln improved their record to 15-3. For Lincoln, Edison Smith led the charge with 26 points against Houston Davis, and Fred Brown poured in 24 points for Houston Lincoln against Houston Sterling. In quarterfinal and semi-final match-ups, Kashmere eliminated Houston Lee 87-50 and Houston St. Thomas 87-58. 6’5” Jarvis Williams showed his all-state credentials against St. Thomas, hitting 22 points with a dozen rebounds. Carl Byrd of Kashmere ripped the net for 19 points from the corner, and Godine was limited to just 14 points because of early foul trouble. Against Houston Lee, Byrd had 16, Godine 15 and Williams and Henry Small finished with 12 each. St. Thomas had beaten Houston Furr 77-58 to advance to the semis. Gerald Jozwiak had 23 points for St. Thomas and Pete Kesser hit 22 points. Against Kashmere, Kesser had 19 points and Jozwiak had 15. The Houston Yates-Deer Park semi-final game was a rematch of the San Jacinto tourney finals in which Yates won 94-90 in overtime. In that contest, Deer Park’s John Failing scored 45 points and had 30 rebounds. How is that possible in a 32 minute high school game? John was definitely a baller. In the rematch, Failing was double and triple teamed and was limited to only 15 points, as Yates came away with a 73-62 victory. Seven of Failing points came from the foul line. With the loss, Deer Park’s record stood at 18-3. For the Lions of Houston Yates, they improved their record to 16-3, Clarence Hill came off the bench and ignited his team against Deer Park with 16 points, while James Anderson and Johnny Donahue each hit 12 points. Travis O’Banion led Deer Park with 17 points. In the quarterfinals, Yates proved too much for Houston Lincoln 92- 89. James Anderson led the Lions with 24 points and Edwards finished with 20. For Houston Lincoln, Jerrell Miller was high man with 28 points and Edison Smith had 22. Deer Park beat Houston Reagan 67-52 in the other quarterfinal game. In the championship game, Karl Godine was spectacular, scoring 34 points and coming away with a dozen rebounds, as Kashmere defeated Houston Yates 87- 80. A crowd of 4,000 watched the Rams improve their record to 24-0. Kashmere led at halftime 52-49. Madison Lane followed Godine in scoring with 21 points, while Carl Byrd had 11. Jarvis Williams scored only six points but pulled down 16 rebounds. For the Red and Gold, Clarence Hill led the way with 17 points, Edwards added 17 and James Anderson finished with 15. Yates and Kashmere had met previously in the semi-finals of the “Super 16” tournament in Huntsville, with the Rams topping the Lions 110-87. Deer Park won the third-place game defeating Houston St. Thomas 71-62. Once again John Failing proved to be unstoppable scoring 28 points, with 12 coming in the final quarter. Gerald Jozwiak added 22 points for St. Thomas. Forest Brook took consolation bracket defeating Houston Lamar 76-68. Forest Brook finished the tournament with a nice 18-3 record. Forest Brook had four players finish in double figures in their win over Lamar. Barry Ross had 21 points, Michael Walters finished with 14, Calvert Shelley had 13 and Zachary West had 11. James Harris had 30 points for Lamar and was the top scorer in the tournament with 131 points. All-tournament members were, Karl Godine, Jarvis Williams, Carl Byrd of Kashmere, Pete Kesser of St.

  • Bill Cartwright
    Bill Cartwright Bill Cartwright is a winner! He was in his basketball career, he is in his business career and he continues to be a winner in his family life. Cartwright was a 7’1” NBA center was a dominant physical presence for 3 teams. He was drafted in the 1st round of the 1979 NBA draft, #3 overall, by the New York Knicks. He made an All-Star Game appearance in his rookie season and was named to the All Rookie First Team. He was named team captain of the Knicks but 4 separate fractures to his foot began to slow him steps. Bill was traded to the Chicago Bulls in 1988 and it was here that he fully established himself as a presence. He was once again named team captain and led the Bulls to 3 consecutive NBA championships in 1991, 1992, and 1993. In 1994, he moved on as a free agent to the Seattle SuperSonics where he spent the final season of his 16 year playing career. In 1996, Bill rejoined the Chicago Bulls as an assistant coach and won two more NBA championships with the team in 1997 and 1998. In 2001, he took over the Bulls’ head coach where he remained until 2003, coaching a team that had been stripped of its best players. He moved on from Chicago to be an assistant coach with the New Jersey Nets and Phoenix Suns before spending the 2013 season coaching in Japan and 2014 as head coach of the Mexican National Team. Cartwright has firmly established himself in the business world as the owner of a car dealership and a restaurant and he recently divested himself from a successful security services firm.

    XAVIER BASKETBALL – NEWSLETTER S.E. February 5, 2006 Follow Me By MICHAEL SOKOLOVE Ethics exemplar. And soon to become, in marketing terms, "the Michael Jordan of college coaches," according to his agent, David Falk (who is, yes, Jordan's agent). Krzyzewski (pronounced sha-SHEF-ski) has been doing about 30 corporate speaking gigs a year for about $50,000 a pop. (He plans to cut back on the number of speeches while raising his fee to $100,000.) He is host of an annual conference at Duke's Fuqua School of Business. The university, in an unusual move, put its basketball coach's name on an academic center, the Fuqua/Coach K Center of Leadership & Ethics, and made Krzyzewski an "executive in residence" with the expectation that he will be able to become a professor whenever he stops coaching. In addition, Duke Corporate Education, which consults to businesses, has developed a program that uses Krzyzewski's methods as a teaching tool. PricewaterhouseCoopers has so far sent about 500 senior associates and managers — most of them "partners in the making," as they were described to me — to study Duke basketball in a "metaphoric context" to help them reach personal and professional goals. That irritating American Express commercial is blaring All of this is easy to ridicule because Krzyzewski is, again during the college basketball telecasts. The after all, a mere coach — and in some quarters, scrappy Polish guy from Chicago is standing in front of especially among rival fans in the bitterly competitive his bench, his feet firmly planted on the holy hardwood Atlantic Coast Conference, a reviled one.

  • The Inside Story of One Turbulent Season with Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls Pour Chaque Appareil
    Pour Kindle The Jordan Rules: The Inside Story of One Turbulent Season with Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls Sam Smith’s seminal, New York Times bestselling “eye-opener” (The San Diego Union-Tribune) on Michael Jordan and the 1990-1991 Chicago Bulls team—perfect for fans of ESPN’s hit documentary series The Last Dance. This is the book that changed the way the world viewed Michael Jordan, while delivering nonstop excitement, tension, and thrills. The Jordan Rules chronicles the season that changed everything for Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls. After losing in the playoffs to the “Bad Boys” Detroit Pistons for three consecutive years, the Bulls finally broke through and swept the Pistons in the 1991 Eastern Conference Finals, on the way to their first NBA championship. Celebrated sportswriter Sam Smith was there for the entire ride. He reveals a candid and provocative picture of Michael Jordan during the season in which his legacy began to be defined, and seeks to figure out what drove him. The Jordan Rules covers everything from his stormy relationships with his coaches and teammates and power struggles with management—including verbal attacks on general manager Jerry Krause and tantrums against coach Phil Jackson—to Jordan’s obsessions with becoming the leading scorer, and his refusal to pass the ball in the crucial minutes of big games. Jordan’s teammates also tell their side of the story, from Scottie Pippen, to Horace Grant, to Bill Cartwright. And Phil Jackson—the former flower child who blossomed into one of the NBA’s top motivators and finally found a way to coax Jordan and the Bulls to their first title—is studied up close.
