A real gentleman, and a wonderful guy. I always remember the game at Niagara the year that the Eagles won in the KAC when Baron's shot at the buzzer was ruled too late. That season NU had a strong team, and they really went after Billy and knocked him to the floor on several occasions. Despite the physical play Baron had a great game and the Griffs were victorious. One of the finest college games I've ever attended. Best of luck in the future. Perhaps he and his brother will get in the coaching business. Go Griffs

He and his Dad made Canisius basketball relevant for a couple of years. I spoke with him at a local camp this summer, and it was obvious that his playing days were coming to an end. He is a great player and ambassador for Canisius. Best of luck in the future to Billy.

2nd greatest Griff ever after Larry Fogle? What a player and such a joy to watch.

Meeks has to be in the #2 discussion.

They were great also,along with Meeks and Ron Peaks. Fogle will always be first,but the Meeks, Barley and Wise teams will always be my favorites.

Andy Anderson says, "Hold my beer."

So does John Morrison.

Smrek? Way back, McCarthy and a few others? We can probably put maybe a top 5-10 All-Time together, then it becomes harder and harder. The game and the talent evolves, but in their time---.
