I believe it was against Idaho State? It was one of the first games of CB soph year. I believe DG hit a game winner...
Anyway, I was standing by the door ready to leave (yes, I was one of those that night) basically...we played like crap and should of left earlier. But as I was watching along the concorse...I saw Fred and his family directly below me. And his kids were playing around and the crowd was thinning out, but he was dead focused on the game and intently looking on, especially during Mac's timout marathon in the last 2 min and despite looking like we were gonna lose.
Even when DG hit that shot, I look at Fred and he was stone faced. I thought at that time, Dang...Freddie never changes. He was probably thinking about what needed to be done on defense, as there was a sec or 2 left. After the buzzer sounded he gave a couple hard claps and got up and left.
For what ever reason, that left an impression on me as he could be a good coach. Just never thought it would be at ISU.
