Coffee with the Legends | Episode 2: The Glory Years

SAN FRANCISCO – University of San Francisco Men's Basketball is excited to announce the introduction of an exclusive new miniseries: Coffee with the Legends. The weekly web series will be released in five parts. You can watch part one here.  Part two debuts today, as the group discuss the glory years of the '60s and '70s.

In February, three USF men's basketball Hall of Famers, Mike Farmer, Ollie Johnson, and Bill Cartwright, attended the USF Men's Basketball game against Pepperdine to witness the retirement of fellow Hall of Fame member Joe Ellis's number 31. 

Before the game, all four legends sat down with Executive Senior Associate Athletics Director, Frank Allocco for a rare roundtable opportunity with some of the finest basketball players the historic Dons program has ever produced. The first episode of the series focuses on the various paths that brought all the legends to the same place at USF. Future installments will cover their glory years, legacies, giving back, and the significance of jersey retirement.

You can see this, and all the previous episodes of Coffee with the Legends, by visiting the USF Athletics Youtube Page.
