I highly recommend this deep article on Michigan Coach Red Berenson. It mentions former DU coach Murray Armstrong as playing a key role in shaping Berenson's future, but more than that, the article gets into the importance of character in athletes and coaching - really fascinating.It is one of the best articles I've ever read in a student newspaper.

Front page story from today's Denver Post.

I came across this little piece on Murray Armstrong that appeared a year or so ago on a Regina Pats history web site:

http://www.reginapatshistory.com/200...-57-wcjhl.html

Some of the tidbits I didn't know about Murray:

-Murray once turned down an offer to coach the New York Rangers
-I knew that when he signed at DU, Murray not only guranteed a NCAA title in three years to his athletic director (he did in in two years) but I didn't know that he said he'd resign if he didn't do it.
-DU started him at $7,000 a year in 1956. In today's money, that's about $56,000 - quite a bargain!
