12-15-96  Fran's first year.  77-39 loss to Minnesota
Pretty sure I remember Mahoney coaching that game and Shawnelle Scott was quoted as saying he never heard of Minnesota before the game.

I remember Scott saying that. Minnesota is such a wonderful city with so much to offer, I was shocked to hear Scott be so hard on them, especially after they trounced us. Mahoney was truly one dumb f. Even dumber than Roberts.

That was the Minnesota Final Four team that smothered a lot of teams defensively . . .  and we were one of them. I can't believe it was that many years ago already. But the ugliness still lingers in my mind.
