If Dick Bennett pulls this off, he belongs in our sports hall of fame.. Rumors are flying across our blogs that this is the real deal.. I can see why you guys wanted him.. What a guy..:) <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> April Fools? Porter in Pullman? By Devin Rokyta on Wed, Apr 1, 2009 Sports Take it for what it is, but rumors are circulating that former NBA player and coach Terry Porter was spotted at WSU today with Dick Bennett. I have talked to a couple of sources at the university and nobody has been able to confirm the rumor. Interestingly, Porter has ties to the Bennetts. He played as college ball at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point under, you guessed it, Dick Bennett. I also remember a conversation early this season with Tony Bennett about Porter. Bennett had nothing but praise for Porter and thought he got a raw deal by being fired by the Suns despite having a winning record. Porter tried to bring a defensive presence to the high-flying Suns, but that apparently didn’t sit well with star players like Shaq and Amire Stoudamire. Needless to say, ownership sided with its stars and Porter was sent packing midway through the season with a 23-18 record. dnews.com
