Steve Dunlap Comments & Highlights 1975
Production credit: MSN
Sort of a year end summary video, here you'll see some short (very short) clips of the Richmond, Penn State, and Syracuse games. Steve Dunlap gives something of an interview about teamwork and determination, but I found myself being distracted by his gaudy shirt to really pay much attention. You may have to watch this one twice.
