The UNLV Runnin’ Rebels under coach Jerry Tarkanian were the O.G. Fab 5 before the Michigan Wolverine’s infamous starting squad.
The Rebels were hated across America as much as Mike Tyson. Can you imagine how the story was posited when the Rebels faced the Duke Blue Devils in the 1990 NCAA Championship?
The ‘bad guys’ won the title.

New York City leads the nation in the re-establishment of Jim Crow laws aimed at the disenfranchisement of Black people.
The public school system is designed to fail these kids at a young age thereby arresting their development and learning capabilities long before they enter high school. The resultant is that less Black kids enter specialized schools which can prepare them for the future and most Black kids opt out of the public school system altogether.
The next phase is the criminalization of Black youth within their communities by arresting them for minor offenses such as marijuana possession and loitering. Even on the public housing properties where they reside. More Blacks were stopped and searched by the police in the previous three years than in the fifteen years proceeding those three.
All this is almost making Giuliani’s time as the chief executive of New York look like the golden age for Black youth.
My brother WIGGZ is a lifestyler extraordinaire. He created the website Show Ya’ LO and he travels far and wide to preach the gospel of the lifestyle.
WIGGZ fell thru the other day for one of our SFU drops featuring New Balances because he thought we might have had our wires crossed on the style number of the NB hiking boot. We love the NBs here at DP.com and we love that New Balance has retro’d their heritage styles.
Here are some images of the OG NB hiker which just went for $51 ($36 bid + $15 S/H) on the eBay system. That was a steal. I hope that WIGGZ was the winning bidder. These joints are boss. And peep the official Vibram soles. New Balance was nothing to fux with back in the day.
