Skip Prosser

We lost a very good man today. I lost the only coach I have ever considered a friend. Skip was 56. I wish I had more time to write about him now, but I have a radio show in 15 minutes... we'll talk about him tonight on WLW, after 8 pm... drink a guinness in his honor tonight... read a good book... love your kids...

Terrific coach and good man. I am a UC alum but I always had enormous respect for the job Coach Prosser did at X. What a terrible tragedy.

Ironic you would use his death to hit Bob over the head again. Especially since they were friends.

...i have stopped in hap's once or twice a month for about 20 years...and skip was always a good guy to chat with over a guinness...rarely about basketball...
i'm one of those people that have always been a uc and an also an xu fan...but he knew the uc-x game was the only game of the year i wanted uc over x...but such a trivial thing as that did not matter in the big picture of respect...

Skip was easily one of the classiest men in basketball. He'll be missed.
