Jim Harrick Jr.

Post by LU 86 »

Junior passed on Tuesday at his home in San Marcos after battling a glioblastoma brain tumor for 2 1/2 years. He was 58.
Jimmy was an asst for Larry Farmer at LU. Junior was always entertaining and loved hoops. I remember him and his future wife Amy going to see my daughter Hannah in the Joffrey Ballet production of the Nutcracker. Amy was cracking up when Jimmy asked her when the singing was going to start. He really was an original and will be missed. Glad we were friends.

Sorry to hear and sorry for your loss. What I remember of the Farmer years is the assistants seemed to have a lot of input. Hard to judge a lot of past regimes as you wonder what they would have done with the resources basketball currently has.
