  • The Magic Man in college. Before he went on to become the greatest passer of all time with the Lakers, Earvin Johnson was the gargantuan PG for the Spartans, who won the national title in 1979.

    CZcams has existed since 2004, and yet Magic Johnson still doesn't have a highlight video showing off his skills in game, much less one just dedicated to his college career in general. MerkinMuffy has made a fantastic Larry Bird tribute, there's that awesome "Michael Jordan Begins" two-parter that shows off all of MJ's skills at UNC, and Pete Maravich has at least 3 good videos. Kareem lacks a good highlight video, but that's to be expected of a player from the 60's. But Magic played at a time when college basketball was far more popular than the NBA, so there's really no excuse for there to be as little footage of Magic available as there currently is (the 1979 title game and one full game against Purdue that's coaches film). So I decided to make a Ballislife-style video tribute to the Magic man. When I have thousands of dollars to shell out to Footballvideos.com, I can gather coaches film and make a NPZ kind of video showing off his skills in game. If you haven't seen NPZ's Magic Johnson highlight video, you really should. It's a masterpiece and the definitive Magic highlight video. With all of that said, I hope that you enjoy the video, and as always, please let me know who you would like to see next.

    Thank you for posting this! I was lucky enough to see 5 games live at Jenison Fieldhouse when Magic was a Spartan. Had the pleasure of meeting Magic during the Championship year as well. We knew he was a once in a lifetime player- and were so happy to have him as a Spartan. He put Michigan State Basketball on the map- even some of the lean years they were part of the conversation thanks to Magic. As far as the NBA- he could have played anywhere and cameras and fans would have followed. But he was born for LA and showtime. Magic and Kareem made the 80's great- and it was even tough to watch Magic lose to the Pistons- who I love dearly. Thanks Earvin for the joy you show us while you played the game, and, the joy you gave us.

    I saw about 10 of Earvin Johnson's games in junior high, about 30 in high school and about 40 in college, including the Magic-Bird game in Salt Lake City.

    It's hard to believe they packed that many people into Jenison. 12,000 people inside an old brick building had to be ear splitting.

    Its funny how in today's game they talk about "unicorns" when in fact they mean another Magic Johnson. Because there is no one like him. No one. And there won't be another one like him.

    If Magic would have played college ball with a shot clock and three point shot he wouldn't have lost 11 games in two years and would have earned two National championships
