File talk:San Francisco Dons 1954–55 team photo.jpg
Which season is this photo from?
[edit]I've just spent a while confused over which year this photo came from, and after much research, I'm pretty sure it's from the 1954–55 season. The original uploader of this photo tagged it as the 1955–56 season, because the eBay listed they pulled this photo from said the same thing. And the photo also once appeared in the Boston Globe (Holmes, Baxter. "Bill Russell, K.C. Jones treated like ‘Rock’ stars at Alcatraz". October 11, 2014.) captioned as "The 1955-56 University of San Francisco Dons...", though the source of the photo was just listed as "Globe file photo".
However, I think eBay and the Globe are wrong. In a 1963 NCAA basketball program, the photo was tagged as being from the 1954–55 season. Additionally, I found this eBay listing that shows the photo as part of some document that appears to be an original document from the University of San Francisco from the 1950s. The document appears to be titled "1955 Post-Season Tournament Basketball Information", which means it would be from the 1954–55 season. I think it makes more sense to trust sources from the 1950s rather than recent sources, so I believe this photo must be from the 1954–55 season. –IagoQnsi (talk) 04:17, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
