I'm sorry to hear about your dad's passing. I'm glad that you found the film and that it provided a nice moment for you. I believe that there are glimpses of your father in action in the 1981 Big Five film that I also posted on this channel. Hopefully you will see that as well.
Not officially a Big Five member until this past season but always a close cousin. Probably didn't have the success yet when the unofficial Philadelphia "Basketball Brotherhood" was first formed in the 1950's.
My dad passed away last year Keith Parham , it was amazing to hear his voice at the 14 second mark . Thank you for posting this.

Nice upload. Thank you.
Was just explaining to my teenage son how amazing this was… I grew up LOVING the Big Five… this is what college sports should still be.
I've got about 5-6 of these vintage Big Five films uploaded on here. I hope that you and your son get to enjoy them all.
Great model memories as high school kid
Penn quakers ran right into Michigan state with Magic Johnson in the national semifinals
Good thing that footage got left out.
Paul Westhead would coach an NBA championship team just a year after this. Unfortunately it would be against the 76ers.
The Big East Eventually Took over East Coast College Basketball. #BigBusiness
Was Drexel just not good enough or big enough to be part of this?
