IUFLA Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 My old man hated Purdue... Pulled for them in the 1969 NCAA Championship game though... He said something like, "root for them one time and the sonofa***** missed 15 in a row." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John S Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 Don’t forget Rick Barry, in college and NBA H of F. Great shooter, averaging 35 pts @ Uni of Miami and used under hand FT, making 90% in nba. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t hate them, but not a lot of love here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 35 minutes ago, mrflynn03 said: Just Dean Smith. Got a chance to work with Bobby Plump on a few things over the years. One of my favorite lines of his was always this. Glad we got a chance to borrow the 4 corners in 1953/54 since Dean invented it in the late 70's. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steubenhoosier Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 Bleacher Report article from 2012 ranked the top 25 long range shooters of all time in college. Dated, for sure but I don’t know if there has been anyone in the last 11 years who would crack the list. 5. West 4. JJ Reddick 3. Mount 2. Larry Legend 1. Pistol Pete Alford was #7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
