Good article. Although I was at State during one of his playing years I have to admit I don't remember much about the team. And I did attend a few games. The old brain is rusty in my old age.

Wow Bump. Our Marketing on a National Level leaves much desired. These stories like the time we snuck out to play in the NIT should be our Hoop's Brand.

Watched Larry Fry and Jerry Jenkins play in McCarthy Gym in 1974. The HUMP was starting to be built. Jerry was a typical small forward and Larry was a power forward, even though he was only 6'5". Larr Fry was a powerful force underneath....he could take on players 3-4" taller than him and do well. If he got within 5' of the basket, he scored or got fouled. A lot like Tolu, but much shorter. Jerry Jenkins was a good outside shooter, though there was no 3 pt. line back then. Brings back great memories.

Grew up as well watching him in McCarthy. That was a fun place to watch games as a kid. Also sold Cokes in the stands. Also remember Walter Wright from Morehead, MS. He could play too.

Hopefully Selmon gets our Marketing going after being gutted by the previous AD
