The Logo has passed at 86.

He was the Lakers when I was growing up and my father had season tickets to the Lakers when it was Jerry, Goodrich, Chamberlain, Baylor, Counts, Erickson, McMillan, Hairston...

Met him years ago with Mitch Kupchak in San Diego. They were having dinner at the table next to mine and I had to say hello as quietly and unobtrusively as possible.

Zeke from Cabin Creek.

When I went to high school , during the basket ball season the gym teachers would show old 16 mm films of the glory days of WVU basketball - Jerry West and Hot Rod Hundley.  Never met the guy but my brother in law who works for the university did and got a couple copies of his autobiography signed - he passed on a copy to my dad and I intend to get it some day.  Was actually a pretty interesting story.
