I saw this in my FB feed. The Fort has had a great legacy of BB talent, particularly in the last 15-20 years. As a proud CLHS alum, it's cool and surprising to see we've had the second most players on the list.

I remember a lot of those players, some personally.............good stuff! Summit City Pride!!

I still remember watching Northrop's Walter Jordan in the 1974 Indiana HS title game against Jeffersonville and soon-to-be teammate Wayne Walls. Classic old black & white special.

Wow! That just brought back some memories!!

Yeah....and it's funny how certain things stick with you from your youth.

Speaking of 1974, I still remember also watching what (still to this day) to me was one of the best, most riveting games......the National Semi-Final between NC State and UCLA. UCLA seemed to have the game won on a couple of occasions.....went to a second overtime.....ended UCLA's 7-year title run from '67 - '73.

On top of that, I was allowed to eat in front of the TV, which in our family was a big deal at the time.

As BBG would remind me, I am "showing" my age.

When Northrup won state all the city schools got the day off. Even the Catholics!

I saw Greg Gary at the Bball preview dinner a few weeks ago. I told him I went to South Side and I was very proud of Davis. He asked me if John Flowers went there...I said yes I think so in like 1980 but that it was before my time. Guess I have more gray hair than I think.

Chris Kramer is missing, but Adam Liddell made the cut.

Didn't Flowers start out at Indiana and then transfer? UNLV maybe.

I think James Hardy was the all time SAC scoring leader before Thomas broke it. He also lead Elmhurst to State Runner up. Probably should be on the list ahead of Colclasure

I believe so but he graduated before I was born so not sure.
Would Kramer be eligible since he went to Huntington North?

Hell, if they are going to include Warsaw area............I didn't think I saw Jeff Grose mentioned. Am I blind?

For that matter, Rick Fox, though he didn't play his senior year.
