Dwight Bo Lamar X-Move 360

[Duggie35]

That short video of only 5 or 6 shots doesn't even scratch the surface of Bo Lamar's carreer, but should easily demonstrate why the #10 should never be worn by another Basketball player at UL. This is just a SMALL bit of evidence for those on this forum who were too young (or not even born), to have had the good fortune of seeing this great player play. The same can be said of #14 & #24, Marvin Winkler and Andrew Tony.

My wife and I were students during the glory years of USL basketball, and it was an amazing party! Students would start lining up in the early afternoon for seats and by tip off there was hardly breathing room. Blackham was as roudy and mean a snakepit as there was. Former Northwestern coach Tyne Hildebrand said that he had seen just about everything in Blackham, including rape and murder. Lamar was magic, but as Sports Illustrated said, he may not have even been the best player on the team. Their vote for
that went to center Roy Ebron. Great fun, great times, sad ending.

_ Great clip, great player. I was in Memorial Gymnasium in Ruston in 1972 when Bo put 51 up on us in an amazing performance. Thanks for bringing back some memories. _

I drove to Ruston for that game (my cousin was Offensive Coordinator for LA Tech back then and got a tour of Tech's facilities). Bo had 51 points and I seem to remember him coming out of the game with about 3 minutes to go and throwing out his multiple wrist bands that he wore to the fans. We had some GREAT games with LA Tech back then. The USL v. LA Tech games were the best. Remember particularly the games when Mike Green was playing in a packed Blackham. We, as students, got to Blackham a couple of hours before each game to get our seats. It was magical back then.

_ It would be nice to see a player perform on that level of achievement in any sport again! _

My older bother Bobby got to see him unload against UD (Univ of Dayton, Ohio) I think his junior year, he scored something like 42 pts and lived up to all the billing SI was giving him that year...it could have been his senior year...throwing up 30 foot rainbows at will...I did not get to go, I just heard of his remarkable feats...we wanted to watch one of our hometown heros....Steve Green (of Fairborn H.S. fame) who fed the ball to Lamar at USL
