Sara Shepard article on KU's own John B. McLendon, Jr., Naismith mentee, hoops coach extraordinaire and "Father of the Fast Break".
A new documentary on Coach McLendon is set to air this month on PBS.
Created and directed by KU alum Kevin Wilmott, it is on KCPT @8:30 pm on Monday March 13. I do not know yet if it will be shown on other PBS stations around the country (I know I can't find it on KTWU in Topeka).
Hope you can find it out there on your local PBS station as March heats up!
But at least you can read the above linked article, and check out his
Wikipedia
page.
GREAT stuff!
ROCK CHALK!
