Lon will be missed.
Bought a home in Vegas back in January, so I can’t think anyone is really surprised, especially with his son (new UNLV HC) and family being there.
Thanks to him for decades of classy and tough competition.

“With kindest regards to Dr. Forrest C. Allen, the father of basketball coaching, from the father of the game.”
1936 inscription on the portrait of Dr. Naismith, displayed above Phog Allen's office desk at KU.
Class act. I wish all of KU’s coaching foes were cut from that cloth.

Coach Kruger was/is a classy individual and someone you just respected, even though he was a Grape. Best wishes to him in retirement.
