I am editing post #1 and researching the teams in backwards chronological order. Right now I have names for the 2000s through 1970s.

After setting names, depth charts, heights, and weights, I'd like to do head model and gear edits for as many players as possible. You can contribute any info you want.

I will need to go into storage room and find my 80-81 acc yearbook. But I have some taped games of uva and in those games(1981,82,83) Craig Robinson did wear #10 in all of them.

Sorry to the other poster who had him at #45, I wasn't trying to be a smarta**.

Thanks for your help. I appreciate it. If you decide to dig up your yearbook, I will correct Jeff Klein's and Louis Collins' numbers as well.

I'm guessing that BShadows google searched "Craig Robinson + Virginia" and came up with this image of Princeton's Craig Robinson, current head coach of Oregon State.

Thanks. Dug out the yearbook. Jeff Klein was # 23. They had no Collins listed, but had :

Dean Carpenter #12, 6-9, 206, Jr
Darren Cross #21, 6-4, 181, So
Lewis Lattimore #55, 6-9, 217, Sr

Awesome. I updated the post. If you ever come across Collins' number let me know. Here are his career stats.

Also, here are some box scores of some games from that season. I don't know if you have tape on any of those games, but if so, you could probably find him.

Okay, I'm done researching names and numbers now. Here's a recap of missing player info. If anyone has info on these teams such as internet links, old programs, media guides, or game film, help would be appreciated.


These players are missing correct jersey numbers.

1980 Louisville:
SG Steve Clark 6-5 FR

1977 Marquette:
PG Mark Lavin 6-0 FR

1962 Cincinnati:
SF Bill Abernethy 6-5 SO

1959 California:
SG Al Buch 6-2 SR CA
PG Denny Fitzpatrick 6-0 SR CA
C Dick Doughty 6-8 JR CA
SF Jim Langley 6-3 SR CA
PG Bernie Simpson 6-0 SR NE
SG Jerry Mann 6-2 JR CA
SG Earl Shultz 6-4 SO CA
PF Tandy Gillis 6-5 JR CA
SF Dave Stafford 6-3 SO CA

These jersey numbers need to be checked.

SF #21 Don Brkovich 6-6 FR SG #24 Jaimie Huffman 6-3 SO
SF #43 Gerald Gilkie 6-5 SO
SF #25 Gerald Busby 6-4 FR


These players do not have accurate heights.

1970 LSU:
F #40 Bob Lang (69-70) 1970
G #25 John Carr (69-70) 1970
PG #30 Tommy Hess SO PA
G #20 Tommy Henner (69-70) 1970
F #34 Kent Johnson (69-70) 1970

It's minor but Bill Walton was right-handed. He was, however, very good with the left hand around the rim.

Charles O'Bannon ( 95' UCLA ) was left-handed just like his older brother Ed.

Hank Gather's ( 90' Loyola Marymount ) wasn't left-handed. He resorted to shooting free throws left-handed near the end of his career due to his woes at the line shooting them righthanded.

Thanks for the corrections. I appreciate it.

I'm pretty sure the following were lefties:

Jerry Eaves, 1980 Louisville
Wiley Brown, 1980 Louisville
Cozell McQueen, 83 NC State
Stevie Thompson, 87 Syracuse
