This week's trivia question: Who was the last SLU men's basketball player to have two words/names on the back of his jersey?

Last week's winner was @thetorch - Let us know what topic you want us to take on in the next show.

It's probably cheating to use CBB reference since I don't know much about the 80s rosters, but is it Abdur Rahim Al Mattin?

ok I need to know who this white smoke is about.

It could also be Mike McCall, Junior (JR). Al Mattin the pride of Inskter, MI, a blast from the past!!

Yeah now I'm wondering if they count Jr. As a 2nd word because does Hughes have Jr. On his jersey?

[Pistol]

To clarify: We're excluding "Junior" and all forms of it. We've had a ton of Juniors in recent years.

My only other thought was Herb Van Deven who was a big time scorer for SLU before Easy Ed in the early 40s.

I feel like I'm missing a walk on or a redshirt transfer somewhere.

Abdur Rahim was a nice rim protector for the early Grawer teams. JUCO product and if I remember he was older, like 24 or 25 when he played.

He had done a four year stint in the Army, I believe, before going onto college.
