Message: [QUOTE="Improviser, post: 3604823, member: 10683"] I did not realize when I made the thread that I misspelled Jack' s last name which should have been Melen. And Fred Malan is the other guy. Both played from 1965-69. And, their stories as of 2004 or so are in the UConn Hoops Legends. When I went to UConn, some students writing to the Daily Campus speculated because the names sounded sort of similar, whether they were friends or liked each other. Sort of a humor thing. They did not look at all similar, and did not get a lot of press. Hard working players who did their best. I don't know who was better or worse. The last year they played, the team went 5-19, but probably a collective fault not on any one or two players. [/QUOTE]
