Most prominent among the new additions to the University of Cincinnati basketball locker room are two lockers honoring former Bearcats Kenyon Martin and Danny Fortson. Each locker, enclosed in glass, has a jersey, warm-up outfit, shoes and a plaque listing the player's honors and accomplishments. I was just kind of trying to do it for our era.
Guys have a lot of pride here.
They know who's been before them. These guys understand the history. I just thought it was the right thing to do. And each locker has nameplates of former players who used that locker. For example, junior Immanuel McElroy inherited the locker used by Darnell Burton, Ruben Patterson and Pete Mickeal.
