Every year at the SEC Tournament, a former player from each university is chosen and named the schools basketball legend for that year. This year, Larry Conley has been chosen for the honor. Here is hat the University of Kentucky had to say.
An All-Southeastern Conference team member and a part of the 1965-66 “Rupp’s Runts,” Larry Conely has been tabbed as Kentucky’s 2016 SEC Basketball Legend and will be honored at this year’s SEC Tournament, which will be held at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tenn., March 9-13.
A key member of “Rupp’s Runts,” one of the most beloved teams in Kentucky basketball history, Conley helped lead the Wildcats to a 1966 national runneru2010up finish, a 27u20102 record and an SEC championship.
