Two Sport Stars

I don't get how someone could write this article and include Tim Duncan for swimming or Michael Jordan but not list Dave Logan. Logan was a three sport star at CU. He was drafted in the first round of the NFL, NBA and MLB draft. Charlie Ward is another guy I don't understand not being on that list. Ward won a Heisman and then played several years in the NBA.

Logan was the real deal. There were years at CU, after he left, where he would have been their best basketball player on the roster.

It'd be an interesting debate on who's the best two-sport guy at OU. The most recent one is Kevin Bookout. Others I can recall were Mickey Hatcher (baseball and football), Bobby Jack (baseball and basketball), Bud Hebert (football and baseball), Cale Gundy briefly (football and baseball), and Lee Hover (football and baseball). Dean Blevins also played basketball for a couple of years when he was OU's backup QB.

The best 2 sport star at OU is Ryan Minor, at least as far as I can think of.

Rickey Brady had a chance but he didn't play basketball long enough to realize his potential.

Geez, how could I forget Minor ( :facepalm :facepalm )? I'm at home today and can see an 8x10 of a photo I took of him on my "Sooner wall."
