John Wooden lived 99 years!

[heavyd]

What a fantastic life. One of the greatest sportsmen ever - transcended sports in every way.

We lost a legend this evening.

[The Poet]

College basketball is in a poorer, sadder place today. Rest in peace, John Wooden.

[The Poet]

And have you heard this? Richard "Duke" Llewellyn, chairman and co-founder of the John R. Wooden Award, also died yesterday at the age of 93.

It must be a weird and sad day in LA.

RIP Coach

Asked what his greatest accomplishment was, he said " The day I got Nell to say yes. "

John and Nell Wooden, together again, Rest in Peace.
