John Wooden (1994)


John Wooden stands next to his medallion while on a tour of the Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, Ma., in May 1994. Wooden, then 84, was inducted in 1960 as a player and in 1972 as a coach and was the only man to be inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame twice. Wooden, college basketball's gentlemanly Wizard of Westwood who built one of the greatest dynasties in all of sports at UCLA and became one of the most revered coaches ever, has died. He was 99.
