My picks....
Norman Dale = Fran

Merle = Bobby Hanson or Gatens

Buddy = Andre Woolridge

Jimmy = Val B

Everett = Ed Horton

Strap = Helmers

edit: Ollie = Casey

Rade = Haluska

Whit = ???

I was thinking Skinner for Ollie and as much as people will Hate it Lick has to be coach Dale based off his past and Marble sr shooter with son Devin (forget sons characters name).

Edit to read lick has to be coach based off style of play, unwavering principles and relationship with fan bade.

You all must be to young to remember Bart Casey. He was the last person off the bench in the Tom Davis era and the place used to erupt when he came in. There were times he had trouble getting into the player entrance because security did not believe he was on the team.

Neat article on him: News on the Move · Where Are They Now?: Iowa basketball’s Bart Casey
