What year did he play? Was he a Senior with Rob Lock? Any info would be helpful.

Thanks

His senior year 1986 which was Eddie Sutton's first year at UK. That would have made him a senior with Kenny Walker. I think Lock's senoir year was the 1988 season.

Roger Hardin really got his jump shot working, his senior year. He really suprised me by how good he played his last season. Everyone was careful not to take their eyes off the game, you never knew when he would throw an alley oop to Kenny Sky Walker.

I remember that Hardin came from Indiana (Valpo area) but never heard what happened to him after graduation.

I see Rob Lock every summer. Evansville has an annual Air Show and Rob and his dad have an open cockpit bi-plan that seats four. They give air rides around the city (for a fee of course). I think they spend most of the weekends in the summer hitting the air show circuit.

:cool:I will always remember Roger's last second long range jumper to beat LSU in Baton Rogue.

For some reason (some would say age), I forgot that Roger was Indiana's Mr. Basketball in 1982 and a McDonald's All-American.

Thanks for the information. I didn't know Roger was Mr. Basketball and a McDonald's All American. He is coaching my sons fourth grade basketball team this year. He seems like a hell of a guy and a great basketball coach.

:cool:Tell him he's remembered in Colorado.
