Just wanted to express my condolences on the passing of one of your all time greats, Louie Orr. By all accounts a truly great and wonderful man.

FWIW, our local newspaper in CT had a rather large article on Louie today. Kind of cool as I would not think he would have commandeered such attention.

I live in CT too and read that. It was nice. Louis was BigEast through and through and I don’t think anyone ever involved with that league has anything but mad respect for him.

Appreciated. To a 15 year old Louis and Bouie were really something special that I could look up to and dream. At that point we weren’t overachievers anymore we actually had good players that could win. There aren’t that many truly under the radar kids these days. Louis Orr was one of them and he must’ve shot like 60% from the field. Being a skinny outmuscled HS basketball forward myself, I was amazed that “no shoulders” Louis stuck around in the pros for six years. Loved that.
