Thx to @KimMulkey for donating $25K to @LATechSports towards a fund in naming/constructing a project to honor Leon Barmore. THANKS!!
Great!
I thought the tone of Mulkey's comments was totally out of place in context of the hall of fame setting. In addition, factual incorrect on numerous comments- Karl Malone donated $$ for floor, thus his name attached to it. Scotty Robertson along with F. Jay Taylor(called him Jay) have died- usually have things named for you after death. Nothing named for Jackie Moreland. Not questioning at all something will need to be named for Leon someday. Just thought the way she went off was inappropriate. Donation could have been made without all that drama.
some will complain no matter..like I do at times...I think Tommy knew about this...read the article..They have been talking for months
“(Tech) just named a building after Jay Taylor. I think Scotty Robertson got Memorial Gym named after him. I think Karl Malone has a floor named after him,” Mulkey said. “Leon Barmore is in the Naismith Hall of Fame. So, what I’m gonna do, if (Tech president) Les Guice is here, which I know he is. It’s time for all of you — there are a lot of big dogs in this room who are Louisiana Tech people — it’s time for you to do something for this man on that campus. I don’t know if it’s a building. I don’t know if its a statue. I don’t know if it’s a street. But I’m gonna do my part and donate $25,000 to the fund that starts it, because it’s ridiculous that there’s not something on that campus named in honor of Leon Barmore.”

Least fences are being mended
does the Techsters' locker room need remodeling? what can Tech name after Barmore?
