I’ve probably posted this before but in my first week of practice he came over to me, put his arm around me, and kiddingly asked, “are there any scouts here watching me?” From that time on, he was my favorite player. I followed his pro career as best I could. I was saddened to see him in a wheelchair after his stroke.

He was a great player and a greater person. You remember people when they show kindness toward you and Bingo showed that to me and I’ll always remember that.

Rest in Peace, Bingo.

Wish I had known him too.

I saw every game he played for TU at home and with my late dad several road games. He was an amazing player with a great shot. RIP

Bobby "Bingo" when paired with his fellow forward Rob Washington formed what may have been the greatest forward combination in the history of TU basketball! The Year with Pressey and Brown was a close 2nd.
