On top of those names, legendary coach Roy Williams and Jim Calhoun will also be formally inducted into the NABC Hall of Fame formally after being part of the founding class when the Hall opened in 2006.
This is a star-studded list of both coaches and players during their time in college basketball and these inductees will now live on in college basketball history forever.
Many around the college basketball world are extremely excited to see these candidates get the honor of entering the Hall of Fame this upcoming fall.
Huge honor for Dr. Jerry Krause, who was head coach at EWU from 1967-85, longtime director of basketball operations for Gonzaga men's program and has helped GU women's team in recent years. https://t.co/frAqOjQrWs
