He played under Wallace Wade, obviously, as he was introduced to the crowd on Saturday, but he preferred playing for Eddie Cameron. You can tell his admiration in this quote.
Clark sums up Duke’s success. “We had some good athletes. We could block and tackle. Eddie Cameron had a lot of charisma. He inspired the fellas to play. We wanted to win for him. We had desire.”
Q "Why do you like Duke, you didn't even go there." A "Because my art school didn't have a basketball team."
