Sharing this article that I had the pleasure to write on the great, legendary Larry Gay.
Larry was a superb basketball mind, and had a huge heart for helping young talent. His love for others was always on display.
Rest in peace, Larry.

28 years ago tomorrow (10/6), Matthew Shepard was beaten and left for dead — tied to a fence in Wyoming. The only part of his face not covered in blood was two white lines running down his cheeks from where his tears ran dry. His death ignited a fight for equality. You don't have to be gay to be a supporter. You just have to be human. #bekind #missionaryofmercy
A #GRCbasketball@WinCity_BBall legend who starred for Clark County and then watched his son Dwain lead GRC to the quarterfinals in 1986 and his grandson Montez lead GRC to state championship in 2026. I think of the Gays as the first family of GRC boys basketball. RIP.
Rest in peace to former Louisville men’s basketball assistant coach Larry Gay, who passed away at the age of 75.
A Winchester, Kentucky native and standout at George Rogers Clark High School, Gay went on to play college basketball at Florida State, where he was a three-year letterman from 1971-74. He was a member of the Seminoles’ historic 1971-72 team that advanced all the way to the NCAA championship game, where Florida State fell to UCLA and John Wooden.
Gay eventually returned to Kentucky and became part of another storied college basketball program, spending seven seasons on Denny Crum’s staff at Louisville from 1989-96. During his time on the Cardinals’ bench, Louisville made six NCAA Tournament appearances, including a trip to the Sweet 16 in 1993.
From Winchester to Florida State and eventually Louisville, Gay spent a significant portion of his life around the game of basketball and made an impact at every stop.
Our thoughts are with Coach Gay’s family, friends, former teammates, players and everyone whose life he touched.
Rest in peace, Coach Larry Gay. 🕊️
@dotsonc I recommend the White Sox. They’ve always been my AL team. So, since I decided I was checking out on the Reds until they get competent ownership and management, I have simply devoted more time to the Sox and they have turned it all around this year with a fun young team. Go Sox!
A ride with a name as powerful as The Beast at Kings Island needed an equally memorable identity.
National advertising firm Lawler Ballard Little developed the now-famous logo depicting clawed, hairy hands ripping through wooden boards.
The logo quickly became inseparable from the attraction.
Is The Beast logo the most iconic roller coaster logo ever created?
@DonHelbig Summer of 1981. My first ride on The Beast. I am the short kid looking at the camera in nervous excitement as we waited in the long line. I remember the Reds Dugout shop in that area of the park.
My new album, The Age Of Everything, is out now.
I wrote these songs in London, found out what they were live on the road across the East Coast of America, and brought them home to Manchester to record. They became the most cathartic songs I’ve written. The energy and tension of the city runs through the whole record. It’s sharp, fast and full of possibilities.
I’m proud of where this record took me. Now it’s yours.
Listen and buy now
