UConn Huskies Basketball

Kenneth (Kenny) Scott '85-86



Transferred from Tulane after they dropped their program due to a point-shaving scandal. Played just his sophomore year at UConn. Jim Calhoun was apparently referring to him in his book "Dare To Dream" when he wrote of meeting with the returning UConn players upon taking the head coaching job at UConn in 1986:

Another kid, I can't remember his name, sort of a funny kid from England, nice but very lazy, came equipped with suggestions.

"Here's what I think we should be doing at UConn," he said.

"We?" I said.

"Yes, here are some things I think we should change...."

The change was him. Gone.

Don't know if he continued his college education somewhere else or not. Played in France in 1992 and 1993, and in England in 1994. In Oct-Nov.'97 he was tested by Furstenfeld of the Austrian league for 3 games, but was not signed.
