Details

Fred Sawyer is an American former professional basketball player. He played collegiately for the Louisville Cardinals from 1958 to 1961. Sawyer was a secondary player for the Cardinals when they made the Final Four of the 1959 NCAA tournament but improved to become credited as the primary reason for the team's success during his junior season. Sawyer's height of 6 ft 11 in (2.11 m) led to an intimidating presence, such as when Western Kentucky Hilltoppers head coach Edgar Diddle remarked before a game that Sawyer was "the biggest man I ever saw" and must be "6 feet 13 or 14". During his senior season, Sawyer made a pledge he would not wash his socks until the Cardinals lost a game – a challenge that survived 12 games.
