    Cliff Meely, one of the best basketball players to ever play at the University of Colorado, has died. He was 65.

    The school said in a news release Wednesday that Meely died at Boulder Community Hospital on Tuesday from complications from a blood infection.

    "Our entire university community mourns the death of Buff basketball legend Cliff Meely," chancellor Dr. Phil DiStefano said in a statement. "He was a valued member of our CU family and the Boulder community, and a life-long supporter of CU athletics who was a fixture at our men's and women's basketball games. He will be greatly missed."

    Meely was born in Rosedale, Miss., and went to high school in Chicago.
