It was billed as the "Game of the Century" and Elvin Hayes responded by playing the game of his life. The 6-foot-9 front-liner with the trademark turnaround jumper would go on to a Hall of Fame NBA career, but the signature performance in his basketball life came on a January night in 1968. That's when Hayes and the University of Houston ended the 47-game winning streak of Lew Alcindor and UCLA before 52,000 at the Astrodome in the first nationally televised regular-season college basketball game. Hayes was the headliner at the 2013 National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame induction ceremony Sunday night. The other honorees included players Xavier McDaniel of Wichita State, Marques Johnson of UCLA, Tom McMillen of Maryland and Bob Hopkins of Grambling; coaches Gene Keady and Rollie Massimino; contributors George Raveling and George Killian and the Loyola-Chicago team that won a national championship in 1963. The Ramblers were the first NCAA champion with at least four black players in the starting lineup. Read more http://espn.go.com/mens-college-bas...73/elvin-hayes-headlines-2013-hall-fame-class
