Who can name any or all of the former players honored last night during half-time?

Can name a handful...it's a shame their names weren't announced over the PA at Timmons like in past years.

Was surprised to not see Chuck Vincent. He's usually there representing my years at Furman. Luther Broughton was there proudly wearing an Eagles jersey. More recent players attending were Daniel Fowler and Geoff Beans.

Speaking of Selvy, ESPN's show Pardon The Interruption has a Selvy in their list of items to talk about today. I am assuming it is Frank Selvy, but could be disappointed. It is on ESPN now and on again at 6:30 and 8:30 on ESPN News.
Update. Yes, it is a very short discussion of the 40 year anniversary of the 100 point game. A picture of Selvy, along with a Diamond F is on the screen. Good stuff.

Are there any former BB players that participate on this forum? Jasper, are you a former Furman player?
