Howard Engleman
Howard Engleman, the second Jayhawk to receive consensus first-team All-America honors, led KU to two Big Six conference championships and an appearance in the Final Four. Engleman led Kansas in scoring in 1939 and 1941. His 16.1 points per game in 1941 was the highest average to date in Jayhawk history. He was a 1940 NCAA All-Tournament team member after leading Kansas to the championship game, and was twice named to the All-Big Six team. Engleman replaced Phog Allen as coach for half of the 1947 season when Allen was ordered to bed rest. The team finished with a 16-11 mark. Engleman's jersey was officially retired on March 1, 2003.
