[Old School Hound]

Back to Corbin's Marion Cluggish, who led Corbin to the state title in 1936. He was a very dominating presence in stature and performance on the basketball court. You didn't see too many  6' 10"  dudes with his skill set back in the thirties.  In leading the Hounds to the title in '36, he scored something like  61 points, which may not seem like a lot until you consider that games, especially state tournament games, had much, much lower final scores back then than they do now.  It wasn't unusual to have a game finish with both teams in the teens.  Marion scored close to 60 % of Corbin's points in their state tournament title run.  An exceptional athlete, "Big Clug" also played football for UK.
