Posted Jun 12, 2021
Former North Carolina center and two-time National Player of the Year in 1940 and 1941, George Glamack was said to have had a deadly hook shot with either hand. Nicknamed "The Blind Bomber" because he was so nearsighted, the two-time All-American could not see the basket well, so he shot the ball according to the lines on the court. (Tar Heel Illustrated)
