Bob McCoy

He was born in Longville, Louisiana, and attended Beauregard Parish Training School in nearby DeRidder.

[3] Pistons head coach Charley Eckman asserted that "even such a highly regarded prospect as McCoy" would find it difficult to make the team's 10-player roster and McCoy ultimately never played in the NBA.

[1] He returned to DeRidder to become a teacher and basketball coach at George Washington Carver High School from 1958 to 1970.

[1] He also taught and coached at DeRidder High School and in Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana.
