Wallace "Wah Wah" Clayton Jones (born July 14, 1926 in Harlan, Kentucky) is a retired American professional basketball player. He played in the National Basketball Association from 1949 to 1952 with the Indianapolis Olympians.

He also holds the unique distinction of being an All-American under both legends Adolph Rupp (basketball) and Bear Bryant (football) when both coached at Kentucky. He is the only player to have his number retired in both football and basketball at Kentucky. At the University of Kentucky, Jones was a member of the Phi Delta Theta Fraternity.

For some reason I didn't reconize the name then it hit me when i saw the first line of you post. Thanks for the reminder. :eek:
