All George McCloud needed was a change. The arrival of Pat Kennedy as head basketball coach at Florida State was just what he needed. With an unusual switch from forward to point guard, McCloud became
one of the finest players in FSU basketball history. After posting only average numbers is his first two seasons, McCloud, a 6'6" native of Daytona Beach, Florida, would blossom his junior season and become one of the nation's top scorers leading the Seminoles to back-to-back NCAA Tournament appearances. McCloud was twice named to the All-Metro Conference team and earning Most Valuable Player honors as a senior following the 1988-89 season. George would finish his career as the Seminoles' second all-time leading scorer and as a finalist for the John Wooden Award which recognizes the nation's top player. A lottery pick by the NBA's Indiana Pacers, McCloud enjoyed several outstanding seasons with the Pacers and currently continues his professional career.
