Bo Outlaw - Jay class of '89

Bo Outlaw, Jay class of '89, played in the NBA for 15 years, most recently with the Orlando Magic. Bo did it the hard way, going to junior college before UH, then playing pro ball in Spain and the CBA before making the NBA. Bo was well-respected and highly-regarded as THE BEST hustler in the entire NBA. Bo's hustle enabled him to earn over $35 million playing for the Clippers, Suns, Grizzlies, and Magic. Career highlights included a triple double one unbelievable game and also a 29 point scoring explosion one magical night vs Dallas.

Bo is the perfect example of how hard work and a never-say-die attitude can bring great success. Since Bo used to be extremely lean and not particularly tall, he almost got cut from the basketball team his freshman and sophomore year of high school. Charles "Bo" Outlaw quickly grew over a half a foot in high school and outworked his teammates and competitors. Bo and the Jay basketball team dominated the competition. His senior year, Bo led Jay to a 38-0 record before losing to Clear Lake in the 5A state championship game.

With the help of Coach Floyd's comic relief, Bo had his Mustang jersey retired in 2002, the same year Jay brought home it's first state basketball title.
