Yes. He was a highlight during a very low time of Iowa Basketball. Also quite a few missed dunk attempts during that time too. But the good ones were fantastic.
I always felt like injuries held him back. When he was healthy he was fun to watch.
Eric was a phenomenal athlete. Came into his own during his senior year. Was a underrated defender that year too. Would have been a very good football player if he’d went that rout.
He comes from a very athletic family - both parents were very good HS athletes. Really great family. He represented Iowa well. Led Iowa to the NIT finals, didn't he? I think Iowa lost to a really good Baylor team in the finals that year.
Correct. Well I guess technically Aaron White and Roy Dev led the team but your point remains
That Baylor team was crazy athletic. That little point guard they had was awesome

Crazy to think about the trajectory of Baylor and Iowa from that point...
Actually hung out with him quite a bit when I moved to Dubuque after college. He was best friends with one of the people I met down there and hung around with. I haven’t spoken or seen him in years but I can say he was one of the most humble down to earth high level athletes I’ve met. It was also nice to have him as a wingman at bars downtown
He was the only senior on that team, the lone remaining player from the Lickliter years. I wish that he'd had all 4 years with McC.Correct. Well I guess technically Aaron White and Roy Dev led the team but your point remains

Remember when he made the game winning shot in the state tournament for Wahlert? That was amazing.
I remember for a brief shining moment, May was thought to be perhaps the next big thing at Iowa. Unfortunately, he was just your average, garden variety player.
All of those Harlan players just turn and watch it swish through, the absolute worst way to lose. Eric May was an unstoppable force that senior season at Wahlert.
