It didn't take long for Jesse Ratliff to find the path to stardom at North Texas, where he lettered in basketball from 1990-91 to 1993-94.
Seven games into his freshman season, Ratliff was inserted into the starting lineup - a role he never relinquished. Four years and 114 games later, Ratliff left as the school's No. 2 all-time scorer with 2,130 points.
After earning freshman of the year honors in the Southland Conference, Ratliff was a three-time All-Southland Conference performer. Perhaps the greatest stretch in Ratliff's career came during his sophomore season, when he combined to score 63 points and grab 31 rebounds in league games against McNeese State and Nicholls Stats, for which he was named Player of the Week by Sports Illustrated.
Although Ratliff was an explosive scorer, he was also a powerful rebounder who totaled 913 career rebounds.
