Although his listed height of 6-foot-5 was overstated by a couple of inches, Grayer used great athleticism and uncanny instincts to dazzle both opponents and Cyclone fans. He scored 2,502 career points (bettering the school record set by Stevens) and secured 910 rebounds, while starting 124 games. Grayer established 13 school records, including best career field goal percentage (.526). Three times, he was named First-team All-Big Eight and his tenacity earned him a spot on the league’s All-Defensive teams four straight seasons. He left ISU as the fourth-leading scorer in conference history and the Big Eight eventually named Grayer to its All-Decade team for the 1980s along with Danny Manning (Kansas), Wayman Tisdale (Oklahoma), Steve Stipanovich (Missouri) and Rolando Blackman (Kansas State). Grayer was a member of three NCAA Tournament squads at Iowa State and he played on key role on each of them: • He broke the school freshman scoring record (1984-85) and helped the Cyclones receive their first NCAA Tournament bid in more than four decades. • As a sophomore (1985-86), Grayer and Jeff Hornacek led ISU to the “Sweet 16” of the NCAA Tournament (by beating his home-state school and fifth-ranked Michigan in the second round) and a then school-record 22 victories. • In his senior season, Grayer averaged a Big Eight-best 25.4 points per game and tied for the league rebounding title (9.4 avg.). He earned second-team All-America honors from A.P. and third-team accolades by U.P.I.
