Career

Phelan played for the DePaul University Blue Demons from 1943–45, playing on the 1945 NIT Championship team before enlisting in the Navy. He returned to the team from 1947–49, playing forward and back-up center to the man voted the best basketball player of 1900-1950, George Mikan. Mikan had a scar on his elbow made by teeth he knocked out of Jack's mouth in a practice the day they left for the NIT Tournament. Jack played part-time from 1951-1955 as a fill-in player against the Harlem Globetrotters. They were variously billed as the Chicago Majors, the Philadelphia Sphas, the Boston Whirlwinds, the KC Monarchs, and the House of David, among other names.

Phelan went on to a career as a salesman and manager with the Nalco Chemical Company. He now resides in Bradenton, Florida.
