Well deserved!

[Huskerpapa]

Extremely well deserved,  He also continues to be a great ambassador for UNL and the basketball program.  Hard to miss him at Husker games

 

[Norm Peterson]

Long overdue.

[colhusker]

Surprised he is not there already.

[KZRider]

Congrats! A slam dunk choice!

[Handy Johnson]

Saw him play for the Charlotte Hornets vs. the Twolves back in the day, and who could forget the headline in the OWH when we beat UMKC. "Kangaroos can't stop Hoppen" congrats David.

I remember the era of Kent Pavelka constantly invoking the phrase, "looking inside for Hoppen".  So glad that he was one of the very good Omaha players that didn't get away.

Congrats Big Dave!

Was there an OWH article calling for this that I missed.

I see what you did there

I swear to god that David was in the Hall for years.

 

I guess if your jersey is in the rafters, I just assumed he was in the Hall.

Sliver, this is the new Husker Athletics Hall of Fame. Brick-laid "honor" plaques have been built to the east of Memorial Stadium near the 'columns.'

Okay I was really more confused about this whole deal.  I was out of town when it was all in the paper so didn't know what was totally going on.

 

Thanks!
