Keeping Up with Old Friends (The Transferred Thread)

[AuroranHusker]

Maybe Cross could take the Akol Arop circular path back to Lincoln, Nebraska. It would, no doubt, be an intriguing reunion, albeit with a different cast of characters (unless Yvan Ouedraogo also does an "Akol Arop" with Kevin Cross). It could happen... not likely, but it'd be fun to find out if Kevin Cross, playing his part on a competent Big Ten team, could succeed at a high level. Count me in, if Cross is 'N' (again).

I’d be fine if he came back.  I liked him when he was here and was kind of surprised when he left.  I did think he would be a better 3 point shooter than what his career percentage has been.

Is there a league higher than the NBA that would be a better fit for him? Feel like his game is too good for the League.

Good for him, that's a fantastic landing place.

Yeah, I like this move a lot for both parties.

With more bulk, this young man could play here...no doubt.  That said, he will do well at Wyoming.  I wish him nothing but the best.

He'll dominate in the MWC I predict.

On a related note, I saw sometime last week that Denim Dawson had committed to Tennessee St if memory serves me correct. Best of luck Denim and thanks for being a Husker!

I hope there will be a parking space for his van in the lot at Allen Fieldhouse.

He has a full-size Winnebago now. . . now we know why, he has a 'home'!

There's fewer tornadoes in Lawrence than in Norman, he should be safe.

All this Braden Frager going to school early talk reminds me that 21 year old Yvan Ouedraogo is starting year 5 at Cal Baptist

Old friends Wilhelm Breidenbach and Paul Mulcahy started at Washington in Mike Hopkin's zone defense. WB did not attempt a 3pt shot.

[AuroranHusker]

I don't recall Mulcahy being an old friend, even as a R.U. foe. Although I would have liked him if he were 'N' in Lincoln. . .

WB: 3 points and 8 boards in 21 minutes. 1-2 from the field, 1-2 from the line. 2 fouls.

Put him in the frenemy column.  Thought it was interesting to note since I'd forgotten he'd ended up at Washington.

I had also forgotten that both of them were there together. Now they can rile up opponents in the last year of the Pac-12 together.
