Tallbaby21 Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 Is the guy who sits across from the visitors' bench in the #4 Gregory jersey on here? Is that really an Amos Gregory jersey? Also got a laugh searching for Amos Gregory and coming across this article from the Lawrence paper saying his signing vaulted us to #10 in the nation for the 1992 class. http://www2.ljworld.com/news/1992/jun/12/class_11th_best_in/ "Recruiting expert Bob Gibbons has rated KU's class Darrin Hancock, Chris Davis and Julian Winfield 11th best in the country and second best in the Big Eight. Gibbons tabbed Nebraska's recruiting class tops in the Big Eight and 10th best in the U.S. Nebraska vaulted in the rankings after corralling 6-8, 260-pound Amos Gregory of Aquinas Juco in Tennessee. Gregory is so talented some schools in the Southeastern Conference tried to persuade their football staffs to award him a scholarship, just to get him on campus. Tennessee, for one, had no basketball scholarships to offer. Other top NU signees included Ron Boone, a 6-5 guard out of Salt Lake City, and Eric Strickland, 6-4, of Bellevue, Neb. One has to wonder if Strickland, an outstanding football prospect, will someday be tempted to play for Tom Osborne at Nebraska. . ." Quote

Not sure what the jersey looks like...but could it be a Randy Gregory jersey?? Quote
49r Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 I've seen him at Gate 25 before the games. Quote
CrazyforNUHOOPS Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 The dude is a doctor, I believe. Very eccentric. He owns several old, obscure players' jerseys. Quote

#GATA Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 He is a doctor. I'm still waiting for my Lue and Petteway stitched jerseys to be finished. Quote
jimmykc Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 Someone post a photo of this mysterious doctor. His eccentricities and proud wearing of an Amos Gregory shirt make me think that he may actually be Doctor Who. Quote
Handy Johnson Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 I'd put down some fat stacks for a red Andre Smith #40 jersey... Quote

hhcmatt Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 Someone post a photo of this mysterious doctor. His eccentricities and proud wearing of an Amos Gregory shirt make me think that he may actually be Doctor Who. He's at almost every single game on the leather courtside seats. As he's not an especially tall guy the jerseys are comically large as well. roscoe 1 Quote
jimmykc Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 dimes: This doesn't help since I don't make the live games now. Can someone describe him a bit more vividly i.e. fat, thin, bald, age, etc. I'm just curious since I probably would know him and am not going to "out" him online or anything. If he lurks here he can send me a message. Quote
Huskerpapa Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 He sits right in front of me. He has various jersey's and is a pretty cool looking fan...I have seen him "visiting" with various referee's as well. Quote

jimmykc Posted January 22, 2015 Report Posted January 22, 2015 I do not believe this gentleman is a physician from Lincoln. Perhaps he comes from Omaha and uses the jersey to cover his sweater vest. He looks like Tom Crean to me. Quote

AuroranHusker Posted January 22, 2015 Report Posted January 22, 2015 Looks like he's doing the running man to me, Norm. There's a video out there somewhere in cyberspace of Walt running back on D after Benny Parker had hit that floater in double-OT vs Cincy... it is hilarious. He's got his knees pumping like no other. Here it is: Quote
