The next Morris Peterson....Drool...

If Knight and Polk come as advertised and Calhoun comes and comes as advertised the Orr OAR(Of a Revolution) might be very very nice.

Wow!! I started looking at the bottom of the rankings. When I didn't see him from 25-10, I started over. Great to hear.

The hallways at AA are nowhere near large enough for a head that size...

Calhoun is a nice player but the chances of him qualifing are slim to none. Nobody else persude him because of his transcipt. He is in the same shape as the beloved Lionel Sullivan. If it all works out than great but he's down 30 with about 10 to go in the game.

Say what you will about Dayton, Wyoming, Eastern Michigan and Western Michigan, but they're hardly "nobodies."

Southfield’s 6’5 wing Austin Calhoun ’08 committed to Bowling Green U. a few weeks after these games.
Nate Thurmond and Butch Komives will be thrilled.

NWLB, not so much. :wink:
