OK, the game has gone on long enough.  I am keenly aware Chamberlain and Pierce attended KU.  Pete, and apparently others, seemingly fails to realize is Pippen did not playat the U of A.  He played at Central Arkansas, which at the time was an NAIA school and is located in Conway.

If that's true, than your school is pretty dishonest for claiming him. Color me not surprised.

Scottie Pippen, University of Arkansas grad and NBA great.  Wilt Chamberlain and Paul Pierce, KSU grads and NBA greats.

I might read this for awhile and see if I can figure out if this is full of parody and sarcasm or if you really believe that.

I believe Scottie Pippen is a U of A grad as much as you (and I) believe Chamberlain and Pierce are KSU grads.

I guess this was an attempt by Pete at humor, or maybe Pete is just a dumbass?

Did Scottie Pippen disown U of A or something? I wouldn't blame him, honestly.

University of Central Arkansas.  He started out there as a six foot team manager that was a pretty good HS player, and took an 8 inch growth spurt but kept his guard skills.

:rolleyes:

I've seen your guys' pregame video featuring Pippen.

I also saw Charlie Weiss on the KSU sideline during the Cotton Bowl. :grin:

Don't think so.  You have probably confused him with Scotty Thurman.

That's an incredible story. It's almost just like when Michael Jordan got cut from his freshman basketball team in high school but then practiced hard and got good. No wonder those guys made great teammates.

I think you might be confusing Charlie with Mark Mangino, and he was on our sideline in Miami. Common mistake.

Nah, no way.  Might confuse Mangino with Ralph Friedgen (sp?) but not with Weiss.  It was Weiss no doubt.  Wasn't Weiss named coach-in-waiting?  I bet he hopes Snyder doesn't stick around as long as JoePa did.

Weiss is not capable of standing or moving without the aid of a cane or a rascal. I just have a hard time believing Snyder would let somebody drive a rascal around on his sideline and if Weiss had enough energy to lean on a cane for 4 hours, he probably wouldn't have the weight problems that he does. I don't believe your story, is what I'm saying.

It's true and the Scooter Store was a sponsor of the Cotton Bowl.
