It's definitely Bill Walton. I heard from someone who went to the Rose Bowl that he was at the game.ducksrock wrote: Gotta be BW.....with that height and in company with Peter Jacobsen, I am thinking it is BW....Why he would be wearing an Oregon jacket, I do not have a clue....Anyone have anything concrete?

Re: Brett Kingma transferring?
I think everyone knew Rid was going to be good. His ball-handling was exceptional, he had a lot of confidence, and he started as a freshman. I would not put Kingma in the same category, pr even on the same planet in terms of potential. Anyway, it looks like Kingma weeded himself out, so no use going on about what could have been.oregontrack wrote:rid smacked into the freshman wall going 100 miles an hour in '01. he was okay, and he certainly looked like he had potential, but winning pac-10 freshman of the year doesn't really say anything by itself. it was kind of a weak class overall, and he wasn't even the best freshman on the roster. luke jackson probably should have clinched freshman of the year after his triple double up in seattle, but for whatever reason ernie really limited his minutes that first year. rid was on the floor all the time.

I think it was to Peter Jacobson on a bet on who'd win the Pac-12 Championship game. Needless to say, it was a bet Walton had almost no shot at winning.justducky0 wrote:He was wearing an Oregon jacket because he lost a betducksrock wrote:Gotta be BW.....with that height and in company with Peter Jacobsen, I am thinking it is BW....Why he would be wearing an Oregon jacket, I do not have a clue....Anyone have anything concrete?RanDux wrote:Hey uostudent. who is the tall dude in your picture?

Best of luck to him. I only saw him play, in person, once. At the Vandy game. Dude has a pretty shot and he hustled, which is more than I can say Jabari did. Best of luck wherever ya end up.

Sounds as definite as possible outside of something official from the UO itself:
