Was his girlfriend with him? Probably not are you would have no doubt made a comment about it asuming he is stll dating Hanna.

That looks like a big 10-4!

Sitting side-by-side doesn't quite have the same effect s them standing side-by-side has.

He was alone. But he was picking up some burgers and dogs and said he was heading to the lake with his girl

I'd like to get my hands on the weight training they're doing this summer. Rauno looks as if he could squat a house, bench press a Toyota Corolla, and deadlift a fire hydrant out of the ground. No doubt he has made some monsterous gains over the past few years

I'd love to have a half hour in his office looking at all the photos he has on his wall

I hear Fred is in town playing pick up with the guys. That's nice because Landry is at a camp somewhere. Supposedly the "God bear" can hold his own and he's a great passer. I didn't hear much else.

I played baseball with his son Tyler for the Wichita Sluggers. He is a tremendously talented artist. The top right picture is one of Darren Dreifort and Tyler actually DREW that picture. I was convinced it was a photograph the first time I saw it. If you're ever able to take a visit to his office you should check out the notes the players write to Kerry. The man is a living legend.

He is indeed. I had the good fortune to catch up with Fred for just a bit. Times like that are tough. It's fantastic seeing him and hearing how his family is doing and all the great things going on in his life but it's a bit melancholy at the same time.

It's a reminder of how damned lucky we all were to have him here and what an amazing young man he is. He's worked so darned hard and overcome so much adversity. I've never known anyone that's deserved success more than Freddy.

And I doubt I ever will.

Did we ever figure out if Poor bear was able to participate in pickup games with the team over the summer?

I believe he can and has been participating.

Hey 02, I know others on the Forum have told you how much they appreciate your time and effort but I wanted to thank you as well. You do a fantastic job for us on the forum and i really do appreciate the info you provide. I think all of us owe you a beer!

I understand Fred is in town and I was wondering if we had any unofficial visits that might be around at the same time. Any idea?

I saw him at the practice last Mon afternoon. He moves around well, but he also looks like spending a year at Sunrise Academy will serve him well before he becomes a frosh at WSU in the Class of 2018. My recollection is that his basketball experience is rather limited since he was inititally cut but then he had a big growth spurt.

Anybody can play in the summer pickup games. That's all they are - just pickup games. It's just a bunch of guys who happened to get together and play some hoops. High school kids, recruits, current players, NBA guys, guys from Euro ball. Heck, you and I could play in those games if the guys organizing them thought we were good enough.

Even though the games are on campus, it's treated pretty much like it was a bunch of guys who met up at the Y or found some gym to play in. Just so happens this group of players has access to CKA.
