Two ex-Hogs land on feet at new schools BY SCOTT CAIN Posted on Friday, May 28, 2004 FAYETTEVILLE — Former Arkansas basketball players Kendrick Davis and Wenbos Mukubu have found new schools. Davis and Mukubu decided after last season they would transfer and had been weighing their options since then. Mukubu said he will reunite with former Arkansas assistant Mike Anderson at Alabama-Birmingham, and Davis is headed to North Texas. Mukubu, a 6-6 forward from Miami, visited Alabama-Birmingham and said he "felt real good about it. And I’m familiar with Mike Anderson. He recruited me out of high school." Anderson’s up-tempo, pressing style of basketball and Mukubu’s athleticism are a natural fit, Mukubu said. Alabama-Birmingham assistant coach T. J. Cleveland, a former Arkansas guard, also is a good friend of Mukubu’s. Mukubu will have to sit out this season but can practice and be on scholarship, he said. He will have two years to play beginning with the 2005-2006 season. Of his two years at Arkansas, Mukubu said: "I loved it. I love the fans. They treated us real good. I enjoyed playing here. It was a great experience." Mukubu averaged 5.8 minutes, 1.2 points and 1.3 rebounds in 24 games last season. Davis, a 6-4 guard from Houston, could not be reached for comment. Like Mukubu, he will have to sit out but will have two more years to play. He averaged 12.7 minutes, 5.4 points and 1.2 rebounds in 25 games last season.

That's easy, Bobby Witt! What future HOF slugger was the 1st baseman for the 84 Olympic Team?

I do not think we should be in Iraq. I do not KNOW the REAL reason we are there. I do not think another American should die over in Iraq. I think that if the al-queda or whoever is going to kill our innocent civilians then we should continue to abuse the Prisoners! I think George W. Bush should be put on trial for his crimes against humanity. I think we all have a right to an opinion because this is the United States of America!
