Wow, so much for the "We wish him well in his future endeavors" canned quote. Dambrot sounds a little butthurt.
I remember the transfer not being a smooth one. All the timings mentioned in the article seem off. Mentions of "this season", "last season" but the article is dated in May of '07 and if I remember correctly, Bubba had to sit until winter quarter started in 2007. His first game with us was a Friday night home game against Akron (Jerome Tillman with two huge alley-oops). Real live wire O Zone in that one - yours truly won a Hungry Howie's pizza in a halftime promotion.
I remember Bubba drew the ire of Ohio fans with his play early on with his chucking 30 footers. Sometimes they'd go in. He suffered some injury his senior year and Bert Whittington started in his place. When he returned for the final stretch of 2008, he was a whole new player. He won us that George Mason Bracketbuster game which remains one of my favorite memories in Ohio fandom.
