He's always mentioned and should be. He's also one of the biggest assholes you will ever meet. When I was in college I went to the same gym as him in Cincy. The weight room was connected to the bball courts and you had to walk through the courts to get to them. One day he was shooting around and his basketball rolled in front of me when I was walking past. Naturally I just picked it up and threw it back to him. He proceeded to get in my face and scream at me, dropping the f bomb several times. Now I wasn't much of a bball player but could hold my own. So instead of backing down my buddy and I picked up a couple of others and played him and his boys full court, and won. In the process Big O continued his tirade, mostly vs his teammates. I thought that maybe he was just having a bad day, but it turned out it was just the way he was. He was the same a-hole every other time I saw him.

yep what a dick
I sat next to him at the Final Four in Indy in '97 for the Sat games, six hours. Towards the end of the second game after not bothering him for one second and during a timeout, I pulled out my program and asked him to sign it. He looked me square in the eye and said 'no'. Nothing more, nothing less.
I mean Jesus Christ, how hard is it to sign the cover of a program? Would have taken 2 seconds. Dick.

How old was he at the time? Good story.
