What a truly talented man.  To achieve the level of success he did in basketball and music, is quite impressive.  RIP Wayman.

Sad sad sad

Always enjoyed Wayman's offense (not so much his music, but I respect that he was talented)

When I first got into b-ball
I remember seeing a pic of W.T.
in that light blue Kings jersey.
I thought "What a cool name!".

Another victim of cancer, sad.
RIP, Mr. Tisdale.

  • Be the posts you wish to see in the world.
Saw a story on him a year ago when he lost his leg - his attitude was sunny and optimistic still.  Shame he couldn't fully recover.  Cancer sucks.

RIP Jazzman.

Appreciate the mention. This is a very, very sad day in this state because a great ballplayer and a better man has been lost. Our Lord got himself a good one today.

If you met Wayman, you never forgot the smile and the inate way he had to make everyone feel like his friend. What a marvelous man he was.

He had a sweet jumpshot and was a tremendously entertaining player for the Billy Tubbs/Mookie Blaylock era Sooners, and translated that into a solid NBA career as an undersized PF. Not to mention his music career. RIP, Wayman.
