Wayman Tisdale's most recent album release is entitled "Rebound."

Wayman, and his high-top fade, was one of the first Pacers that I ever remember from my earliest memories of the team. I hope he can make a full recovery and keep on living it up with his music.

Man, I hope Tisdale is OK. He's a good guy, even if he did go to a redneck university. :wink:

Still possibly the best I ever saw play in the Big 8/Big 12. He was an UNBELIEVABLE college player. Not sure why exactly his pro career didn't turn out better, although he was a decent NBA player.
