Larry O’Bannon Our first Cardinal Rewind that we are bringing you is with former UofL basketball hometown great, Larry O’Bannon. Larry played for the Cards from 2001-2005 and was apart of the Final Four team in 2004-2005. Here is what Larry had to say with us here at Cardinal Sports Zone:
Two of the best to ever play basketball at UofL will have their jerseys honored this season: Lancaster Gordon (1980-1984) and DeJuan Wheat (1993-1997). Gordon will be honored February 6 against UConn, and Wheat will be honored February 26 against Pittsburgh.
