Greatest MU nicknames

[Oregon Warrior]

Affirmative.

Unless Homer used the nickname on multiple players, "The Sherrif" was Jon Harris. I still remember the first time I heard it in our house on Michigan Street.

Cloud Piercer

Jim Dudley, no?

He did use it on multiple players, which I always thought was pretty weak...and I love Homer.

I do have a funny Gary Brell story from his days in Alaska.

It was either in the late 80's or early 90's and my brother worked at city owned recreation center in Cordova, Alaska.  They hosted a large basketball tournament that was attended by teams from distance, including Anchorage.

My brother got a call one day from a guy asking. "Is Goose's team playing?  If they are, we aren't coming".  My brother asks him who Goose is and the guy responds "Goose who played at Marquette".  My brother wasn't a Marquette fan and the only name he can come up with was Earl Tatum because of Goose Tatum of the Globetrotters.  The guy responds, "No, Gary Brell".

My brother later found out that Brell had become something of a cult hero in men's basketball tournaments in Alaska, not only because his teams almost always won, but also because he was a talented player who was a pain in the ass to deal with on the court.

Goose Brell is a cult hero wherever he goes. Last time I saw him, which was quite some time ago, he still was the star of the show. My daughter is living in Alaska, and I told her the most famous ball player living there is from the near west of MKE. Goose Brell will always be a cult hero at my house.

Glad someone remembered the "Cloud Piercer". James Dudley was from
South Milwaukee, Wis. Don't forget the "Black Swan" Bob Lackey.

#31 occasionally posted on this board. Would be interesting if he chimed in now and again.

It has been quite some time since we have heard from 31 on here. With my daughter out there, I thought about him quite a bit of late. He was one of a kind.
