THIS DAY IN GOPHER HISTORY- DECEMBER 15, 1984

[Nomellini]

Minnesota 57 at Oregon 53
Gophers rally from 13 point deficit in 2nd half. A guard from Ohio has 28 points and secures win with 6-6 foul shooting in final 2 minutes. He will go on to be a draftee of the Mavericks. He is currently #7 on the all-time Gopher scoring list. Can you name him?

 

[Doc Gopher]

Leo: My guess is Tommy Davis but I think he was from Maryland not Ohio.

 

[XMan]

Pretty sure Tommy Davis is right. He had a nice shooting touch.

 

[brucekaupa]

Yup, Maryland.

 

[Lincoln gopher]

He had a decent career in the CBA and Europe. I remember he was among the leading scorers in the CBA a year or two.
