The Oklahoma Sooner legend dies this morning at the young age of 44. Wayman Tisdale had been battling bone cancer and succombed this morning at approximately 8:00AM. Tisdale was a 3 time All-American basketball player for the Oklahoma Sooners, then went on to play in the NBA for the Indiana Pacers, Sacremento Kinds, and the Phoenix Suns.
As great as his basketball career had been, his first love was always his music. He delved into learning how to play the base guitar and became an accomplished artist with several jazz albums released.
Tisdale will be remember as a great role-model, humble to a fault, and a great human being. Rest in Peace Wayman.
