Last year, Kenny George pack the stands and was a ton of fun to watch. We’ll miss him this year.
ASHEVILLE, N.C. — UNC Asheville’s Kenny George, at 7-foot-7 the nation’s tallest college basketball player, might not play this season because of a foot injury.
George had two surgical procedures on an infected right foot and remains in a Chicago hospital, the school said. The senior is not expected to return to school this semester.
He was the Big South’s defensive player of the year after helping the Bulldogs win a school-record 23 games and reach the NIT last season. George averaged 12.4 points, 7.0 rebounds and 3.3 blocks.

The man to the left looks like a midget – oh excuse me – "little person" in comparison to Kenny George.
Such a bummer! I know everyone on campus will miss seeing him around and watching him play.
