Austin Carr went on to play for Utah and Houston. The original Big Dog (as opposed to Glen Robinson).

Rod Woodson also played one or two seasons for the Raiders before retiring.

Bingo, Pb- well played!
Zamboni, methinks you are thinking of Antoine Carr. Great college player in his own right. I believe he led the NCAA in scoring and rebounding one year, which I don't recall having been duplicated since although I'm not sure about that.

JJohns - you are correct. Antoine was the original Big Dog, though I don't remember where he went to college.

Ruh-roh, clicked on the link & my PC immediately shut down and re-booted. Must be cowbell-allergic.
