Hubert "Geese" Ausbie was one of the more famous members of the Harlem Globetrotters. Lots of folks know that fact. What they might not know is that he played his college basketball at little Philander Smith College right here in Arkansas.
Why was he called Geese? Because there was already a Goose on the Globetrotters, the legendary center Goose Tatum (who incidentally was also from Arkansas).
