Willie Cauley-Stein Wants to Hunt Ghosts

Jason King of ESPN went behind the scenes of the All Access program and got a chance to go to class with Kentucky freshman Alex Poythress, Willie Cauley-Stein, and Archie Goodwin and got to see a presentation by by all 3 freshman.

King’s article is a great read, but this part of the story was funny to me.

Poythress, Cauley-Stein and Goodwin take their seats in the back row of a class called CIS 101. A few weeks earlier, the professor grouped the students in pairs and told them to visit a campus organization about which they had preconceived beliefs to see whether their thoughts were true.

Goodwin and Poythress, who are reporting their findings to the class today, attended a Christian Student Fellowship meeting, where they sang songs and watched baptisms.

“Some of them started crying, including a few dudes,” Goodwin says, shaking his head as the class snickers.

Cauley-Stein and his partner on the assignment sat in on a meeting of the Paranormal Study Organization. Cauley-Stein says he had hoped to join the students on a ghost hunt, but since “paranormal hour” is at 3 a.m., his schedule wouldn’t allow it.

I could definitely see Willie hunting for ghosts and would make an excellent new Goonies video with Kyle Wiltjer.
