Kansas guard Brady Morningstar (12) defends UNI's Ali Farokhmanesh (5) Saturday, March 20, 2010, in Oklahoma City, OK.

When March rolls around and the talk turns to NCAA upsets, you’re liable to overhear conversations like this in Kansas basketball circles:

“Who was that shooter? Who was the
little, um … ”

“He had a weird last name, right?”

“Yeah, yeah, yeah. What was his name?”

“Uh, Farokhmanesh?
Farokhma-something?”

“Yes. Yeah, I remember him just
raining jumpers the whole game.”

Now what happens when the conversation starter is that guy, the infamous hero/villain of Northern Iowa’s 2010 upset of KU, Ali Farokhmanesh?

To find out, the Omaha World-Herald grabbed the now-Nebraska graduate assistant and brought him to CenturyLink Center, where the Jayhawks started their 2015 NCAA Tournament.
