Absolutely a great name.
But Isiah Umipig has a following and a catchy chant: "Ima pig, ura pig, uma pig"

That reminds me of an all time classic. When Fly Williams played for Austin Peay (pronounced with a long e sound) they had the following chant: " The Fly is open...Let's Go Peay!"

Actually Pembroke Burrows III. Don't forget the III. He became a Florida Highway Patrol officer. Imagine that walking up to your car door after a long night on the town.

How about Duany Duany. Didn't realize he wore the same number as his brother.

 

[obliterata]

my favorite is Ollie Hoops

 

[obliterata]

I liked Pembroke Burrows just because of the name and the fact that he was skinny but Sidney Wicks is one of my all-time favorite players and I was rooting for UCLA in the championship game vs Jacksonville. Artis Gilmore was at least a half foot taller than Wicks but Wicks outplayed him.

 

[Madbiker]

Who can forget Boubacar Aw on Georgetown? A classic name (especially considering the program) if there ever was one.
