[STEVEHOLT]

what? no BMK? its obviously BMK

 

[TinyManInside]

MCW. Yeah, he had some really, really bad moments... but when he was on, he was special.

 

[CaptainJ]

Am I allowed to pick Otto?(the one that is Tee certified)

 

[CuseCPT]

Gotta give some love to Rick Jackson. A real quiet storm down low, he did the dirty work and loved it.

Also honorable mention to Kristof Ongeanot. He wasn't the most skilled player on the floor but damn if he didn't play the hardest. He was like a Rocky movie on the hardwood.

I picked Devo but Rj is right up there. He was absolutely amazing his senior year. Steady every game, it always seemed like he had a double double or close and in all reality the MVP of that team.

Yeah he was almost an automatic double double, it was great to watch him develop as a player. My favorite RJ memory was after he made a hard (but clean foul) on Thabeet and Thabeet started hemming an hawing about it. Rick just looked him up and down had this "come try it, then" smirk on his face. Rick owns.

Arinze...and his ridiculous work ethic and GPA. Beast...

AO gets my vote for student athlete ... but what about Rakeem Christmas? I'm disappointed (though not surprised) that little has been made concerning his academic achievement.

Absolutely! I made a post a few weeks back about how his improved production on the court might be in part because he graduated in three years and doesn't have as much academic pressure.

 

[KingOnuaku]

1. Jonny Flynn
2. DION
3. Devendorf
4. Arinze Onuaku
5. Big D*** Rick

 

[LennX6]

Andy

Same here. Andy. then Dion.

 

[OrangeDW]

Flynn.

 

[weepeel]

Wow nobody mentioned cj fair he was part of a sweet sixteen, elite eight, and final four team..triche as well

 

[Gormanite4L]

These Guys!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[orange2win]

1. Mookie - denied his chance
2. Dion - Always treated as second fiddle
3. Paul - 22 RB's against U-Conn and he was barely 6'-5"

The rest were all special.

 

[triplethrea]

I don't know why but I really liked Rick Jackson.

 

[bryanradams]

Thickburger.
When you look back at Cuse guys that won alot, improved drastically from frosh to jr/sr, played hard and made their mommas proud, CJ Fair is the most recent (2009-on), but Hak is the all-time top of that list.

 

[tbonezone]

scooper and the mooseman

(sounds like a dylan song)

 

[NYCorange]

Andy, because he improved so much and was probably the biggest reason our offense was top ten in the country his final two years--his presence and ballovement opened up so many gaps for other players. Also, his defense was completely underrated by every opponent we played.

And then MCW. I loved his emotion and confidence-- he completely dominated IU in what's probably our biggest win of the past ten years. He also made probably the biggest individual play of the past few years as well--the steal and dunk to beat Louisville in the yum center. He was the ideal guard for our zone and you never had a doubt that he'd match whatever intensity that the other team brought.

 

[Trueblue25]

Eric devendorf and there is no close second for me. I miss his toughness. Respect a player willing to throw down

Didn't know this was an option.

Eric Devendorf is my favorite player all time. Met him in person several times, he's a horribly misunderstood individual. He was a player who could talk the talk and walk the walk. He's exactly the type of player we've lacked as of late. He was the "edge" that builds contenders. A great college basketball player and a very nice guy.

 

[Seng85]

Scoop and Andy. Enjoyed watching them grow as players and leaders.

 

[jgeorge322]

Dion.

 

[AlaskaSU]

XMAS No other big-time basketball player ever got his degree in 3 years and he saved the best for last. Not only is he carrying the team but his shooting percentage is off the charts. I would not be surprised if his streak continues through the ACC. He will be first round for sure, and maybe lottery. Love all who bleed orange and carry out our two signature traditions: consistent winning record, and being a reliable closing team in tight games.

I said Flynn earlier, but to elaborate, he was one of the more explosive, dynamic, and competitive players we've had. He made a lot of big shots/plays starting right with his first 2 games of his career. He willed us to a comeback win over Kansas. That 28 win(against ou hardest schedule ever) sweet 16 2009 team kicked off our run of great seasons, and Flynn was the catalyst. I think he had a big role in turning things around, and he was our first high rated recruit in awhile that turned out to be even better than advertised.
