Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 1720091, member: 27"] Syracuse has had a ton of great players over its long and illustrious history. Even if you limit your top 12 to only players who have made AA teams, there are going to be a lot of outstanding players who will not make the cut. If you look at that orangehoops link I referenced, SU probably has had 30 players or so get named to one AA team or another (again not counting HM AAs). Limiting the choices to only 12 means a lot of AA players or near AA players are not going to make the cut. In his one year at Syracuse, Wes was named a first team AA. I think he was a consensus first team AA. When deciding who makes the top 12 players ever, that is (to me anyway) a huge distinction that needs to be heavily considered. It is not a dig on GMac, or Bill Smith, or Sweet D, or Rak, or CJ or Vinnie Cohen, Rony Seikaly, Rosie Bouie or any of the other great players I was not able to find room for in my list. [/QUOTE]
