What is your favorite nickname for an SU Player?

[Don]

I dont think they give as many good nicknames as they used to back in my old days and now its usually an abbreviation to there full name but there have been some pretty good nicknames in the past for players. Im not going to give the most obvious ones but some of my old times favs.

Some of my favorites
"Sweet D" Dennis Duval
The combined nickname of Hal Cohen and Marty Headd "the Coneheads"
The stringbean Louie Orr
"Shack the Showman" for maybe the most versatile player in SU history Dale Shackelford.
The Rocket Man Chris Sease
Of course Jimmy Dont call me Bug Willaims
The original Red Toney Red Bruin Im not sure if he had the highest veridical jump ever at Cuse but it was up there.
