what?? the guys on this list would have been over-performers by definition, not under performers, and charlie's hustle/production never matched his potential/hype.
The reason I put Charlie on my list is the fact that he was tough and he played with attitude. In some of those down years that we recently had where it just seemed like we couldn’t match the toughness of teams like Cincinnati, I would take a guy like Charlie Villanueva in a second.
I could see that. Not tough in a scrappy sense but tough in a “you’re not gonna make him look like a punk” sense
Exactly!
Weren’t smith and Corny stars for there teams
He has a special place of honor
Donny Marshall was no shrinking violet. I also loved Gilbert’s heart even if I criticized his PG play. Jake was also a banger who figured no blood no foul.
Gavin Edwards was a Warrior!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AG was tough. Sometimes though the body just lets you down. He was a warrior but he's also the biggest "What if?" guy if he had been healthy.
They were stars during some lean years. C Smith was a beast and Corny’s game was blue collar tough. Which is why they’d fit perfectly on these all-warrior teams.
I would definitely include Hobbs, undersized, played tough, led to some benchmark wins early on.
While this lineup is not at all balanced and wouldn't make a bunch of sense on paper, it's 20 wins. Reminds me of what Pitt used to bust out with the all old man team of the Krauser era that won enough or old school BCU Curley teams.
Bascom was phenomenal. Have to add Carla Berube, she played anywhere there was a need.
THIS ...... and Taliek
