Too many to pick, probably would have to go with Kemba for me.

just realizing that this thread has definitely been done before. Oh well, it's summer and there's nothing else to talk about.

Really who has just one favorite? Allen, Hamilton, Okafor, Kemba... are right up there. So many others, even non stars.

Of course there are many to love, and debating who is "best" would be a harder question for me.

But "favorite," to me, just means who you liked the most. And I gotta go with Khalid for that. The minute he stepped on campus something changed about us forever imo. As soon as I saw him, it was the first time I knew we would win a National Championship. He was the X-Factor, swagger and confidence we were missing, and once that mindset changed, lots of good things followed.

Duh... Kevin Ollie!!

I know he never made it big time, but Kevin Freeman was such a warrior. Also Jeff Adrien - gotta love guys who stuck it out for 4 years and worked their asses off while here. Then of course, Uncle Cliffy, Ray, Rip, Emeka, Kemba and Khalid. But holy cow - to pick just one? Not possible...

Kevin Freeman, and its not close.

I missed the BE tournament game vs. Seton Hall in 1999 because I had a MGMT exam, but you don't have to look any further to understand his value to that team. Undersized lunch pail power forward. The personification of, "the size of the fight in the dog."

Too many great players to pick just one. But if I had to choose 1, it would have to be Nadav Henefeld

I have so many its impossible to pick one.
But I feel Cliff Robinson is frequently overlooked.
He was one hell of a player who got overlooked due to the level of talent in the BE.
He had a long and incredible NBA career.
