Title: Cool Names - Butler
Post by: warriorchick on January 30, 2015, 10:48:45 AM

Aaaand, we are back to the Midwest.

The names on this team sounds like what you would expect students on a private nonsectarian university to have; they have a disproportionate number of Last Names that are First Names.  We've got two Tylers, two Jacksons, an Austin, an Emerson, and a misspelled Cameron.  They don't list any brothers or sisters in Kameron Wood's bio, but I bet they are named Kandace, Kalvin, and Kassandra.

I am voting for Roosevelt Jones because it is the perfect '70's-era basketball name. And if you gave a basketball-playing character that name in a screenplay, you would totally be called out for stereotyping.

The Seton Hall poll was a tie!  We will have a runoff between Ismael Sanogo and Chier Ajou the next time we play them.

Yeah! Roosevelt Jones is a throwback name. Talk about stereotypical names on that roster: Austin Etherington sounds like an MI6 operative. Dude should be in the Bahamas tracking down rogue scientists who want to hold the world hostage to a nuclear warhead.
