I'm just waiting for the coolest opposing player names list. Three recent ones off the top of my head:

Sir'Dominic Pointer
God's Gift Achiuwa
Onochie Ochie

How about Myles Davis on Xavier.  It doesn't get much cooler than that.

I remember back in 19 aught 24, 25 and 26 root, rooting for the one and only GUIDO GAUCHLER! Damn, he had a nice set shot.
You know the difference between a dentist and a sadist, don't you? Newer magazines.

I am using actual roster names.

I would welcome a nice separate list of nicknames, as I am not as familiar with those.
George Thompson and Ric Cobb. Then there was Dean the Dream. Also the Black Swan
I thought you were dead. Willie lives rent free in Reekers mind.

Do cool nicknames count?  If so, I came across one of the greatest from the 1936 yearbook when I was compiling pictures for my MU photo archive:  "Peppery Paul Sokody".  I mean, c'mon, "Peppery Paul"!?!?!  That's just classic.  Below is a pic of him from 1936.

If it is a nickname contest it is a no brainer: Pat Smith was "The Evil Dr. Blackheart". No nickname ever close to that cool.

Lackey's "Black Swan"  is a very close second....?

If we want to go blue, we already have Vander.
You actually have a degree from Marquette?

No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.

He never made it.  Deane snuck out to Lamar with him, IIRC.
