When I think of MU's 3 seniors, these are the memories etched into my brain.

Would love to hear which stand out most for everyone else.

I watched Kam against Vermont live as well.  He is an absolute scoring machine and will be missed sorely.  I think he is the most valuable among the originals of this 4 year run.  More than Kolek, Oso, Omax, Stevie or Joplin.  Turned into a great leader.  He covered up many flaws of roster construction with his elite scoring ability.  Toughest guy to replace in a while.  No heir apparent on the roster.  Will be cheering him on tomorrow.

Stevie is one of my favorites of all time. The example in the PT article is a good one.  I like Stevie's work against Villanova in particular.  Loved that he always seemed to get big buckets against them.  Love the offensive rebounds and put backs against anyone. The defense goes without saying.

Joplin is streaky and drives me mad. But man can he get hot. I love the fact that he has had great games against high ranking teams and against the likes of DePaul multiple times.  Let's face it we may have had at least two more losses against those losers if not for Jop.  As much as he makes me cringe when he dribbles more than two times, I've enjoyed him very much.  His defensive progression is a testament to desire to succeed.

Hope all these guys have one more run in them.  Great representatives of MU! We were lucky to have them all.
