Most Hated Players of the Last 30 Years - G-land

[Goose]

Kelly tripucka, David Rivers, joe chernelich, corzine and the big white kid ND seems to every year...fill in the name.

Michigan played 34 games their freshman season. Webber started all of them, Rose 33, Howard 31, King 21, Jackson 15. They all started together from early February on.

Jackson averaged 17 minutes but the rest of them all averaged 28+. In fact, Howard played all of 1 minute more than King on the season.

Well, guess i was wrong about King, and guess I was a couple weeks off in terms of Fisher starting them as a unit (thought it was closer to the end of February).

For me personally my least favorite player hands down is Jon Scheyer. Couldn't stand the kid in high school or college.

Ahhhh. Forgot about Pittsnoggle.

From a Big East standpoint, I think Devandorf is #2, w/Harongody #1. Hands effing down.

I hated Scottie Reynolds so much for the following reasons: he always killed us, two of my best friends went to Nova so that was annoying, they were really good when he was there, it felt like he was there for a whole decade, and we matched up against him perfectly but he would crush us. I was so happy when he became the first All American to not be drafted.

Kelly tripucka, yes,  David Rivers, yes,  joe chernelich, yes,  corzine, ?,   and the big white kid ND seems to every year, yes...fill in the name.

Add to that Ricky Olson and Mark Aguirre

Where's Tom Kleinschmidt? 

He played at Depaul.

[Lennys Tap]

Except for the fact that they were SUPER popular and a lot of people loved them.

Kind of like Duke?

[Dawson Rental]

and Laimbeer.

Laimbeer remained a d*ck in the NBA.  Sunk a long three against the Bucks.  Ran off the court signalling "Three".  Crowd screaming at him.  He thrived on being a d*ck.

You nailed it.  I was sure that this would turn into a "why I hate Laimbeer" thread.  He has to be responsible for at least 2/3's of the hate directed toward ND to this day whether those directing the hate that way know it or not.  He and Digger (with a nod in Tirpucka's direction) institutionalized hated of ND at Marquette.  The only possible explanation is that he was just too long ago for many on this board to appreciate.  The only thing that ever got Laimbeer pissed was not getting to the crowd.

Really? You hated David Rivers? I can see the other guys, but Rivers was a down-to-earth kid who was a really good player with a good, came-from-nothing, recovered from a devastating car accident story.

[Goose]

David Rivers drove me crazy. Thought he was over hyped, played for what seemed like a decade at ND and had buzzer beater against us. My hate factor is based off if the kids career seems longer than four years.

I was so happy when he became the first All American to not be drafted.

I disliked him ONLY because he did well against us.  Other than that, I think he was ultimately likeable.  Played hard, was damn good, and didn't seem to have an ego (in terms of showing people up or otherwise being unsportsmanlike).

[Lennys Tap]

My most hated Domer is Dwight Clay, who hit a 22 footer from the baseline to end MU's home winning streak at 81. Probably a really good guy but I can't forgive him that shot.

[Goose]

Lenny

I hate that clay beat us, but I never hated him before that. Will remember him beating us forever and the heartbreak that followed. Maybe I will start to hate 35 years later. Nice addition.

Jalen Rose is a very funny and interesting guy. C Webb always seemed like a chill dude.

[MarquetteDano]

I completely disagree with nearly every player on this list.  Maybe I am misunderstanding the concept here.  We are going to hate players who were good and maybe a little annoying?

Where are the cheaters ala Chris Webber?  Where are the women beaters, ala Devendorf?  People who attempted to murder their roommate, ala Donald Little?

Those are the people who should be hated.  Seems like this bracket confirms that society's priorities are messed up.

[MerrittsMustache]

Where's Jean Felix on the list?

Let's not forget the horse puncher - Art Long.
