Doesn't need a nickname. "Theo" is good enough.

He's not gonna get confused with any other Theo.

As much as I think Theo embodies the spirit behind that nickname, we just can't do that.   You can't just recycle nicknames.  If we someday have a new coach named Albert Smith, he will never be able to be simply "Al" at Marquette.  A player named Darrell Wade will never be "DWade" at Marquette.  I could go on.

Personally, I'm with McDermott.  Theo is The Monster.
Never wrestle with a pig.  You both get dirty, and the pig likes it.

John only needs 10 more blocks to crack the top 10 for blocks in a single season for Marquette.

Lots of nicknames get recycled.    Is TFJ appropriate?    I suggested Leroy Brown earlier, cuz Theo is the baddest man in the whole damn town.    But TFJ is easier.
