Any thoughts? I would have to go with BA, Aluma, or maybe LB

Good topic ... better suited for the Old Folks Home. But I'll leave it here for now.
Bailey gets my vote. I would've loved to see him run in this offense we have now.

I would love to have played in an offense that encouraged the 3 pointer. I shot 44% my jr year, and 42% my senior year but I didn't take a lot of them because the game was different then. BA shot almost 52% for his career and everyone in the gym was only guarding him (and me when I finally got to play a lot of minutes). We saw triangle and 2 a lot my senior year. This is a tough call though when you look at everything and not just numbers. Julius Nwoso has to be in the conversation though.

I think this convo will be pointless in 3 years

Yeah, 3 years from now the debate will still rage between Tim Layer and Garen Lafser.

Nwoso definitely deserves to be mentioned.
My outsider's vote would go to Peter Aluma. He's simply the most dominating big man this conference has ever seen.

I think we're a mere 2 wins away from "mostly" everyone rendering it pointless.

Eduardo from Brazil way back when! Seriously, Baily A would be in the top 3 easy.

I will go with Marcus White. Excellent quickness, can score when called upon, a good floor general, AND HE PLAYS DEFENSE!!!. He made others around him better with Larry Jackson and Peter Aluma and LU had some of our best years with him at the point. It is a shame that he had academic issues.
