[JohnnyMack]

Boddicker

Klotz

[whiteagle]

Wayne Simien, Nick Collison, Hinrich.

[Hella Sideburns]

lester earl
kenny gregory

[King Crimson]

Chris Piper
and a half dozen of norm's thugs--many of them listed above.

[OUstud]

Muenkoe. I remember watching him when I was, like, 8, and he was such a dirty thug. Seems like we always beat him though

[Soonerborn03]

Julius Michalik - He was just so ugly. Biggest adam's apple I've ever seen

Doug Gotlieb - "Shoooooooot"

My personal most disliked:

James Thomas - UT Center a couple years ago and he got away with murder down low

James McFarland - Same thing here

Joey Graham - Finally got called on his offensive fouling in the NCAA's


Edit: Holy crap....I forgot.....Big Country

Did that man ever stand there with his mouth shut in his life?

1. Rick Fox - I wasn't even really following OU sports when he beat us in the NCAAs, I just think he looks like a *********. Every glance I get of him fills me with unexplainable murderous rage.
2. Doug Gottlieb - Watching him cry when we beat the Aggies in Stillwater in the last game in Old GIA was priceless.
3. J.J. Redick - Easy to shoot when you have 4 other athletic guys (or 3 and Shavlik Randolph) creating your shot for you. No one with that much b-acne should ever be allowed to even look at a basketball court.
4. James Thomas - That high-socked thug got away with murder under the basket for the one season he was good.
5. Tom Coverdale/Dane Fife - How did we let two redheaded pasty *******s knock us out of the Final Four?

BBall players I rooted for (non-OU):
1. Romain Sato (Xavier). That guy rained so many 3s down on us in one half in Dallas it was unreal.
2. The dude from Baylor who could dunk like a sonofabitch. Black, I think his name was.
3. Emeka Okafor. After reading an interview with the guy, it was hard not to like him. Classy dude.

I forgot about Derek "Buck" Grimm and James Thomas. Buck Grimm was the guy that Tyus Edney shot his miracle scoop over in the famous drive in the NCAAs. HE WAS A FOOT TALLER!...Thomas was a thug....Mihm=Boddicker=Klotz=Buckman. Texas has always has a big white guy (usually overhyped, except I respect Buckman from last year)....Rick Fox was another @$$clown. I remember that the Celtics has both him and Oscar Gamble from Iowa. Two guys who both geat us on last second shots. At that time, I hoped the Celts lost every game.....Clint Normoore from KU was another.

Rick Fox was another @$$clown. I remember that the Celtics has both him and Oscar Gamble from Iowa.

Is that the same Oscar Gamble that had the massive Afro who also moonlighted as a major league baseball player?
And no list of the most disliked basketball players of all time can be complete without these two soothing words: Christian Laettner. No, make that three soothing words: Christian Freaking Laettner.

[Scott D]

for me Bobby Hurley, and yes...it's personal.

I would've added him to that list, too, but I kind of softened my stance on him after his near-fatal car accident.

I played against him in high school, and he was a dirty cheating bastard then.

[william_brasky]

In no particular order:

Christian Laettner
Jason Sutherland
Rick Fox
Gabe Muoneke
Kobe Bryant

I never got to see him actually play as I'm too young, but what about:
Bill Walton --- Horrrrrible!!!!

Robert Horry with the Lakers due to being so damn clutch on a Kobe team

What about Danny Manning? That bastard broke my heart.

[GDC]

Danny Manning
every NBA player that is not a former Sooner

[kelloggOUballa]

Manu Ginobili, easy

[IronHorseSooner]

Sorry, I meant Kevin Gamble. He hit the three against Billy's team in 1984 (?). I have to admit, Oscar Gamble is funny...

I also never liked Big Country. I remember in High School when my hometown, Miami, OK, had the Golden Norsemen Tourney- the largest in the state (some 75 teams). Schools from all over the state and from Kansas, Missouri, and Arkansas would play. Well, Gans was there, and Big Country is the same age as me. I told my friend that he ought to come see this guy in our High School gym who looked like Sasquatch. He had shaggy hair, and was FAT!
