First off you do not have to play 4 years AND THEN go to the NBA to be considered a great COLLEGE basketball player. If that was the case the please explain Gonzaga's success.Tim Duncan was and will be the last great college basketball player ever.
As for someone after Duncan who played 4 years Shane Battier pops into my mind. I could name my share of those also.
Absolutely no talent at all, just a bunch of mediocre players squaring off each other that I could probably give a good run (definitely when I was 20 and in good shape).
Please do not try to insult a college basketball fans intelligence with this hogwash. When you were 20 and in good shape you probably could not hang with many of the female college basketball players.
Anytime you want to make the trip down (or is it up?) you can test me. I'll even let you pick the court. Bring your Jordans.
Well you said Tim Duncan so I assumed you meant anyone that made the cover of EA's March Madness (is that not greatness personified)? I am ot a Duke fan other then the coach and would disagree with you on Battier.
You made the claim to greatness on the court. You head down to Lubbock and I will get you into Untied Spirit Area. After beating you I can hook you up in a one on one match with Erin Grant. She is only 5'8 but would gladly spot you a few points in a game to 10. Heck let me get Bobby Knight to ref the game so you can tell him just how bad college basketball is.
