Who is the greatest COLLEGE basketball player of all time...

[Syklone]

Not a fan of the guy, but Laettner should at least be in the paragraph.

Pete was the most gifted, most entertaining, the best, whatever you want to say. And yes..... his team double sucked dog butt.

As the above stats bear out..... Walton was better than Alcindor. A couple more tidbits...... Sampson should be most remembered for the NCAA creating a rule because of his talents. And Larry Bird and his band of half-butts got jackhammered by Magic and Sparty.

I believe as the folk lore goes, Alcindor's freshman team (ineligible to play varsity at the time) used to beat Walton's varsity team in practice.

Good point.

Alcindor is older than Walton.

 

[packer2012]

Maybe that is a reason why they call it "folklore"?

Should have made the topic, "Besides Maravich".....

What does this have to do with anything?

 

[neverbend]

Maravich by a mile!

 

[packer2012]

Someone mentioned Bird and there "undefeated" team going into the finals. They did not play much of a schedule. Had a really goo mid-major team.

Agree.

This is funny. 1960's basketball wasnt real. There are 50 college players in 2014 better than Oscar Robertson.

I am better than Oscar is....How many points did he get off being tall?

 

[Vlad the Impaler]

It's the same thing as there is a better qb in 2060 than there is now. That is the way the world works.

 

[Vlad the Impaler]

Imagine a 7'0" stiff with no moves in 2015. He wouldn't even be drafted.

I voted for you :aktion033

 

[Vlad the Impaler]

See, even the Canadian knows I am right

 

[Vlad the Impaler]

It's like Greg Oden in high school. He was a 7'0" tall guy with average athletic ability who was playing against 6'4" guys... Does it count?
