I can think of almost that many Kentucky players I would rather have than Maravich.

I'll give you Issel. But you can't seriously have Kenny Walker and Antoine Walker on a list that is allegedly better than Maravich... that makes your entire list suspect.

And who is Cunningham?

And who is Cunningham?

Richie, from Happy Days. I was trying to fill out the list.

I would not take A Walker, but would definitely take Kenny. Look, I was just trying to make a case.

I think Maravich was better than he is getting credit for from hat, but not one of the best ever.

You missed Pat Riley, Louie Dampier, Alex Groza, and Cliff Hagan.

was just quickly going off top of my head. you are correct. I've poorly represented the cats. I even replaced Riley with Billy Cunningham, who was a Tarheel.

 

[Hoosier_Vol]

As far as greatest all-time I'd put him top 3 in SEC history and probably top 50 in the NBA.

Bill Spivey was national player of the year and definitely deserves mention on the all-time UK lists.

Cotton Nash was a 3 year all-America, and, at least in a small, indirect way, is partially responsible for my screen name. Those two facts demand his inclusion as well.

Who is Nash?

If you're asking that kind of question, it's pretty good indication you shouldn't be participating in a debate about SEC basketball history.

None of us are kidding. If we want circus basketball, we'll watch the Globetrotters.
