  • Christmas Break Questionnaire

    Who is your NUMBER ONE, ALL-TIME BU PLAYER.

    Only 1 player can be chosen.

    You have to have been mentally coherent when they played... (make it more interesting with the younger fans)

    I'll start:

    Theron Wilson

    I guess you must mean favorite, not best?
    If that is the case the I would say Harold McMath.
    If you mean best then Theron Wilson isn't in the top 20.
    It would be between Hersey Hawkins and Chet Walker I would say.

    Edit: Or is mentally coherent supposed to mean you saw them play. If that is the case then Hersey Hawkins

      Not certain how mentally coherent I was back then....

      My choice:

      Hersey Hawkins
      Bradley 72 - Illini 68 Final

        Anthony Parker for me

        Im assuming he means you were alive and witnessed them play.

          Remy Abell.

          But being serious, it would probably be Anthony Parker. The first great player I was mentally coherent for. Sometimes I wish I was "mentally coherent" for Hawkins, Phegley, Anderson, Walker, Les, Winters.... But everything I know of them I've had to learn through secondhand stories or videos, books, etc. As silly as it sounds, one of the reasons I attended Bradley was because of a basketball card I had autographed by Hersey Hawkins when I was younger when he was a Sonic. The back of his card said his college was "Bradley" and when I found out it was in Illinois, I got really excited and everything took off from there. Funny how much influence athletes have over youngsters.

                  Frank Sylvestor.........not really.....there are so many favorites for different reasons ...

                  I liked Jimmy Caruthers a lot back in the day as well as Voise Winters...there are so many..

                  as far as the best...I guess Hersey and Parker

                    Faves- Phegley, Harold MacMath, Hop Houston, Barney Mines, Voise Winters, Trevor Trimpe

                    Best I saw- Hersey Hawkins(lucky enough to get to know well and consider a friend) and as good as he was, was also one of the most genuine people I've ever met...

                    ???We all want Bradley to win. If our methods and visions for that are different, then so be it. Don't ever attempt to tell me I am not a fan!???

                          Before my time, but would loved to have seen Squeaky play as I have heard so much about him.
