Duke seems to do the least with the most!

I vote for Tweety Carter from Baylor as favorite name

 

[tornado]

Tweety was a senior at Reserve Christian School in Reserve, Louisiana. He was a senior at the same time Eddren McCain, BU's recruit, was a sophomore, and the two played together on the championship team from the Oregon Tournament where Eddren and Tweety combined to help tiny Reserve Christian knock off everyone and win the tourney over teams like Lake Oswego with Kevin Love and Medford with Kyle Singler!!
Here are some links...
Eddren is in the middle picture of each of the top two rows here (Kevin Love is in the picture right next to Eddren in the top row.)

and here was their roster

ad this site lists Reserve as the Champs that year (05-06) abnd Tweety Carter was the Tourney MVP

Tweety is a cool name, but here are a couple of Tweety's accomplishments/records that may never be broken.

Tweety Carter's Records



By the way, just one of the many records that Tweety has that'll likely never be broken, get this....
He was the HIGH SCHOOL Player of the Year in his state (Louisiana) FIVE times!!
That's right five different times, and he never flunked and repeated a grade!!
Since junior high kids are eligible to play on their high school teams in Louisiana, Tweety had been playing varsity since he was in 7th grade,
and from his 8th grade year through his senior year in high school, he was POY each year, five different times!
One other record that'll be hard to break, Tweety MADE 287 3-point baskets IN ONE SINGLE SEASON!!!
