UC Davis Dream Team Debate PGs - Baranco, Graham, Shorts. If you could go to a lab and build a prototypical Aggie PG its Gordon Baranco. Tough, smart, relentless worker. The epitome of Aggie Pride.
Combos - Hawkins, Lamar, Neumayr (Preston could BALL. Perhaps the smartest Aggie BB player I ever watched play. So crafty, so much court awareness, relentless effort.)
SGs - Sypkens (just an assassin from distance - the record books prove it), Avery Johnson (perhaps the most athletic and cosistently reliable defender to wear an Aggie uniform)
Forwards - Chima, Payne (so skilled, high BB IQ), Ritchart ("new school forward" - big who can stretch the floor), Ryan Moore (sooo athletic), Caligari (classic big - big, strong, bruiser, but still very graceful with his play), Josh Fox (sentimental choice - played so much bigger than his 6'6" size. Island strong. GREAT leader.)
Center - The only true center I have is Monson. Quietly highly productive on the offensive end, productive rebounder, excellent FT shooter. This would have been JT's by a long shot had he not had two major knee injuries. Prior to the ACLs failing, JT's potential was sky high. Despite those difficulties, JT will hold a special place in Aggie lore - total workhorse who gave every ounce he had.
Honorable Mention - Cox, Rabadeaux, Juilerat (sp? sorry), Harden, Ross, Thomas, Fowzi, Familetti (just a thief on D),
Special Honorable Mention - Leon Richardson, who passed away mid-game. Ham and the other coach, of course, agreed to call the game right then and there. Watched it happen. Tragic.
