I'd rather have Gesell in that group than Kingsbury for defensive purposes. Jbo Settle and Street gives them enough shooting

No mention of Woodbury.
Oglesby might not have been slowest of foot, but he was one of slowest to pull the trigger on his shot.

Cougill, hands down. Wade Lookingbill was pretty quick, as I remember.
No Seth Gorney sightings lately?
Troy Skinner has to take the cake, going by memory. I'll cut the big guys some slack - Troy Skinner. Short and slow. Deadly combination. Pretty decent shooter, though, if memory serves.

Yes! Lil Lick! Ironically, one of Purdue's most athletic white guy players (maybe ever? Chris Kramer) is guarding him there.
I just remember Kelsey Barlow defending Lil Lick in a game that season and it made me LOL. It looked like a bully chasing around his intended victim, like a cat and mouse sort of thing.
I say let's settle this race issue once and for all. We'll pit Mike Henry and Acie Earl against Steve Waite and Les Jepsen in a hundred meter dash.
Fire off the gun and then lean back and let the sun dial pick the winner.

People seem to forget little lick pumped faked here to get this dude in the air. When this picture was taken little lick just stated his asent and is about to throw a wicked windmill dunk in this guys face. True story I swear.
Believe it or not, lil Lick did actually finish this play over what seems to be impending doom. Here is the video evidence to prove it.
Looks like the defender is in the air & about ready to foul. ..therefore. ...advantage Lick.
I remember a throw together team of Iowa players that included Krafcisin, Waite, and Kevin "Big Gun" Boyle playing an exhibition in the summer of 1981 against members of the Panamanian national team--essentially Briar Cliff's studs at the time.The group included the likes of Rolando Frazer, Mario Galvez, and Reggie Grenald. The Iowa players made the mistake of trying to run full court with them. The Panamanians ran by them like they were standing still. It was no wonder Lute wouldn't agree to play a pre-season exhibition against them.

Let's have an all american on the team, back when most BB teams were white: I give you Chuck Darling.
Lol, that probably was Lil Lick's best game, wasn't it? I remember him making some good plays but I was just more concerned about the Boilers getting the win.
On a side-note, I'm glad that team scoring averages seem to be trending up in college hoops over the past couple of years. I'm pretty sure the final score of the game above was 69-58.
When I see this name I instantly get the flashback to his FT attempts towards the end of the game vs Boston College. Cringe.

I was going to say...
People always use that pic as evidence to JL's lack of athleticism, which he had an abundance of. I find it odd as I always seem to think "he made that shot...somehow"
Pretty sure the Hawks only averaged about 56ppg that year, which would make 69-58 high scoring for them.

Yeah, I figured it was somewhere in that range. I'm just moreso commenting that I'm happy both programs (and most college hoops teams in general) have improved quite a bit in the scoring department in recent seasons. It's a combination of the rule changes and the type of personnel both programs have had in the past few years (a little bit longer than a few years for the Hawks).
Oh, I got it. It was just so incredibly dumb I was trying to contribute to the dumbness.
Mission accomplished.
