Top Fan Favorite Players

[IU Hoosier41 14,465]

Hutch's post got me thinking... Who are you top 3 fan favorite players (they didn't necessarily have to play much, or were even that great), but you LOVED every time they checked in and the crowd would go nuts?

1a. AJ MOye

1. Vic
2. CWat
3. Bracey
Honorable Mention. Killingsworth

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,704]

Purely because they saw very few minutes for their entire careers mostly due to injuries that held them back, Todd Meier, Brian Sloan and Jeff Oliphant come to mind as players who always got a rousing welcome when they did get on the court.

I love Pritchard. Priller is a joy! But, the fav for me would have to be Will Sheehey. Such charisma & played with an attitude. Love it

Jon McGlocklin, Ray Tolbert, and Ryan Tapak.

A lot harder when you actually tried to think of a list. Moye and Vic top it for me. Hard to go from there, and I'm only 22 so I missed a lot.

Man I loved Alford on the court. I also loved Cheaney, Alan Henderson, Brian Evans, AJ Guyton, Tom Coverdale, Vic, and Cody Zeller.

[Creanfan 291]

Can't pick.  I loved them all! :scratchhead:

Ok, it took us a minute but here is my husband's list - Kyle Hornsby, Tom Abernathy & Brian Sloan - "Sloan Screen #45".

My list - Matt Nover, Donald Perry & Brian Sloan. Apparently we are suckers for a good screener!

There's so many for different reasons.

In my first 17 years covering IU I would have to say:

1. A.J. Moye (my all-time favorite IU quote)

2. Dane Fife (he turned flopping into a science. He once told me he was called for 100 plus fouls in his IU career but he said only actually committed five. That's vintage Fife.)

3. Michael Santa (when a manager gets in a game he has to be on the list, right?)

4. Ryan Tapak (He had a career night on the road at Notre Dame)

5. Marco Killingsworth (If he had gone pro after the Duke game in Assembly Hall his stock was never higher)

[Crimson and Cream 5,796]

Not to get too OT, but Killingsworth had a nice career overseas didn't he? Is he still playing?

I know he played a long time in Israel.

[biteoftheapple 4,115]

My list is I Thomas, S. Green, V. Oladipo. Honorable mention Q. Buckner and B. Wilketson

[WayneFleekHoosier 48,312]

Moye, Newton, Guyton, VO, Zeller, Coverdale, Hornsby, Roth, Watford, Killingsworth.........

Cheaney, Alford, Bailey, Henderson weren't bad either.

[GloryDays 5,920]

 Guys that took on any defensive challenge and played bigger than they were.....

Joe Hillman

AJ Moyee

Jim Thomas

 I'll go ahead and put Collin Hartman on the list while I'm at it.

As far as my all time favorite that should go without saying.
