Who's the greatest college player ever? Bob Barker weighs in
I'm not really sure why this video surfaced this weekend, or how, or how old it is -- it features Rick Carlisle when he was still coaching the Indianapolis Pacers and Shaq when Shaq was still giving non-Twitter interviews, so it's at least a few years old -- but I do know that I love it for a variety of reasons.
One is because it's about college basketball, and as you might have guessed, I have something of an interest in college basketball. (This is like saying Michael Jackson had an interest in Demerol.) Two, it features Luke Walton saying the best college basketball player of all-time was his dad, "because he's my dad!" And three, Bob Barker. That's all I'm going to say. Now watch.
See? I told you it was awesome. And it's got the old hamster wheels up to a'churnin' here ... just who was the greatest college basketball player of all-time? This sounds like an offseason post series, doesn't it?
(Big ups to the bots at Blitz Corner.)

Or, perhaps, Walt "Clyde" Frazier leading Southern Illinois to the 1967 NIT title while SIU was still a lower division school.
Sure, its easy to pick Alcindor, or Walton, or Maravich. But go to the old Missouri Valley and find some great stars from the days before the BCS schools began to dominate.
