It is very difficult to come up with only 5, especially for some of the younger members on here. Coach Newton's teams in the 70's had some major players.

Going with a mostly 90s squad here. Was just a great era, and this front court went on to win so many NBA rings, it's ridiculous.

Collin Sexton
Latrell Sprewell
Robert Horry
Jason Caffey
Antonio McDeyss

6th man: Herb Jones

I didn't think Sprewell was that good in college. His NBA success really surprised me.

He had some pretty good stats in college and was a 1st round pick - Latrell Sprewell College Stats, School, Draft, Gamelog, Splits | College Basketball at Sports-Reference.com

Marvin Orange would be in the top 5 of the Alabama all-name team. Also, not mention of Wade Kaiser or Sam Haginas yet? What gives?

May have missed it but not seeing Mo Williams or Kira Lewis on anyones list either. Never seen a kid a quick/fast as Kira Lewis was at least in an Alabama uniform.

It's like trying to pick the all-time starting 11 on either offense or defense or the best Bama softball team. Do you pick Fouts or Van Brakle to pitch? Or the J-train? Or my favorite Van Halen song.

I was in school then and went to every home game. I remember being shocked that he was drafted so high. I remember him bring a bad FT shooter, so that automatically tarnished his reputation with me.

We can probably leave it at I wasn't a fan.

Ha ha, Kramer. My wife and I were watching the other night when it was The Contest and Jerry wanted to tell the lady that undressed where they can see her and Kramer says "come on Jerry, let me have this. Lord knows I don't ask you for much". We just died laughing.

For my list I would have to pick some that has already been listed!

In a 1,000% different scenario, I used that line on my boss the day when I made a request for next school year. "You know I don't ask for much..." She's not a Seinfeld fan, but she did crack a smile.
