Build your all time hustle team since you’ve been a fan!

[GeorgeStrait IU]

12 scholarships and 1 walk-on to earn the 13th scholarship.

Ive been watching IU basketball since 1990-1991 season (I’m 38, Damon’s freshman year) So I can only go by what Ive seen.
in no order:
AJ Moye
Chris Reynolds
Matt Nover
Dane Fife
Brian Evans
Haris Mujezinovic
Tom Coverdale
Victor Oladipo
Jeff Newton (Very underrated player)
Damon Bailey (my all time fave)
Thomas Bryant. (Heart and hustle while here)
Alan Henderson

Walk on: Errek Suhr gets the nod over Ryan Tapak and Mark Johnsons magical 2 game 2004 BIG10 tourny run. vbg
Coach: Hmmmmm

You older guys will build a better roster I’m sure. Remember the rule is has to be when you started watching IU. And I’m sure I’m missing someone very important during my fanhood 90-present.. Lewis comes to mind.

 

[HoosierinNebraska]

Moye
Reynolds
Harris M
Meeks
Fife
Lewis
Sheehy
Oladipo
Bryant
Hulls
Juwan Morgan
McRoberts

walk on: Suhr

 

[ThreeToMakeTwo]

Sheehey. That is all.

 

[Frosty83]

Good list......I would add Bobby Wilkerson 76 and Jim Thomas 81.

Though I do not respond much at all, I really enjoy reading some of these types of threads.
This one brought on tto respond.
I got:

Nover and Hillman for sure. I would add Jamal Meeks to the list andthen 5 guys most people do not think about much:

May
Woodson
Alford
Cheaney
Guyton

Some mentioned a guy like Sloan who set the screens but imagine being the “pinball” constantly moving in the motion offense and bouncing off the screens and the bumps and grabs from defenders they had to go through and around.
I would love to see a “sport science” study of how far Alford ran in an average game just on offense.

 

[Tru2Irish]

Does anyone know how much Alford had to run on the court to get around screens?? Miles. He had to really hustle to get shots and still had the legs for great free throw shooting. My top 5 -Bobby Wilkerson,Jeff Newton,Chris Reynolds,Calbert Cheaney and Alan Henderson.

Forwards:
Eyl
Sloan

Randle El was always a lightening bolt of energy and hustle when he played for IU too.

Who was the guy with the put-back jam during the Crean years? I think his last name started with a ‘P’. He and Sheehey are two members of my hustle team … as I remember.

Tom Pritchard.

Thank you.

Greg Graham- once he learned to recover and not just let his guy drive by him, of course!

Seriously though, the ‘92 and ‘93 teams were my favorite to watch (I was too young in ’87 to remember them). I remember rooting for Dook to beat UK in that ‘92 regional final only to have Ted Valentine happen in the FF.

The ‘02 team certainly had its share of go-getters too, esp Moye and Fife.
