The Most Hated College Basketball Players of the Last 30 Years


Laettner should win in a landslide, of course... UConn's only rep is Marcus Williams, an 8 seed that won't pull the upset (by being more hated) than the 1 seed who is Hansbrough. Though I could definitely see Hansbrough losing in the second round to Devedorf. I would have thought opposing fans might pick KEA, Rod Sellers or maybe Kemba as UConn's MHP.

DaJuan Blair needs to be on that list.

On a quick count Duke, NC and SU are the best represented. Giving Duke their own region was worth the click alone.

Ruslan,
I can see where Williams would be less than adored by opposing fans. He was pretty smug. Not bad though, considering the success of the program, that we've only had 1 guy on this list.

I guess, but he seems pretty nondescript compared to other guys on that list. It's almost like they said "Hey, we need a UConn guy. Rudy Gay? Nah. How bout this guy."
El-Amin would've been a great choice.

That's exactly the thought I when I read it.

Yes remember the Sweet 16 game against Iowa when that big guy tried to go (I think Jack was his name) after Khalid right when Uconn-Iowa were going into halftime.

Ask Duke, Pitt or Washington who their most hated Uconn players are.

I don't know who to hate more Reddick or Greg Paulus!

Then again I hate all of Dook, so problem solved :)

I don't know about Pitt, but this guy probably doesn't get many birthday cards from Seattle

After torching them for 27 in 1999, Duke probably isn't happy about him.
Former Duke forward Chris Carrawell says: “The thing about Rip is that he’s great at running off screens, and that offense was tailor-made for him. He has always been a player who wasn’t afraid of the moment. A lot of that (national championship) game, it was me who was guarding him. Of course, he did the same thing to the Lakers and Kobe Bryant in the NBA Finals, so I didn’t feel too bad. At (6-6), he was coming off those screens so fast and was in constant perpetual motion, sometimes changing speeds off the screens — he was so hard to guard. You also couldn’t read him. You couldn’t tell if he was tired because his mood never changed. He was also a great midrange shooter, which is a lost art. He made shots from 15 to 17 feet against us. I remember I blocked his shot a couple of times in that game, but it was impossible to hold him down. He just kept coming.

Just noticed Austin Rivers. Simmons is probably pissed at this guy.

Carl Krauser...not a big enough name to get on the list I suppose
I feel like we could pretty easily fill a bracket of most hated simply by UConn fans.

I vote for Nate Miles.

He played JuCo so doesn't he qualify?

For me its Paulus. I got two alumni newsletters with pictures of Coach K and Wojo recruiting and then fondling Paulus. To this day I now tell people I have a GED :)

Paulus is a basketball coach at Navy now, right? Is that why they will be football only members?
