*Fun Thread* to Feel Better...Your FAV starting 5 by position

FUNNER thread - almost-was players

No dude, it should be our favorite 5 almost-was players. those that never played at utep , ended up leaving or transferring before playing a game or just one season. Players that broke our hearts. Players we recruited and never signed don't actually count (Gary Peyton). Some of these players ended up not being good, but at the time we thought they were going to be the next superstar of the program.

PG: Isaac Hamilton
SG: Keion Kindred
SF: Alex Galindo
PF:Richie Parker (we recruited him for a little bit but then backed out when we got negative publicity - google it)
C: Loof Lirpa

Bench:? Henry Hall

Never saw them play, but you can't go wrong with Hill, Artis, Worsley, Flournoy, and Lattin.

pg: Tony Parker
sg: Kobe Bryant
sf: Connie Hawkins
pf: Lebron James

I'm not sure about Tony Parker, but i don't think any of these players played college ball so they could have come to UTEP. (Hawkins enrolled at Iowa but was disq before he could play)
