I think Prince should have been on the list if he hadn't
been restricted by such a bad coach. For any other UK coach
he would have been the star he is now. But not for that
other coach. Read the comments about Azubuike. Sorta has a
familar ring to it doesn't it. Smith is such a pathetic
coach he ruined the careers of a lot of talented players.
Prince got his chance to shine under good coaching. But not
at UK. I think we should look at what players did at UK to
determine if they should be on that list. And Prince didn't
do that well in college and I blame it ALL on the coach. No
doubt Prince could have made that list and if we looked at
the most talented players to have every played at UK he
might well be on that list but I thought the list was about
the best players that played at UK. I think Chapman would
have to be considered if we looked at the sheer talent. And
Antoine not being there is still a huye mystery to me
because he was a key player in a title year. Go figure.
It's SI. We can't expect much from them.
