Keeping the Coach K video game theme....


This power forward was an absolute beast. He was just NASTY. Dominating. He turned out to be a pretty good Pro too, having a 12 year career with 4 different teams. Due to being undersized, though..he had to move to small forward.

Corliss "Big Nasty" Williamson

Pts awarded

One played with the Celtics last year, another hasn't played for but has been linked due to to his PF buddy on the team, and finally the other was a roleplayer for us during an ECF run.

Nope! When I say ECF run, I mean the playoff run ended at the ECF. Also when I said last year I meant 2008-2009 season, but big man stiff is on the right track...

Partial credit, so point awarded. One of the other two players was his team mate at NU and has a championship ring.
