Most intimidating player atUK?

[ganner918]

Magloire, during my days of watching

In all seriousness, for me it was Ron Mercer. He was like a mini-Mike Tyson.

Jamal Magloire

Pound for pound it goes to Ulis though.

Ha! That's "tough as nails". He'd be intimidating if the other person was 4'7

 

[RondoBaller21]

Magloire is the only answer.

 

[true blue1]

I got to go with Mercer.

 

[ukfan1622]

I gotta go with Tom Payne...off the court.
On the court Mags or Cuz.

The real bad ass was Kenny Walker. He scored with 3 people hqnging on his arms. No one tried to guard him one on one.

 

[UKBB4Ever]

Cliff Hagan's reputation at UK and the NBA was his strength and intimidation.

 

[RexShepcat]

AD if you wanted to drive to the basket, not his physicality, rather your shot was probably getting swatted back at you.

My All Bad Ass team:

Hurt
Bledsoe
Magloire
Walker
Bennett

My thoughts were BigCuz 1st and Rondo next then who?

Magloire by far.

Not in a "don't mess with that dude" kinda intimidating way, but I'm going to go off the board and say Anthony Davis. Dude used to OWN the paint and intimidate anyone who dared enter. Who remembers the play in Columbia, SC when SC got the ball in the paint and passed up multiple shots just because AD was looming. That one possession sticks out in my head as seeing an entire offense intimidated by the presence of one dude.

Was thinking along the same lines. I think you could easily put Nerlens in this same category.

I would have loved to have seen these lists if Darryl Dawkins had not gone pro & signed with UK as expected.

 

[Rondoed]

James Lee
Winston Bennett

This thread definitely shows everyone’s age. Those not listing Lee or Hurt must be on the young side. Nobody wanted to mess with Mike Phillips or Rick Robey either. Was it assistant coach Lynn Nance that wanted to get ahold of Bobby Knight one time?

Just pure mean and intimidating I would say Magloire and then Robey. Phillips was a serious type, did not smile like Magloire and Robey, very strong and wasn't messed with either. But Magloire and Robey really threw their weight around with smiles on their faces.

Has anyone mentioned Ramel Bradley?

Mark Pope played for Lynn Nance at Washington. He transferred to UK when Nance left.
