Michael Williams would have been a star in any era. I liked Butler a lot, but Vinnie Johnson was consistently spectacular. Brian Skinner was arguably the best big man ever to wear our colors. GoodOleBaylorLine has it right: Don Heathington set the Bears on a great run in the aftermath of World War II. He was a veteran, mature in every way, and his teammate, Jackie Robinson, was not only an All American on that NCAA Championship Final team, but a few months later represented the USA on the gold medal Olympic basketball team. Somehow that does not get him on the list.
Darrel Hardy was an outstanding player for the Bears in the Sixties. He could dominate at both ends of the floor.
I think that he should be higher on that list.
Once more I have to beat the drums for the best player I saw at Baylor in the Fifties, and quite possibly in the Sixties, Jerry Mallett. He was 6'6" tall and possessed a great wingspan and the best wrists and hands I have ever seen. His rebound record is the one that Rico Gathers broke, but Mallett was also one of the great shooters in Baylor history and was an outstanding passer and defender. He was equally gifted in baseball. One scout said his arm was equal to that of Rocky Colavito, who was considered to have the finest throw from the outfield in the major leagues.
