I had the pleasure of watching both and I would think they were very similar players. Ironically they were both transfers from other schools, Mackyeon played 1 year at Oklahoma State, mostly in a off the bench roll and Hamilton came from TAMU-CC where he was a standout for them the one year he was there.
Hamilton was a beast, but yes very similar type players in my humble opinion.
Very good list. I think we had more success with Mouton at the PG and Mitchell at the SG. Much like the current team, I don't think we are as good when Russell is playing point. However, having Mitchell at PG, really made us tough on the defense.
Allen, Brooks and Grider were the most unstoppable I witnessed for sure. It seemed like Brooks shot 85+% on that one play when he would come off the down screen and hit the elbow jumper.
Antoine Landry is a guy who didn’t do much his 1st 3 years but exploded as a senior. if only he had redshirted. In today’s environment he would just be another bust/transfer
All time defensive team.
Guards:S. Griggs, E. Payton, I. Washington, B. Jones, and L. Bridges.
Bigs: J. Gant, M. Southall, K. Colby, B. Washington, and T. Awaku.
My family had season tickets in the upper reaches of Blackham, opposite of the Cajuns' bench, right at the baseline. During the first half, when USL was playing on the far court, we had a perfect view of Warner's shot. He always hit the same spot, and our vantage point had him on a perfect line between us and the rim. Seemed like he never missed that shot, and the net never moved. He was just deadly from there.
