Where Does Sammy Rank...

Missouri Brave

New member
...among BU guards since 1990? I'd probably put him in the Top 10, along with these nine players. He's been a very nice player here.

Warren
Gilbert
Dye
Parker
Stuckey
Wright
Ruffin
Roberson
Gillingham

Others in the mix (though I'd take Sammy over all of them, save maybe Will):

J. Robinson
Zobrist
Crouch
White
Franklin
Bennett
Tauai

I'd have to put JC in the Top 10 easily. He only struggled his sophomore season, but had a very solid BU career. Will Franklin was Mr. Clutch for us his senior year, and had he been at BU for at least 1 more year, I'd put him in the Top 10. Truthfully, I didn't avidly start following BU hoops until 1993, so I don't know much about Stuckey other than being a prolific scorer.
Here is my Top 5, followed by next 5:

Parker
Crouch
Warren
Maniscalco
Dye
-----
Stuckey
Gilbert
Ruffin
Wright
Robinson
 
In my opinion since 1996 -

Tier 1


Parker
Crouch
Gilbert
Warren
Dye

Tier 2

Robinson
Maniscalco
Ruffin
Gillingham
Franklin

Tier 3

Roberson
Bennett
Zobrist
Simms-Edwards (will likely move up)
B Wright

We've had some real good ones. Sammy is one 'em.
 
Since 1990?

I think it's divided into two pretty cut and dried levels:

1). Anthony Parker
2). Rob Dye
3). Phillip Gilbert
4). Curtis Stuckey
5). James Gillingham

6). Jeremy Crouch
7). Billy Wright
8 ). Andrew Warren
9). Jerome Robinson
10). Sam Maniscalco


All of my first-tier guys were multi-time All-Valley. Billy Wright was 2nd team twice, and I firmly believe Maniscalco would've been first team next year...

Not a bad list...I think I could agree with your groups.

We have had some good ones.
 
Two add'l thoughts:

1. I'd put Roberson very high on the list because, as much as any BU guard since Hersey, he could change games. Difference is that he did it with his defense. Remember that win over SIU in 1996-97 when BU came back from a 17-point deficit with five minutes left. I recall Roberson stealing the ball from SIU on three straight possessions to key the rally.

2. Charles White. Another great defender. Very underrated because he played on some very forgettable teams. A true Brave.
