Really great recap. It’s an impossible task and, as you said, super subjective. We all have our favorites. :) I agree with all of the points Ed made in his comment - Delray being the biggest. Also feel like I can’t mention best PGs, Scorers or defenders at PC without Eric Murdock being on the list (he was “my guy” at that age where sports mean a little too much). Also a toss up between Barnes and Gillen. Both great in their own right. Easy to forget that Rick took over a team/program in shambles after Gordie, went to the NCAA 3/6yrs and had the program on the brink recruiting wise. Also - Bryce Cotton makes my shooting list, if only because of the literal transformation of his shot and the work he put in (he was also pretty good).
Great job. Brought back a lot of great memories. No problem with any of the selections. Would consider adding Marshon Brooks to scorers list. Well done.
Great article about the greatest of the great Friars. Having personally seen each one of these incredibly talented Friars I appreciate the thoughtfulness that went into this article. I also was reminded of a great number of teammates that helped contribute to the success of these talented players. Perhaps that would be an interesting sequel to this wonderful article. As always Craig, very well done. Thank you.
Fantastic article. I’d include Brooks on the all time transfer list, Dunn on the all Time D list and a personal fav Jamel Thomas on the scorers list.

Great article, thanks for the great work. Perhaps ran out of room but think Johnny Egan while mentioned as coach also deserved mention as player.

Love this article. Just wondering why Austin Croshere didn't get a mention?
Mike Riordan should have been on defensive team. One of the best I ever saw at Providence.
