Matt G.

LMFAO! He made one all-conference 2/3 team. He was average, at best, in his only post-season experience.... Matt had a nice senior season. And as the OP said, he stuck it out during just about the worst period in the history of the program. He also had a really nice few game streak in the conference season. But he doesn't even start on my all-decade team, to say the least calling him the greatest Hawk ever. Who are my starters?BrunnerOliverHaluskaLukeReggie Horner would back up DeanMatt would back up Luke
What the hell kind of decade are you using to form this team? Oliver played from 1997-2001 and Gatens played from 2008-2012. So you have players that played in 3 different decades (90's, 2000's and 2010's) on your all-decade team?

the 2000 -2010 decade would work
 




Greatest player? Definitely not. I think I could probably name at least 15 off the top of my head who were better players. Greatest Hawkeye? That's a case that can be made while staying reasonable. But no way is he the greatest player.

Lester
Murray Wier
Don Nelson
Stokes
Marble
Hansen
Downtown Freddie Brown
John Johnson
Horton
Gamble
B.J.
Woolridge
Street
Settles
Murray
Deano
Evans
Recker (pretty comparable after the injury)
Horner
Haluska
Brunner

You forgot Pierre Pierce on that list. 18/5/4 seasons with 2.5 steals don't just grow on trees around here.
