Semi-OT: Athletes from your school you can't stand

What the hell, it's the offseason. Anybody got someone who fits in the above category?
For me, Bill Laimbeer is, far and away, at the very head of this class. The persona is one factor. The fact that he helped run a far better representative of ND -- Adrian Dantley -- off the Pistons is an even bigger factor.
But the biggest factor of all, for me, is that he was a total stiff at ND who turned out to be a serviceable player at the next level.
So who do you have?

Actually it was Isiah that got him traded for his pal Mark Aguirre.

Andre Ware and David Klingler....because they are the reason QBs are now tagged with the dreaded "system QB" title.

don't know i forgot this one: Dean Blevins. Blevins has always acted like (esp during his short-lived national sidelines reporting career) that HE was the starter on OU's 74 and 75 MNC teams. which is hilarious, since it was Steve Davis (22-1 as a starter) and everyone in the state of Oklahoma knows it. while Blevins did make a couple big plays in his career coming off the bench due to injuries to Thomas Lott (@tOSU in 77, sort of....more Elvis Peacock than anything...and upsetting NU in Lincoln in 76, he throws the hook and lateral pass to Steve Rhodes who pitches it back to, again, Peacock to convert a 3rd and forever and get OU in place for the winning score).....he's a first class douche as a human being i can attest.

I honestly can’t think of a single one. I guess they’re all just fine upstanding citizens.

I thought he was a lot better on In Living Color than he was on Saturday Night Live.
Seriously, why would I hate Jim Carey the hockey player? For leaving early? Most of our good players do. For not being that successful at the next level? Shit happens.
Did he rape your sister?

Isiah was the principal behind that, but Laimbeer was involved as well.

You could have said Chris Chellios because he bangs anything with two sets of lips.

I've met Chelly. I always liked him. Never heard that Chellios was a serial cheater, and I don't know if he's currently married. A lot of people cheat on their spouses. I've never understood it. But if I decided I couldn't stand anyone who did it, I'd probably have a lot of time to myself. Still, if you're right, he's lost my respect. I imagine he'll get over that.

What's not to like? He plays hard every night. He also recently got his hair shaved off to raise funds for a charity. They can't all be Korrie Lucious.

Yeah, I know what you are saying. He has earned quite a reputation with the bar staff at his two metro Detroit locations. He is a cool dude once you meet him.

I agree on both counts.

Outside of the obvious few thugs I'd go with Tommie Frazier. He's not a thug but he is quite the douche, several folks I know had bad experiences when they met him and when he was HC of a local NAIA team over half the team quit.

Vince Young.
He was a great Longhorn and the win against USC was one of the all time greatest football games, but he's been a complete embarassment ever since.
