CATS - BY THE NUMBERS: WHO IS THE VERY BEST? - #31

In sports one of the highest honors a player can recieve is to have his number retired, never to be used again. In Chicago there will be no more #23 for the Bulls, no #3 in New York for the Yankees, or #13 in Miami for the Dolphins. Just mentioning these sacred numbers and people will know exactly who is being discussed.

But what about at UK? Here at the University of Kentucky they don't retire the numbers, but the jersey's of the greats who wear them. But what if the they did retire the numbers? Who would be the very best? Would #24 be Mashburn or Walker? Would #10 be Dampier, Minniefield, or Bogans?

Here are the voting results so far:

#00: Tony Delk Vote for #00

I hate the way people outside of the state talk like he was a bust, because he couldn't play. Had nothing to do with his skills, just had terrible breaks with injuries. Looks like Portland is catching it again with Oden.

Comment by Blue Blood 00 on June 19, 2009 at 3:42pm: I loved to watch the all out hustle of Dale Brown. Will never forget him starting off the 93 final four game against Mich with what was building up to be the greatest game of his career, made some unbelieveable shots hanging under the basket. He went out with a injury that game the same way he played, diving for a ball.

Comment by Grammy Rosebud on June 15, 2009 at 9:13am: Dale Brown was a pretty good player but none of these that I know anything about can be placed above Sam. Bowie will get my vote every time!

Comment by Ryan Lemond on June 14, 2009 at 9:32am: Kirk Chiles being picked over Sam Bowie...........that would be like drafted Bowie over Jordan.
