Favorite 6th men?

No idea how he would curl around a screen at 100 mph and then get squared up and nail it over and over, but he had a knack for it. So cool to watch
Hope he gets more opportunity to shoot 3s this year - and hit them - so he can be a 3 and D asset like Chris Babb was for Fred.
He shot it like he was shooting at a milk crate nailed to a telephone pole back home in Stringtown.
He was a perfect 6th man from the stand point that he was on fire before he even left the scorers table checking into the game. Something I like about Cujo as well - he needs no time to warm up to the game, he can hit a shot 3 seconds after checking into the game.
Tyrus McGee... not even close IMO. Greatest shooting stroke I've ever seen. But you couldn't sleep on his sheer athleticism either, as seen below...
Stevie is one of my favorite players but I wouldn't call him a 6th man as he only came off the bench 17 out of almost 100 games he played his final 3 years at Iowa State.
There was a great article about glue guys in SI right before the NCAA tournament in 2000. They called Stevie the perfect glue guy.
I'll see if I can find it...
EDIT: Found it...
Glue Guys To survive in the NCAAs, teams need selfless heroes who hold them together so they can stick it to opponents
Twenty seconds remained to be played, St. John's led Rutgers bythree, and the Red Storm's season lay in the balance. Theproblem was where the ball lay--in the

I would say so. He only started 7 of 36 games played that year but averaged 20.3 minutes.
That's what I thought. He could be a candidate, although his numbers were similar to Matt Thomas that season. Doesn't approach CuJo territory for sure.

I feel like we are forgetting a bunch of guys. Did Houge start or come off bench?

McGee is second but Curtis Jones is waaaaaay better than any 6th man we’ve ever had imo
Curt might be our best player.
My profile picture is with Tyrus McGee from meeting him at Cy’ House… so yeah I’m going with him.
Hogue started I think every game both seasons.
It sorta seems like he was off-the-bench for a while, but apparently now. (Similar feeling I had about Chris Babb, but he pretty much was in starting unit).
Edit: Nader could qualify as 6th role in 2014-15, but his impact wasn't significant stat-wise, on consistent basis, if I recall.
