I was just thinking how much I am going to miss ARob after this year, he is the silent leader of this team and he will be missed. He is probable my favorite Clone of all time as he has been a stud and unlike some good players, has kept his mouth shut and puts it all on the field.
Who is/was your favorite Cyclone?
- Thread starter UNIGuy4Cy
- Start date
I watched Troy Davis, Lane Danielsen, Brett Meyer, Seneca Wallace, Sage Rosenfells, and many others play. Got to play in the pep band when Fred Hoiberg and the clones lost to Kentucky in the second round, and saw Jeff Grayer and Jeff Hornacek and Barry Stevens play some great b-ball. My favorite player though is Ellis Hobbs. That guy could play, and though he didn't get the press that others got, he left it all on the field every play, every game I was at or watched. A lot of guys that were good though...
Justice Thigpen, Donnell Bivens in BB, Blaise Bryant, Ennis Heywood and TD in FB, Rob Steiger in Wrestling.
Enis the Menace.
Ellis has always been one of my favorites too (this is in the football forum). Also for me...Dave Brcka.

I could also go back to David Archer a while ago. I remember listening to the Clones beating Iowa with him at QB as a kid on AM radio, helping my dad on the farm. Enis was a great player, too. Too long between him and the next 1000 yard back at ISU.
The only player who could jump as high as Donnell was Rashon Clark, he's a definite honorable mention.
Football: Bret Oberg Hoops: Hoiberg Wrestling: Steve Hamilton and Dan Troupe ( Troupe got more *** than any 190-pounder in history) Baseball: Tom Vantiger. these are my faves that I saw in person and were enrolled when I was.
OT:
I would pick Mike Busch in baseball. I think he also was a good football player. I've always thought that they should have kept baseball. Maybe with the extra TV money, JP will...
