Question Most Dominant player to wear #33?

I was looking through some old college basketball magazines, and I noticed many of the greatest college baskteball players wore #33. Begs the question - Who was the most dominant player (not named Jabbar/Alcindor) to wear #33?

BTW if ya vote & post, I'll rep ya and get ya a few thousand uCash points.

Re: Most Dominant player to wear #33?

There is no question. The conversation starts and ends with Lew Alcindor, who is arguably the most dominant ever...regardless of uniform number.

Re: Most Dominant player to wear #33?

To me Larry Bird is always one of the greatest college basketball players because he did so much with so little. Sure Magic beat him but Magic's team was better and Larry was a beast all by himself...

Was he doing all this against good competition? BTW, how many teams got into the NCAA Tournament in '79? And how did ISU make it in? Won their conference? Oh, and does someone have a link where I could see who they played to get to the title game.
