Almost need to break it down into "Pre-Arena" and "Post-Arena", or something like that. My first memories begin when Donnie May was a senior, so all I really remember is the Post-Arena group.
Of those, we had a lot of great smaller players. Smitty. Johnny D. Sly. Velvet. B-Rob. Paxson Jr. All of these had great careers, start-to-finish.
Only a handful of bigger guys excelled in that time frame. P. Wally. Ash Man. Special K. But other than P (who led the world in rebounding in 1997-98), the rest pale in comparison to Finkel, Uhl, Meineke, and Horan. I never saw any of these last 4 play (and 3 of them ended their UD careers before I was even born), but when you compare their stats to those of their contemporaries, they were clearly dominant players in their eras.
A cop-out, maybe, but too hard to pick just 10.
