Come on guys, why does everyone lookover John Williams - - he carried a team to the Final Four. Go back and look at that roster - not very impressive

John Williams would definitely be on my top 5 team...He was a man among boys when he played in the McDonalds high school game and did not disappoint at LSU, except for that Chris Webber-esque moment he had against UGA.
John Williams was an incredibly smooth and awesome basketball player.
ETA: I'll even go as far to say that if John Williams were a senior in high school today, he'd be considered one of the top 3 players in the nation.

What about Tyrus Thomas?
almost averaged a double-double a game and was Atlanta Regional MVP

You are correct sir. Everybody is also forgetting about Scales. A great player in any era.

Don't know about a particular roster, but some of my all-time favorites:
Torris Bright
Ronald Dupree
Jabari Smith
Brad Bridgewater
Stromile Swift
Jermaine Williams
Vernel Singleton
Clarance Caesar (will never forget Hawthorne when he used to yell "Ceeeeezer!" and his unorthodox shot)
Ronnie Henderson
Rogers Washington
Maurice "Mo" Carter
Glen "Big Baby" Davis
Tyrus Thomas
Tasmin Mitchell
Lamont Roland
Brian Beshara
Geert Hammink
Justin Anderson (dude if I remember could bury a 3)
Marcus Thornton
Chris Jackson
Paul Marshall
and forgive me, Jaime Brandon
But of course I began watching around 1990 or so.

AT LSU, he was, imo, the 4th best player ever. Pete, CJ, Shaq, John Williams, Rudy
Then Jerry Reynolds, Cook, Ethan Martin, Bass, Thornton in no order
