Let's not compare Allen Iverson talk to Coach K supposedly saying that Randy Livingston was the best basketball player he's ever seen. Make it stop.

Just like Mitchell Robinson playing overseas. So where can I watch those games at?

Jamie Brandon was definitely top 5. Billed as the best guard out of Chicago since Isiah Thomas.

Mitchell Robinson had a better chance of going overseas than ever stepping foot on the LSU campus. The reality of that was actually very close. No chance in hell Coach K says Randy Livingston is the best player he's ever laid eyes on lol.

Practiced and played right before Randy Livingston at the top 24 in 1991. Everyone was talking about him being the next goat. A knee injury that summer and another his freshman year against Arkansas and his knees were shot forever. He played in the NBA on 10 day contracts for years and limped on both knees.

Coach K said best HIGH SCHOOL player, not college or pro. And until or if I find a link of him saying that, you won't believe it. I do however, know what I heard him say at least TWICE on his xm radio show. We seem to be at an impasse on this issue.

A pretty good list, but at this point, I would not have Naz Reid on there, since basketball signing day has not yet arrived.

I would put Chris Jackson in his place. Also, not sure where Bob Petit fits, as he was outstanding in his day as well.

lol as soon as you find it, please send it to me. Coach K must have been on them bath salts when he spoke of this nonsense if indeed he did.

Kobe Bryant, Kevin Garnett, LeBron James all said to have Coach K give them a call. They have never heard of Randy Livingston.

Randy played ten years off and on in the league on a bad knee, he was one of the best to come out of Louisiana, Dale Brown screwed the pooch on this kid. As far as the best ever, Don't remember the hype on Pete, but CJ, Shaq, Stanley seemed to be hyped as big as I can ever remember. Rudy Macklin was a head scratcher how DB pulled him out of Kentucky and of course the briefcase full of cash on Abernathy to get John Williams. As far impact recruits, Stromile was JB's coming out guy. Brady had many 5 star guy, and Tyrus was the biggest surprise. We have had some serious talent come thru this town, be prepared for some fun with the guys Coach Wade is going after. He aint scared. We got 3 guys on the NBA all time list which I think only one other college team has.

Blakeney was very highly ranked coming out of HS.
