Bishop. It was sad we only got Bishop for 2 seasons, but he in K-State lore is responsible for getting us on the most realistic verge of winning a national title. And we would have won it had the end of that one game not happened. I say all that, and I love Jacob Pullen.

Surprised no mention of Mitch. A #1 is difficult, but Mitch, Bish, Jake, Denis, AB, and Darren are a pretty amazing group of 6.

Between those 2, I'd lean towards Bishop because it feels like he was more of an exceptional star of his team, especially if you isolate the offense.

I don't think Pullen was on Bishop's level compared to the rest of the field. Bishop was definitely one of the top few QBs in the nation. Pullen was something more like maybe a top 10ish guard.

bishop played on my summer intramural bball team, such a nice dude and incredibly athletic
nice to meet athletes of that caliber with humility

I still have a special liking of Anthony Beane.

These two quotes right here show why _FAN is the second-best poster on this blog (behind Tom).

I think it's probably a tie for me. 1a and 1a. Then you skip 2,3,4 and 5 and start the rest of the list at 6.

Beas is easily 2, after the 1a /1b scenario.  Then jamar, curt, bill or something along those lines.

Definitely Sproles for me.  So so easy to root for that guy.

Over half the games his freshman season.

Also, Pullen's 28 minute, 20 point, and 4 assist night when we beat KU was followed by 8 minutes, 3 points, and 0 assists against Missouri.

jacob pullen kissed the floor at center court on senior day. jacob pullen cried in his last game. jacob pullen owns or is 2nd on nearly every point guard related statistical category record at k-state. jacob pullen is IN SHAPE! jacob pullen was best in the biggest games. jacob pullen scored 20 vs ku his freshman year and 38 vs ku his senior year. jacob pullen dribbled a ball off his shin in Ames on his way to a GW layup. jacob pullen did not let his team slip into the NIT his senior year. jacob pullen has the most double digit scoring games in k-state history. jacob pullen lobbed to beasley for the GW layup at Blake Griffin's Oklahoma sooners his freshman year. jacob pullen kissed the floor at center court on senior day. jacob pullen.
