Starting the best player thread got me to thinking.
Who was your favorite bench rider at UK ever? You know the guy that fans scream shoot every time he touches the ball? Who was your favorite ever?
When I think bench warmer, fan favorite comes to mind. So many in state players have went on to UK to be bench warmers and somebody that the fans loved.

Who was your favorite?

Mark Krebs. I've been going to UK games since the early 80's, but I have never heard louder pops for anyone besides Krebs.

I wouldn't count Mills, Harrison, or LeRoy Byrd as well as definitely not James Lee as benchwarmers. As for mine, the human victory cigar Steve Massiello and Todd Svoboda.
