But did he do it before June 1984?
Iām a huge MJ fan. Iāll go to my grave arguing with my 20 something kids that heās greater than LeBron. He was a great college player. Iām just not sure Iād put him with Ralph & Thompson as a college player.

Is a great debate but MJ was unreal in that ACC. Len Bias?
If Mt Rushmore is strictly stats ala Hansborough for me it misses true greatness. Nothing against Psycho T!

Oh MJ absolutely did it before his NBA career. Ask Rick Carlisle. Was just transformative shit we all saw him doing. Different like Ralph and Thompson
Everyone I know always says Phil Ford is the best ACC player ever. But I never watched him

Jordan is in the top 4 is debatable for sure. top 10 heād be a lock. But thereās been some serious greats in the ACC, top 4 is a slim cut haha

Yeah, I knew when I posted that, it would get a reaction.
MJ was ahead of his time as a guard. As great as Olajawon was, Iāve always wondered if Houston ever regretted taking himā¦especially having just drafted Ralph, before his injuries happened. Or him & Drexler together in Portland would have been crazy.

Reece! and Ryan Dunn were so good, they found a way to make Jordanās college resume look even better 40 years after he left UNC.

Love this debate. My first response was āJordan..hmmā then like @HoozGotNext I saw the stats and said yeah he makes it. Plus itās hard to ignore his post college career

So Ralph is the greatest ACC player ever? Tough to say no on personal accolades and playing 4 years at UVa

Ryan Dunn was the stocks founder. Either him or Cory Alexander, nobody mentions it more.

Who we talking about here? MJ Collins from Vandy? We putting him on Rushmore based on his time at VPI? Seems like a stretchā¦

MJ once asked me how it was going. I told him it was going well thanks. A fist bump ensued. It was awesome.

That tall official that walked him off the court is Darren White who is the son of a longtime assigner on the West Coast. I worked with two of those guys back in the day

Damn. Loved reading Feinsteinās stuff. I once had a very brief interaction with him at the 2006(?) ACC tournament, and he seemed like a nice dude.
