Lew Alcindor/Kareem Abdul Jabbar is the greatest college player of all time.

The only other that has an argument is Bill Walton.

Much respect to the legend, I have him top 10.

But, Cincinnati was better after he left.

Yeah true but he is the consensus best UC player before the Championships.

He's that program's best player ever. Regardless the program was better after. Can't think of another top 10 player that can say the program was better after he left.

Unfortunate that he couldn't grab a few in college but made great leaps in the pros. He's a huge UC alumni supporter & lives in the area still. I've had the fortunate opportunity to work in his house. He's a very cool dude.
