I would put Frankie Williams above them ALL. If you saw him play, he could do everything on the court and no one could stop him. He did not have a strong pro career but we are talking Illini . A MUCH better shooter and driver than Harper. I agree with OB and Pru... no one better as an Illini than HRF.This is exactly my order. I love them all for various skills but for a pure point guard I would pick Derek Harper every time.
Harper set a record by improving his scoring average for (I think ) 8 straight years in the pros . But he started out low and got better. Great defensive player too. But as a point guard Frankie was unmatched... IMHO... and I go back to the Les Buzboom days!
