[QUOTE="jmwillini, post: 1796809, member: 1715"] This came from references to Pete Maravich in the hoops recruiting thread. Due to either advances in medicine or just better luck in avoiding injuries, who would you have liked to have seen have a full career? Top of my head, (and yes I am old, so I am forgetting obvious examples, lol): [B]Baseball[/B] Sandy Koufax Tony Oliva JR Richard Bo Jackson [B]Football[/B] Gale Sayers Billy Sims Joe Namath (Dude could run & scramble at Alabama pre-injury.) Bo Jackson [B]Basketball[/B] Pete Maravich Grant Hill Derrick Rose Greg Oden/Sam Bowie/Yao Ming/Bill Walton [/QUOTE]
