There have been a few throughout time that have stood out, but you can look at a variety of other teams and see big man after big man helping them in the paint. That hasn’t exactly been the case for the Orange and Blue.
Sure, I remember some of the Illinois No. 5’s over the last few decades. Maverick Morgan was the most recent. He started to develop into a solid No. 5 toward the end of his career, but John Groce was never able to land a big man who could take the team over the top.
