Players that have been around forever

Submitted by allinforM on

Seems like Trevon Hughes, who just killed Michigan last night, is on about his seventh year of eligibility. He is to Wisconsin basketball what Doug Dutch was to Michigan football.

What other players from other sports seem to never graduate?

Jordan Shipley. Did you know that he and Colt McCoy were roommates!???! And, I guess I could say McCoy seemed like he was there for a long time, too.

Sometimes I wonder if I have multi-personalities when I read this site, because I was thinking this EXACT thing (as the OP) last night when they were showing Hughes. Like, did I post this in my sleep or something...? Weird...

I'm fairly convinced that Illinois basketball has been suiting the same big white guy at center for about 15 years. They just change the name on the jersey every 4-5 seasons (now it's "Tisdale").

Closer to home, big John Navarre QB'd us for many, many moons. (Henne started even more games, but somehow his career seemed to go by more quickly.)
