Simple: the best players. Not most talented, not best career. The best players. Bradley and Tim Thomas for their one season would be included 2-5. Details why. No wrong answers, just my answers :)

Mine:
Foye, to me he was simply the best player I saw outside of Kerry.
Alvin, I think this comes down to Alvin and Timmy T. Alvin was not as talented but he was better in that season.
Timmy T: Lost is how good he was without really trying. Could have been a multiple NBA AS if he dedicated himself to hoops. Still had a really good career. IMO, far and way the most talented guy on this list.
Here is where I have trouble. What do you do with Michael Bradley. He was really freaking good in that one year. I tend to think of him as empty calories so I'm going with Scottie or Dante. I think Dante was better in 09 but Scottie's senior year was special. So I'm going with Scottie.

Others:
I wasn't a huge Nova fan during the Doug West years. I loved the fact he was from Altoona and married a girl from Wheeling, WV. At least I believe both those things to be true. I remember him both in college and the NBA. However, I didn't see him enough to give him a proper rating. So he's an incomplete for me.
Ray would also have to be the next guy for me. He was a great, great player. Lowry would be on my team if I"m playing a game but he wasn't as good as these guys individually when he left as a sophomore. He had no game beyond 12 feet. However, you could see the potential which he somehow exceeded at the next level.

I'm probably missing one or two but that's my list. Look forward to hearing from others. In particular, what do you do with Timmy T, Bradley and Doug West.
