Pull a Deacon athlete's name out of your butt thread

ED KARGBO-OKOROGIE

Two sport star. Broke a backboard at Cameron during pre-game warm-ups.
 
I could fill this with just old-school Wake soccer players, but another personal favorite was big Thomas Dooley, out of Glasgow -- big, rough center back who could also play a little, more than one would think at first glance. Great guy, too, and hilarious, incredible deep Glaswegian accent that was impossible to understand. My other favorite psycho overseas soccer player from the late 80s/early 90s was Mark Brereton, fucking crazy Irish dude. Got a kick out of both those guys when I was but a little dude.

Love this reference. Knew a bunch of those guys and he was the craziest

Three sport star based on the noises coming out of our next door neighbor's room and the reaction of her roommate upon entering that apartment when Say Hey and I were chilling on the walkway.

You didn't by any chance know Greg Harron did you?
