Banana Nana, Hassan Fofana, Hey Hey Goodbye

There are certain rules that fans have about players on opposing hoops teams. You always hate the good white players, you might like the really good dunkers (depends on how good an overall player they are and if they dunked on your team) and you always like the really, REALLY big guys. I don't know why these things are true, but they are. Don't question.

Case in point, I loved Big Jelly at Florida State a few years ago. The guy was rarely effective, but you just have to love a player that has his own moons.

The closest recent player was the gargantuan and beautifully named Hassan Fofana at Maryland. Unfortunately, Mr. Fofana (true story, his middle name is Banana Nana) is transfering. When he leaves Maryland, he's sure to leave a series of lakes and giant boulders as he scars the land.
