The All ACC Ugly Team started as a joke on the Raleigh radio sports show hosted by Gary Dornburg. This was the show where a drunk from UNC would call in periodically and scream "choking Dean Smith" to the chortles of the State, Duke, WF, and UVa fand that could hear the broadcast.

Anyway, Carolina had this kid Rich Yoneker with the preppy nickname "Chicky". This was before acne medication and he had a face like a pizza to go with pale white skin, freckles and red hair. The essence of the joke was that he had made the all ACC ugly team twice in the same year.

Political correctness being what it is and acne medications and blow dryers for hair the annual list has fallen by the wayside. State has two for an all time team and one honorable mention.

Jeremy Hyatt was a black kid with a skin condition that cause him to look like he was molting. It made his hair red and he showed big freckles. He wasn't ugly but he was unusual. Tiny Pinder was from the Caribbean and was not just black like an American black person, but he had African dark skin. The odd thing was a really weird nose that look like the nose of a particular monkey - the probosces monkey. Cozel McQueen was normal for a 6 11 man but had this huge birth mark/keloid on one shoulder that seemed as big as your fist.

Mike O'Koren played at UNC with a horrible pizza face but he had dark hair so he was not as bad as Chicky. Geoff Crompton looked like an escape from the Duke Rice Clinic when he was at UNC, He had a metabalic disorder before I knew there was such a thing. Duke had some kids in the 70's with shoulder acne that looked like necrotizing faciatitis and they were not just white but pale. The damnedest hair on a player was Tree Rollins fro back in the 70's - you could almost hide the basketball in it. He played at Clemson. Mike Gminski at Duke always had an ugly haircut.

It's amazing what advances in dermatology and fashion have done over the years. Even though it's probably considered political incorrect or judgement, it would be interesting to see the ugliest, weirdest looking, or most outrageous looking players at BC, Syracuse, Pitt, ND, VT, FSU and Miami

Come to think of it, Glen Sudhop at State was pretty damn ugly too. You would also have to put Herb Sendek on that list as well as the Fridge for coaches. Some nights sweaty Gary would fit.

Ah the good old days, when juvenile insults were respected and rejoindered by comments about coloring in the University's library books by star players.

I take it you must have been one of those teen pretty boys back in your day. As someone that has suffered from severe acne from about the 7th grade to the present I have to say kiss my pimply ass.

You are much too serious.

As someone who caught chickenpox at the age of 24 I have much sympathy for you, however I used the mishap to get a better deal on a car as I told the salesman that I would hang around the lot scaring people unless he made me a better deal.

Sam Cassell was an all time great who belongs on that list.

FSU fans love Sam, he was a character and great ball player.

I've seen picks of him with his head compared to one of the "Greys" those space aliens. Actually he seems pretty normal to me. You need to find someone uglier.

If you go back to the days of Brylcream there is enough oil on some of the players heads to fry food. That's when you get the real pizza faces.

Dean Smith and Norm Sloan could have had an ugly sports coat contest that would kill a dog.

Chick Yonakor could have had perfect alabaster skin and he still would have made that squad.

Who is the Duke player who looked like a Sharpei?

ETA: Shane Battier

I'm only half serious. It does bring back some memories I'd rather have kept back in the recesses of the mind. 😬
