I got lost down a rabbit hole and started looking at stats and came up with this:
My EMU all decade 2010-2020 team.
PG - Carlos Medlock
SG - Ray Lee
SF - Tim Bond
PF - Brandon Bowdry
C - James Thompson
Second Unit:
Talley, Derek Thompson, Karrington Ward, Elijah Minnie, Riley
Rest of the squad:
Darrell Lampley, Ty Groce, Jamel Harris, Glenn Bryant, Daylen Harrison.
I feel bad for not getting Dobbins and Mangum in there.
Boubacar Toure has to be in there somewhere. Probably over Jamell Harris for me. But I agree with everything else. You nailed the starting lineup. I often thought about what Murphy could’ve done with scorers like Medlock and Bowdry.

I think Toure was really good.
I thought long and hard about where him, Willie Mangum, and Justin Dobbins might fit in this list, but at the end of the day, with Thompson and Riley, I’d rather have Harris’ athleticism over Dobbins and Toure. I wasn’t sure what to do with Mangum.
Wow, I agree with Sam. You nailed most of this, KPJ! I also agree that Boubacar Toure should be in there. He averaged 9.7 rpg in his senior year (and 10.7 ppg). Although, I know what you are talking about with Jammell Harris, I always liked that player- but I think my recollection does not corroborate his overall stats. But man, Harris’s blocks were fun to watch!
Otherwise, great job on this list, KPJ!!
I would say pretty spot on minus Toure, but those who you have ahead of him are worthy as well.
I love this list.
Tim Bond was worth the price of admission every game. And he would have flourished in just about any system.

Pure athlete and a hard worker. I would have like to have seen him try WR on the football team.
