The traitor or the scumbag?

Ryan Robertson

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
For four years, every time Ryan Robertson touched the ball inside the Hearnes Center's walls, the Mizzou home crowd let him have it. The St. Charles West product spurned his home state school to play for the hated Jayhawks, and even though his team had little to no success at Hearnes in this time (Kansas beat Mizzou his senior year, and he taunted the student section after the game ... then Kansas turned right around and lost to Mizzou at Allen Fieldhouse), the hatred never did subside. Robertson was a reasonably successful player, averaging 7.4 points per game for his career, but success and hatred do not always have a direct correlation.
Kelvin Sampson

He cried after every call that didn't go his way. He yelled "REBOUND" as opposing players were in their free-throw shooting motion. He brought Eduardo Najera to the Big 12. He ruined the denim look for an entire generation of Missouri, Texas and Oklahoma State fans. And he beat Missouri. A LOT. When he got Oklahoma in trouble for impermissible phone calls, he left town before any sanctions kicked in. And when he got to Indiana, he committed the same violations. And just when you thought karma had put him in his place, it appears he might be falling up -- he's apparently a leader for the Detroit Pistons' coaching vacancy.
Kelvin Sampson was so sleazy and unlikable that even Oklahoma fans dislike him now. But Mizzou fans disliked him first. Passionately.
