10. Travon Woodall – Pittsburgh Panthers (2009-2013)

Career stats: 8.0 ppg 2.4 rpg 4.2 apg

Technically a five-year player due to a medical redshirt, Woodall was the best passer for the Panthers – whether he was a starter or on the bench. He had his best season in 2012, where he averaged 11.7 ppg and 6.1 asp, ranking in towards the top in the Big East.

9. Lamar Patterson – Pittsburgh Panthers (2010-2014)

Career stats: 9.5 ppg 3.9 rpg 2.9 apg

Another five-year player, Patterson’s experience was needed in the program’s final days in the Big East, as well as their first season in the ACC. The fifth-year senior saved his best for last, averaging a team-high 17.1 ppg and 4.3 apg, while pulling down five rebounds a game also.

8. Vladimir Brodziansky – TCU Horned Frogs (2016-2018)

 Career stats: 13.0 ppg 5.1 rpg 0.8 apg

When Dixon arrived at TCU, the junior was already on board. Brodziansky played a huge role in leading the program’s turnaround, leading the team in scoring both times. As a senior, he averaged 15.0 ppg and 5.1 rpg, in helping the Horned Frogs get back to the NCAA Tournament.

7. Brad Wannamaker – Pittsburgh Panthers (2008-2011)

Career stats: 8.1 ppg 3.9 rpg 3.4 apg

His stats won’t jump off the table, but Wannamaker had his hand in everything his senior season, averaging 11.7 ppg, 5.2 rpg and 5.1 apg. While another guard got more press as the scoring leading on that 2011 team, the senior guard Wannamaker was both the facilitator and top defender of that 28-win team.
