Where Are They Now?
Former NCAA Superstars—Are They Having Hoop Dreams or Hoop Nightmares?
For most sports fans, the NCAA basketball tournament known as March Madness is all about bracketology. For the young players on the court, it's win or go home. Snakkle selected a slew of college b-ball heroes from the '80s, '90s, and '00s. (The latter is typically referred to as "the aughts." Yes, we're nerdy.) Some went on to NBA greatness, some not so much. All of them were certified sports superstars who helped their college teams snag a championship. Is your favorite on our list? If not, leave a comment and let us know! We can take it. (A tip of the cap to our friend Vin Getz of Sports List of the Day for his kind assistance.) By Brett Singer

Sean May, North Carolina—Then
At 27, Sean May is the youngest player on our list. He attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and led the team to an NCAA championship in 2005, receiving the obligatory-for-this-list Final Four most outstanding player award. It was UNC Chapel Hill’s first championship since 1993, and May was indeed outstanding, scoring 26 points in the final game.
