Really? No one got this? Even after this clue?
JFC, people...
And you people call yourselves fans?
That is correct.You're up!

I know, right? I thought that was crazy. I just don't like to sit on a question for too long. I prefer we have quick turnarounds and multiple questions in one day. It took close to 24 hours from when I got the previous question correct, til someone came up with the Tom Gola answer. Too long of a wait, IMO.
Make sure you study up on your mascots!
Name the NBA mascot that was arrested for dealing weed during his tenure? Ok, it's Benny the Bull.
Now on to the real question. 7 players have won NCAA, NBA and Olympic gold. Some all time greats obviously including Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson and Bill Russel. Can you name the other 4?

Questions with multiple answers are always more challenging. I feel pretty good about three of my answers, not 100%, but I'll go with:
Bob Cousy
Jerry Lucas
John Havlicek
Fourth pick: Tom Gola

I know you gave the answer but my first guess was Benny. Dude seems like a party animal out there.
Darn. Okay. I'll give you more guess and take a pause after this to allow others to get their guesses in.
KC Jones
Walt Hazzard
Scott May

Yeah that I wasn't sure of. Just knew he was in the mix there with his school and them being good around an Olympic year.
I think Lovellete might be correct, though. Didn't consider him.
And then there are guys that easily could have achieved the trifecta, like Kareem, Bill Walton, Isiah Thomas, Glen Rice, Antoine Walker, and Rip Hamilton. If only they played in the Olympics.

Still missing one correct answer to go along with MJ, Magic, Russel, KC Jones, Lovellette and Lucas.
Borden will say we aren't fans for not knowing but he hasn't answered any question yet. LaughingI bet @IUfanBorden knows, but he says his tags don't work.
I looked it up.
Really? He's very well known. Sure, he's the worst of the 7 players, but he's still a pretty famous player.
Your idea of very well known and mine are completely different but you are a CBB savant.
He is well known, but he's a turd. Wasn't even that good, imo.
Hmmm. He may be well known up there since he seems to be involved locally around that area but that isn’t a name CBB fans around the country are all going to know. That would be like knowing every All American of the last 45 years that had a small amount of success in the NBA. JMO
It's a difficult question for sure.
You can probably go ahead and call this one. I got 2 right. schoonerwest got 1 right. No way for anyone to surpass me. Sounds like the final answer is semi-tricky. I'm drawing a blank on any other possibilities, especially trying to consider a lower-profile player.
he's worked as a broadcaster for the last 25 years or so including long stints doing CBB nationally. I'd say he's more well known than some random All Americans over the past 45 years.
Maybe it's an age thing. I'm 50 and consider him well known.
That's why he's so well-known, IMO. For broadcasting rather than basketball, at least for those of us younger than 50 or so.
Maybe so. I've just never known him for anything CBB related but I never paid much attention to the announcers.
Nice! I did guess Scott May. Thought about Kent Benson, too. So, I was sort of on the right track.
Okay, hopefully this one won't take too long to answer...
Who was the first school to make it to the Final Four for the 2nd time? There are actually two answers, so I'll accept either school.
Can I answer a 3rd time? I think I know it based on another question/answer.
