Okay, so today I wanted to dig into the 2014 Wichita State basketball roster. I’ve always been a huge fan of college hoops, and that team was something special. They had a crazy undefeated run that year, right? I started by just trying to remember some of the big names from that squad.
First, I hit up the usual spots for sports info. I just went on a search engine, put in “2014 wichita state basketball roster,” and boom, tons of results. It was kinda overwhelming at first, honestly.
I spent a good chunk of time just browsing through different websites, seeing which ones had the most comprehensive info. Some were cluttered, some were missing details. I wanted it all: player names, numbers, positions, stats, everything.
Key Players That Stood Out
- Fred VanVleet: The guy was a rock at point guard. Now he’s a big deal in the NBA, but back then he was already showing flashes of brilliance. I made sure to note down his assists and steals.
- Cleanthony Early: Total beast. The dude could score from anywhere. I focused on getting his points per game and rebounding numbers right.
- Ron Baker: Another NBA guy now. He was a great all-around player. I pulled his scoring, rebounds, and assists to get a full picture.
After I felt like I had a good grasp of the main players, I wanted to fill out the rest of the roster. I was looking for guys like Tekele Cotton, who was a defensive stopper, and other role players who contributed to that amazing season. It took some cross-referencing between a few different sites to make sure I didn’t miss anyone.
I’m not gonna lie, it took a while to put it all together. There was a lot of back and forth, checking stats, and making sure everything was accurate. But by the end, I had a pretty solid list of the entire 2014 Wichita State roster. It was awesome to take a trip down memory lane and appreciate how good that team really was.
