A bit of post bball season fun, a day early. Recasting Star Wars with todays Div 1 coaches
Apr 05, 2015 02:33 PM #1

Star Wars and College Basketball. Great match right? Yah, I thought so.
So, if I was the casting agent for Star Wars episode 4 today, I would pick
my cast based upon fictional likeness of character only. Slight malice intended ;)
And, please everyone feel free to change the cast. This is sposed to be fun!

The big 3 of Luke, Leia and Han would be filled by:
Freddy Hoiberg as Luke
Scott Drew as Leia
Bill Self as Han Solo

Larry Brown as Obi Wan

Jim Boeheim as Gran Moff Tarkin ( the officer that interrogates Leia )

Coach K as C3P0

Travis Ford as R2D2

Trent Johnson as Chewbacca

John Thompson as Darth Vader

Shaka Smart as Darth Sidious aka Emperor Palpatine (sp?)

John Calipari as Jabba the Hutt and the trash compactor snakey monster thing

Not that I am not a big Mangino fan, and I know you said bBall coach-but I would cast our big man as Jabba.
