Leading players of this era included high-scoring guard Reggie Smith (1992–94), imposing center Monte O'Quinn (1992–96). Another guard, Andrell Hoard (1995–97), won the 1997 ESPN National Slam Dunk Championship.[3] Guard Victor Snipes (1991–93) led NCAA Division I in steals per game as sophomore in 1991–92.[4]
