2024 College Football: All-Name Team

This is one of my favorite posts to do every year, but due to a death in the family last year, I was unable to make a list last season. I found a bunch of fresh names, and some long time favorites.

What makes a great college football name?

A good litmus test is if it works as a potential pro wrestling name, it works in college football. It also works if a name sounds like a verb, phrase, a certain body part or just a bad ass football name that makes them sound tough.

We went through every team in the top two divisions in the NCAA. We went through ever single name and picked out the ones that were funny and some names we just wish we had.

2022-23 College Basketball – All-Name Team

We haven’t lost a ton of guys off of last year’s list due to the extra year of eligibility many guys are taking advantage of, so we will have some fifth (or even sixth) year guys soon.

We picked through every Division-I college basketball roster and a few smaller schools for our list. This year’s class is strong and is a better version of last year’s All-Name Team.

My name is Bobby Roberts, so I am often jealous of people with unique names. The most unique thing about my name is that I was not born ‘Robert Roberts’, Bobby is my given name. I don’t know too many grown men named Bobby.

This list consists of names that we wished he had and ones we find humorous. Enjoy!

2022 College Football: All-Name Team

This is one of my favorite posts to do every year, but due to all the knowns about the college football season at this point last year, we didn’t compile a list. We are happy to bring this back this year and debut some new names.

2021-22 College Basketball – All-Name Team

We lost a few players on last year’s College Basketball All-Name Team (I wish the best of luck in the future to guys like Goodnews Kpegeol). We have a lot of returning faces due to the NCAA giving another year of eligibility to athletes due to the pandemic, but we do have a decent amount of new names on this year’s list.

My name is Bobby Roberts, so of all the people who can write a post poking fun at names, it’s me. I’m always asked if my real name is Robert Roberts (it’s not) or if my name is fake (it’s not).

2020-21 College Basketball – All-Name Team

We didn’t lose that many players on last year’s College Basketball All-Name Team. We were in a little bit of a rebuilding phase after losing many the year before. We actually have many new faces/names on this year’s list.

All-Name Team – 2020 XFL Players

2020 XFL All Name TeamThe XFL starts next month and we went through the current rosters and players who were drafted into the league. There were some players that were once in our college football all-name teams, which was a fun bonus.

There’s always some one-and-done players, but we lost some all-timers like Tacko Fall and Bol Bol. This is more like a rebuilding year, but there are a handful of great new names that head up this year’s All-Name Team.

2018-19 College Basketball – All-Name Team

There’s always a lot of turnover on the College Basketball All-Name Team. Many good names only appear on the list for one year and then they either fail out of school or enter the NBA Draft. There are a few names on this year’s list that will no doubt be a one-and-done entrant.

2018 MLB Draft: All-Name Team

The 2018 MLB Amateur Draft took place this week. Over 1,200 young men were selected and a few of them could be all-time greats.

The Detroit Tigers started the draft off by selecting one of the best college pitchers in the draft, Casey Mize. Detroit desperately needs pitching now and Mize is expected to be fast-tracked through the minors as he was one of the most MLB-ready pitchers in this year’s draft pool. I expect Mize will be in the Majors by late-2019 or early-2020.

We love making all-name team lists for upcoming seasons and drafts, so covering the MLB Draft is a no-brainer. There is some solid names on this year’s list.

My name is Bobby Roberts, so I am often jealous of people with unique names. The most unique thing about my name is that I was not born ‘Robert Roberts’, Bobby is my given name. I don’t know too many grown men named Bobby.
