1992 Classic Draft Picks #4 Tony Bennett
Tony Bennett is probably best known for being the coach of the Virginia Cavaliers, the team that would, under his guidance, famously become the first #1 seed to lose to a #16 seed, and then follow that up with a national championship the next year.
 
Tony was, of course, a standout player himself, starring at UW-Green Bay playing for his father, Dick Bennett.  What's not quite as well known is that Tony's collegiate career has been commemorated in video form, and the soundtrack to this masterpiece is Carly Simon's "Nobody Does It Better.  Enjoy.
 
Just a few months ago, Bennett resigned as head basketball coach at Virginia mere weeks before the start of the season.  At the moment, the Cavaliers' record is a very mediocre 5-4.

  1. Probably a better vocalist than Deano, but the latter had the swagger.
