Iowa State NBA Earnings since 1985
The Wall Street Journal did an article about teams and how much players from each school have made since 1985 in the NBA. ISU comes in 43rd, and from what I can tell 4th in the Big 12 (current or past) with $151,166,328. (KU-8, Texas-36, OSU-42)
Cool to see, especially with our 6 year program death. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000...%3Dinteractive
Forgot the link, oops. That is directly to the list, there is a tab to go to the article at the top of it.

"He is the toughest I have ever been around, physically and mentally," Burnham said. "You can beat him down but you’re not going to beat him out. He’s got the mindset of, ‘If you’re going to get me out of this game, you’re going to have to kill me.’ That’s about where he is."

Sounds like a good read. Link?
Edit:
Pretty cool to look at. Seeing GT that high, Not sure how. I guess if you get guys that hang out for years it will help. Also 'Cuse was lower then I thought they would be.

(KU-8, Texas-36, OSU-42) Wow, I'm surprised ISU is that high, both overall and within the conference. It doesn't seem like we have had that many NBA caliber players. I did a quick check at basketball-reference.com and here is how it breaks down.
Kelvin Cato - $47 million
Jamaal Tinsley - $40 million
Jeff Hornacek - $26 million
Marcus Fizer - $13 million
Fred Hoiberg - $10 million
Victor Alexander - $6 million
Jeff Grayer - $3 million
Loren Meyer - $2 million
Craig Brackins - $1 million
Jackson Vroman - $1 million
The rest spread out between Blalock, Taylor, Willoughby, Stevens, and Shirley. I think that was everybody.

Stephon Marburry was the first one to come to my mind, he made over 150 mill on some hugggge deals that didnt work out so well. That includes the around 80 mill that NYK gave him for practically notta.

They didn't list a salary for Barry Stevens, but he only played for 6 minutes across 2 games so I'm sure it wasn't much. It also didn't have full information for Paul Shirley's salary. I'm sure he made more than 29K since he appeared in 18 games.

The rest spread out between Blalock, Taylor, Willoughby, Stevens, and Shirley. I think that was everybody. I would've thought Fizer would have made more off being a top 5 pick than that. I guess the money is all in the 2nd contract, which he didn't get.

Re: Iowa State NBA Earnings since 1985
Didn't Loren Meyer turn down another contract because just didn't feel like leaving Ruthven? The story I heard was that if he had played that year, he also would have qualified for NBA pension. I've always wondered if it was true.

Nice guy. He once came over to CR after his senior year with Hornacek. Barry accepted an invite for dinner at my parents. It was great getting to know him a little
