Who is a player from your team that "The streets will never forget"?

I hear this term a lot in the soccer sphere, and it tends to mean a player who was magical for one or two seasons at the club, but didn't do much elsewhere. In college football, it would be a player who was great for a season or two, and either flopped in their senior year, never got drafted, or flopped in the pros.

For Oregon, I would say Dennis Dixon. In the 2007 season, he was one of the front runners for the Heisman after the first 9 games, and Oregon was ranked #2 in the country. He injured his knee in a game against Arizona State, which was then aggravated in an away game vs Arizona. After Dixon was out for the season, Oregon lost their last three games of the regular season. Dixon was then drafted to the NFL, where he was a journeyman backup QB for many teams. Even so, the success that he brought Oregon over the first 9 games makes him one of the most memorable players in Oregon history.

Which player from your team embodies that the most?
