College hoopsters can be an honest bunchâeven more so under the cover of anonymity. Athlon Sports talked to dozens of college basketball stars from coast to coastâat 50 schools in 18 conferencesâand got them to open up on a variety of topics, from the hottest woman alive, to which coach (other than their own) they'd like to play for, to overrated opponents to improper benefits. Their replies are sometimes predictable (Kim Kardashian and Kate Upton, anyone?), sometimes provocative. Read on.
