You can take this as far back as you'd like, and it can be that you hated an opposing player or coach because either they lit it up against OU or just because they're not likeable.
And one rule I have on this post is that only people from opposing programs can be listed (so if you hated an OU player with an attitude you didn't like, save it).
You can have more than five, too, if you want....
G - Mark Turgeon, KU (more because of his attitude than his on-court accomplishments)
G - Jason Sutherland, MU (enough said)
G - Randy Wright, OSU (only played well against OU and Raymond Whitley; stunk against everyone else)
G - Victor Wililams, OSU (likely an Aggie icon because, although he was good, he saved the best for us)
F - Gabe Muoneke, UT (see Sutherland)
F - Rodell Guest, CU (wanted to fight the '88 team over their attempts to reach 100 points in the Big 8 tourney)
F - Curtis Redding, KSU (hot-head from Brooklyn, circa 1977)
C - Dexter Pittman, UT (just because....)
MVVP - Danny Manning, KU (totally just because, and also because he was part of those teams that seemed to promote themselves as being morally superior - especially to OU, the epitome of all evil in the Big 8 days)
Coaches:
1A - Bobby Knight, TT (no explanation needed)
1B - Larry Brown, KU (seemed to like building his rep on having guys who "didn't look like players" - think pigmentationally challenged; and also didn't seem to mind the label of his program as being more morally upright than others)
1C - Eddie Sutton, OSU (just for being the State's media darling, despite some obvious baggage from his Kentucky days).
