17. Ultimate Blairrior DeJuan Blair, 6-7 forward, Soph., Pitt Classification: Bicep Bands Spotted: All season long Notes: Blair's sweatbands seem to be an ode to classic WWF icon the Ultimate Warrior. In this photo Blair offers his best Ultimate Warrior expression -- or at least the best one can do without the help of face paint. |

18. Hoghair Courtney Fortson, 5-11 guard, Fr., Arkansas Classification: Megabraids Spotted: All season long Notes: The former Mr. Basketball in Alabama brought a signature 'do to Fayetteville, where he was masterful in upsets of Texas and Oklahoma ... but has tailed off since, as the Razorbacks have lost their first four SEC games. |

19. The Perfect Pop Jeff Adrien, 6-7 forward, Sr., Connecticut Classification: Jersey-pop Spotted: Jan. 24 at Notre Dame Notes: The celebration that was such a phenomenon in 2005 that it warranted a New York Times trend piece is still alive and well. Adrien flashed this one to cameramen after ending the Irish's 45-game home win streak. |

20. The Jennings Trumaine Johnson, 6-2 guard, Soph., San Diego Classification: Kid 'n' Play Cut Spotted: Jan. 15 vs. Pepperdine Notes: House Party hair was first revived by preps-to-Europe point guard Brandon Jennings (shown inset) at last year's McDonald's All-America Game, but Johnson is keeping it alive stateside in the West Coast Conference. |

21. Lumber Limbs James Eayrs, 6-7 forward, Jr., Wisconsin-Milwaukee Classification: Guns Spotted: All season long Notes: Big Lumber, as the beefy transfer from North Dakota State College of Science has been nicknamed, brings some serious size to the Horizon League. His arms are thicker than most of the Butler kids' thighs. |
