- Marlon Parmer

Since 2005, Marlon Parmer has played in the NBA, the CBA, Saudi Arabia, Poland, the ABA, Qatar, Venezuela, Estonia, Qatar again, the D-League, and Saudi Arabia again. It's been a well travelled few years, and were it not for the American and European stints in there, we'd have to change the name of the Dan Langhi tour.

Parmer quit New Mexico in January 2002 after an argument with then-head coach, Fran Frascilla. I can see how that could happen. He then transferred to division 2 Kentucky Wesleyan for his senior season, and averaged 20/6/8, but it wasn't enough to get drafted.
