Mighty Osiris Has the Finest Hair in All the Land

Oh, Osiris Eldridge of Illinois State. You may have lost to Drake in the MVC championship this past weekend, but you won the most important battle of all: The fight for the crown of most freakishly stylish hairdo of the ‘07-‘08 hoops season.
There’s so much here: The rare black dude mohawk, the perfectly sculpted zero in the side of the head, the intricately trimmed basketball backdrop. I’m left simply speechless in its presence. This is truly a work for the archives, a bold arrow pointing the way to bigger, better frontiers in NCAA hoops coiffure, a pioneer in the field matched only by Russell Westbrook for daring and design.
All bow to Mighty Osiris! With hair like that, you are powerless not to, peasant.↵
