Larry Brown...pepperoni?

Coach/es are more recent than Larry, though you did get one of the toppings right

I'm going to go with KT and Jank, pep and onions.

Must be Dooley

Yep!

It was Self and Dooley, pepperoni and sausage.

They were with two other dudes I didn’t recognize so assume they were adidas bag men.

Keeping the theme of Larry Brown era players (I will switch it up tomorrow for you youngsters).......
This former KU player nicknamed "Turtle" and/or "HMFR" (by a select few) was a H.S. teammate of Ben Wilson at the school that produced not just Ben Wilson but Nick Anderson, Jabari Parker, Derrick Rose, and Bobby Simmons.
He averaged 1.1 ppg his Freshman season at KU and 1.2 ppg his Sophomore season at KU.
He scored 2 points in the 1986 NCAA Tournament.
More than once he was seen eating (he was a big fan of M&Ms) on the "bench" during KU games.
He wore an even number for KU.
He is a BIG LeBron James fan.
I feel he is a great personal success story (after his basketball career) and he very well may have been my favorite player during my tenure at KU.
Who is/was this player?

While at KU this former player's 1992 GMC Sierra was stolen. Who is/was this former player?

Simien right?

Tyshawn Taylor

Stolen Sierra has a Fargo joke in there somewhere.

Correct!

Supposedly good ole number 23 didn't care about the vehicle nearly as much as he did the bibles (plural) that were inside of it.

I don't know about Ousdhal Road but I know BG14 left the scene of an accident.
Related question.... How many KU fans can spell both his first and last names correctly?
