For me it would be Rich Daly. The amount of stories he could tell would be too much for a movie, it would have to be a novel.
Rich's comments on the article I posted below about his JUCO days:
They had four 7-footers on that team and he confirmed that three of them lived in his garage, and the other one "just sort of roamed around" and missed about half of their games. A guy named "Rosie". Rosie's biological brother was Melvin Turpin, who become a star at Kentucky.
When Rich was at Tennessee-Chattanooga he recruited Turpin, and went to his house, and Melvin went in the backyard and killed a chicken and his mother cooked it. The roof of the house was only about 6 feet tall and Melvin and his brother had to stoop or crawl around the house. Melvin's mother weighed something like 400 pounds.
