May or may not be worth a thread, but I bet some funny stuff could come out of it. ;)
Bare with me here, but most recently when I see Buzz Williams of VA Tech ... I honestly think he looks a little like Kim Jung Un (if KJU were to wear sports vests etc lol). I think its the glasses and body figure etc. The way he moves etc.
We all know and have seen the similarities of Grayson Allen and Ted Cruz.
I always thought James Michael MaCadoo of the cheats looked like the singer Drake if he were a bum on the streets (towards the latter end of his season when he decided to stop shaving. He had a patchy "beard").
Not many more come off the top of the head, but I am sure there are many more out there.
Does anyone have any good ones?
** I hate to have to "apologize" in advance if anyone is offended etc because I mean no harm, but I'd rather make it known that I mean no offence to any of the people being compared, as well as obviously Buzz Williams is not a dictator and I am only comparing my personal opinion on appearance and not their personalities/life accomplishments etc.

Ohh yeah one more. Anyone here seen the US version of the show Shameless? It's a showtime show.
Kyle Guy of UVA reminds be A LOT of the youngest son in the show, Carl Gallagher.
I have to go to work now but maybe later I can post side by side comparisons to help my opinions haha.

To me, Peter Jacobson playing proxy governor Alan Snyder in "Colony" - could be cast as Coach K. Somehow, the facial expressions he used in that series kept reminding me of K....and it wasn't even hoops season when I watched....

Can we just say that Boeheim and Larranaga look like each other at this point in their lives?

Possibly too old hat and obvious to even mention the obvious resemblance of former Wisconsin coach Bo Ryan and the Grinch?

I like that, and I used to always think about Bo Ryan as that "intense" televangelist, Robert Tilton

Yes, the Duke students used to chant "Food Lion!" at him.

I am having a tough time finding a really good comp for Capel because the best comp is his father. None of these are on the nose, but perhaps an average of these guys...

With Chris Mack you can either go for facial accuracy or be lazy and just make bald jokes.

I have not the chops to do a screenshot from a commercial, but there's a guy in a Chevy truck ad who's shown very briefly. He's bald and is saying "Goodbye" in a most enthusiastic way. The people are all taking their tailgates up a mountaintop to presumably trade them in for better ones with a step built into them that can be folded down. He looks very much, and even sounds like - Seth Greenburg.
Na-na, na-na-na-na, hey hey, Goodbye!
The whole ad is very silly, and that's another thing that made me think of Seth. I've gotten to the point that I believe it IS Seth.
