AP All-American List Released

[FinalFourCy]

Sadly, going 1-7 on 3Ps in our loss to Purdue gave him no chance. He was going to need to lead us past the 2nd round to surpass the bluebloods and over hyped freshmen

Who the hell is bonzie colson

He is really good. Averaged 17 and 10 at 6-5

Edit: Twins beat me to it

 

[SC Cy]

Not shocked or upset, this seems about right to me.

Who the hell is bonzie colson

He's legit and belongs on the list, trust me. It was why Fred tried recruiting him.

 

[Rabbuk]

Bonzie is a force. He's a fun player to watch.

But what you are saying right here is completely counter to the whole thought process with All-American voting, it should be based on the body of work... Not short-term memory of the last game we played before voting, plus to factor that in it has been quite a few weeks since Fultz has played....

Well, it shouldn't matter what team you play for either, but it does.

It stinks, but it's not going to change

 

[madguy30]

If they were going on NCAA tourney runs or late season performance, SC's Thornwell should be in there somewhere.

 

[NickTheGreat]

I coudn't see him jumping anybody on 1st team. But some of the 2nd and 3rds don't make sense

 

[Doc]

Not shocked or upset, this seems about right to me.

Yeah, I agree. The only changes I think I would make would be subsitute Monte for Fultz and Thornwell for Markkanen.

Ojeleye has an argument for being on there over Fultz/Marrkanen as well.

 

[Doc]

If they were going on NCAA tourney runs or late season performance, SC's Thornwell should be in there somewhere.

Even ignoring the postseason, he was co-SEC player of the year with Monk, and I think he should have been on a team. Not a lot of SEC love on these teams.

 

[mj4cy]

He's 2nd team or better if he plays for a blueblood.

Not saying it will ever change just saying your view is contradictory and more than that goes kind of parallel with how the media thinks....

Haha, of course it is!

For right or wrong, that's what matters. Whether I think Morris is an AA is completely irrelevant. Imo the only chance for Morris to make one of the three teams was for the media to see ISU go on a great run led by MM. That didn't happen and he didn't have a great game against PU

 

[Cyrammer]

I read somewhere that the voting for the All American teams was completed immediately following the conference tournaments - prior to the NCAA tourney.

 

[SoapyCy]

they need career awards for guys that A) sticks around for four years and/or B) are the all-time leader in some category. I'll be the first to admit to 99% of fans these awards don't mean anything. The casual fan can't tell you who is on what list or who won awards last year. But it does matter to the players who actually go and perform and the schools they are trying to champion. For an All-Time great PG to get honorable mention is terrible. All-Time great.

 

[SC Cy]

He's 2nd team or better if he plays for a blueblood.

There are players from Purdue, Washington, Notre Dame, Wisconsin, and Baylor. All-America teams have nothing to do with being a "blue blood".

 

[dtISU]

Even ignoring the postseason, he was co-SEC player of the year with Monk, and I think he should have been on a team. Not a lot of SEC love on these teams.

Remember when we thought we were in the running for Monk? What if...

 

[JohnnyDakota]

List is fine. Morris shouldn't be ahead of any of those players.
