Can a frosh win newcomer? Does that mean DK beat out Wiggins? Maybe a sneak peak at POY?

They might as well rename the newcomer award the "Fred Hoiberg Transfer of the Year" Award and the defensive player of the year award the "Goon Kansas has on the Inside" award.

Pretty weak year for DPOY. I'm not sure he was the best defender, in B12 play, on his own team. Embiid played only 50% of KU's B12 minutes - so his defensive impact just wasn't that huge - but I'm not sure who deserves it otherwise.

Forte's only a sophomore? Why did I think he was older than that?

I hate the DPOY award because it always seems to go to shot blockers and I think there are better measures of defense.
