    Willard won it because he did so bad last year. He had talent last year and didn't do crap with it and this year his talent played to what they should be. Mack got screwed

    This reminds me of something I heard years ago.

    Chris Mack...Number 1 in the country, number 2 (or 3) in your own conference.

    Absolutely weak! MOR said it "BE Bias".
    Xaveriana, one that bleeds blue

    Was this before he shouted at Calipari "I'm going to kill you"?

    Well, who among us hasn't at least thought that about Calipari?

    Did he win another award?
    Mack's COY noted above is from the basketball writers, not other coaches.
    ...he went up late, and I was already up there.

    I would think this would actually make the other coaches in the BE look kind of foolish. They cannot recognize what the rest of the country recognizes.

    I'd be curious to see how the voting broke down. When the max votes a guy can get is 9, it can make for some weird results.

    But yeah, what a joke. What really annoys me about Willard is his performance last season lowered the expectations for this squad. Never mind that it's possibly the most talented single class in the Big East, and they made the usual sophomore jump.
