Georgetown was also picked 2nd overall by the coaches, with St. John's trailing by a very small margin.

I remember the good old days of HoyaTalk when we were able to swing any poll the Hoyas' way. Here's a link to fan voting of which team will win the Big East - make sure to vote! www.bigeast.com/ot/media-day-social-hub.html |

Player of the Year? How about making first team? Nova's sense of self-importance knows no bounds.

Joseph Staszewski @cng_Staszewski 6m6 minutes ago Manhattan, NY One NYC coach obviously not a fan of Steve Lavin & St. John's. Former CK center Adonis Delarosa at SJU. #BEmediaday Fwiw Joe Arbitello is the head coach of Christ the King in New York. Redmen Freshman center went to CTK but obviously their head coach is not a fan.. Ouch  |

Unfortunately, I am getting a double audio feed from the website. Makes it impossible for me to listen...

Congrats to DSR - now you have to earn the double (or maybe the triple??) Gonna be a marked man, your teammates need to step up to keep defenses honest.

Who are the dopes pushing content over at the BE site? Headline: DSR pre-season POY has picture of D'Angelo Harrison Headline: Villanova chosen unanimously has picture of guy from Xavier Also - How is Nova a unanimous choice with 9 first place votes? They even show the poll breakdown at the bottom of the page. If you can't vote for yourself (which may be the case), then you can't possibly have a unanimous choice. So why would you write it in a headline? p.s. -- Congrats to DSR. Guess he's not exactly as under-the-radar as we think he is sometimes. |

Tyler R. Tynes @tylerrickytynes 50m50 minutes ago Arcidiacono said that Darrun Hilliard not being named preseason Big East Player of the Year "kind of makes him mad" #BEmediaday Does he not like Pinkston? Why Hilliard? Also, DSR was a lot better individually than both of them last year. He was really efficient and a high usage player--he put up stats, but he did so without being a gunner--there's no reason to think he can't be even more effective as the offense becomes better, as he won't be forced into low percentage shots due to the quality of his teammates as often. |

Wow, given that Joshua Smith has deservedly been in JT3's doghouse for awhile, I was surprised he was one of Georgetown's reps at media day. He seems like he's taking responsibility though:

If you can't vote for yourself (which may be the case), then you can't possibly have a unanimous choice. So why would you write it in a headline? One article I read clarified that Villanova got all the number 1 votes it could have gotten. If true, we know Jay Wright is the coach who voted for Georgetown to finish first. I am really happy DSR got the pre-season player of the year honor. It shows that other coaches paid attention to how good he was last year. I really think, even on HoyaTalk, some fail to recognize that DSR had an amazing year last year, especially when one considers he was a sophomore and had little other help from anybody else. It was one of the best seasons any guard has had under JTIII. And very likely the best any has had as a sophomore. |
