Take it to the Pro and College Board. This has nothing to do with Georgetown basketball.

These guys obviously never saw Verne Lundquist call a game before-he's done same "gushing" about Chris Duhon "What a player, what a man" and the obsession with David Pollack and David Greene at UGA their SR seasons was disgusting. CBS even had them in a tree dressed like Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn--it was the most "interesting" opening to a game I've seen and yes--I vomited soon after seeing it.
Awards in today's era are a joke-the best players aren't rewarded--it's the best marketing campaign prior to season, the best team's marquee players, etc.. that get rewarded and it's why you have to "grin and bear it" when they announce it. I mean how CFB has been allowed to act like the Heisman goes to best player when defensive players are NEVER considered--and yes I know Charles Woodson won--but he was a 2 way player--and sometimes the best player is an OL, DL, LB, and they have no chance.
If you really look at CBB-the most outstanding player is often a guy on a mediocre/bad team who has to do everything to keep them competitive/help them win-not a guy on a stacked team. If Hansbrough scores 10 pts-UNC can still win 90% of their games. If Blake Griffin does, or Stephen Curry does--in majority of games they will lose. Last year it was Michael Beasley--if he didn't play well--Kansas State stunk and would lose. Did he win award? Nope. He had stats too--but that didn't even matter.

Two words: Rey Maualuga.
You couldn't be more spot on, RDF.
