Well, every school has "over the top" fans that believe their guys are the greatest. That's probably okay. But i don't think most CU fans think Trey was a slam dunk 6th man although his play speaks for himself now that he is a starter playing a position that's not his "natural" position.

Now that we know Bynum won 6th man, 100% cool with that and thought maybe he was a first teamer.


Don't see everything that people post, but can't remember seeing anyone call for Alexander as 6th man of the year. Outstanding year for a freshman, but there were growing pains as well.

I did...back on page 2, in my revision of Gumby's take.

Congrats to Bynum as 6th man. I thought either he or Watson should have been 1st team - my pref was Watson. No 1st teamer for the Champs??? seems odd.

Who would I drop? Cole or Sonogo. (Initially I thought to drop Champagnie, but individually he played well.)

The league is just too good this year. Look at the honorable mention cast, they would be a great team, and there is only four of them!

There were a few people, mostly Providence fans, who did not think Ryan Kalkbrenner should have been defensive player of the year. I don’t think Ed Cooley was in that group.

Ryan Kalkbrenner took it to us today. He was good,” Cooley said. “He impacted the game in every way in front of the rim. I think we went two days without a basket. And I think he was a big reason why.”


“The Friars shot just 11-of-24 on shots inside of five feet, largely because Kalkbrenner blocked or altered nearly every shot they attempted. On shots he directly contested, they were 1-of-11 (9.1%). Providence’s star center Nate Watson had five points and one lonely rebound in 25 invisible minutes.”
