    ---------------
    An entire prediction thread where I didn't mention the Gators at all....

    It's so tough to make the Final 4 in 2 consecutive years. I don't have any Gator in my All-American team, because they all take stats away from each other. None of the Gators will put up big stats.

    Green as a Player of the Year but not an All-American?

    Also, Gabe Pruitt is academically ineligible for the fall semester of play -
    http://fantasycollbask.usatoday.com/conten...ort=CBB&id=3515

    Anyway, here are my predictions -

    <u>First Team</u>
    G - Ron Steele (Alabama)
    G - Brandon Rush (Kansas)
    F - Alando Tucker (Wisconsin)
    F - Tyler Hansbrough (North Carolina)
    C - Aaron Gray (Pittsburgh) *

    * - If Greg Oden's injury doesn't keep him out more than a few games, he's my choice for the All-American team's center.

    <u>Final Four</u>
    Ohio State
    Kansas
    Florida
    Arizona

    Championship: Ohio State over Kansas

    National Player of the Year: Tyler Hansbrough
    Tournament M.O.P.: Greg Oden

    yea i just notice how stupid that was(J_Ray you did the same thing lol)

    Since Gabe can't play il replace him with Steele

    Also IMO Julian Wright is the better then Brandon Rush but its a hard one

    But Brandon and Julian will actually be CO-POY

    I thought NPOY doesn't get put on all american team? If not, I'll just replace Noah, put McRoberts there, Dicky V will be all over him hyping him up.

    I agree that Wright is probably the better player, and I think he'll wind up being a better pro because of his superior athletic gifts, but next year I'd definitely expect Rush to outscore him with the identity the Jayhawks have developed and the scoring role he has taken on. Also, there's the issue of Wright's perimeter jumper. He'll hopefully develop a perimeter game in his three or four years at Kansas, but right now it's pretty much nonexistent, whereas Rush is a reliable three-point threat.

    Since when? Redick was an All-American, Bogut was, and so was David West. I can't remember any Player of the Year's being left off of the All-American team.

    Brandon Rush game looks just like Paul Pierce's.

    Agree about Wrights jump shot
