Mr. Basketball

@gregrakestraw: Mr. Basketball award goes to Trey Lyles. Received 117 votes, while Trevon Bluiett had 108, and James Blackmon Jr. had 95. Amazingly close.

Yep. Saw that coming. Lyles and Bluiett had much more team success. Wish we had both of them strictly on the terms of basketball skills.

Yes it is odd not seeing Indiana Mr. Basketball play for the Indiana Hoosiers. To me seems like they go hand in hand.

Lyles going to the NBA farm team, makes me nauseous, don't really care for the one and done players anyway though. I was afraid Alford would get good Indiana kids too, what kid would not want to go to California and play for legendary Steve Alford.  dang it !

Steve Alford, the coach that will stand by your side no matter who you've raped.

I don't think many current high school kids really care all that much what Steve Alford did at IU as a player. Plus, he has had largely mixed results as a coach, good during the regular season, really nothing special during the postseason
