Awards and Superlatives - Men's Basketball 2015-16

[Walking Boot of Doom 18,170]

I would not go that far, Bryant had 1 more rebound, Stone scored more. But, IU owned Maryland colectively.

Stone's mid-range jumper off the block was money. Hit three or so right over Bryant.

And slightly off topic, but Diamond Stone as FOY?  Over Happ?  Not sure about that one and Bryant not even mentioned in the convo.  Interesting.  I didn't think he'd beat out Happ but at least deserved to be mentioned along with Stone, Happ, and Swanigan. 

 

Good. Hopefully that encourages TB to return next year!

CTC deserves it.

Well deserved! Congrats to Coach Crean for a great season!

[WayneFleekHoosier 51,056]

Happy Hoosier Days!

HMM I guess to get New Comer of the Year:  TB would have had to slam a players head in the ground a couple of times, and get suspended for a game.  :(

Congratulations CTC!!

Put all your COY and other awards in here. Merging everything here.

 

All right, should be right now. Did not realize it didn't ask you for a thread title and everything if you merged from the checkboxes instead of the thread.

[Brass Cannon 25,345]

So with 3 guys on the first or second team MSU still came up short by 2 games with an easier schedule.

B1G Conference to announce awards tonight at 6 PM

[AKHoosier 7,641]

I just have a feeling the B1G is going to do something lame and give Gard the conference coach of the year since Crean won the AP's B1G coach of the year.
