MDC Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 It's a regular season ranking, Kevin. JaJuan is way ahead of him in that regard. However, Derrick was amazing in the tournament. And don't give me that east coast BS. It makes sense, theres way more giant metropolitan areas in the east than the west. It makes senseIn the regular season, Derrick (.615) was a much more efficient shooter than JaJuan (not in the top 100 in regular season efficiency so I don't know his percentage), and JaJuan only averaged 1.4 PPG more than Derrick. Don't give me anything about JaJuan being "way ahead" of Derrick.There's quite a lot more to the game than just scoring. Considering Johnson is primarily a defensive player, averaging 20 points a game is a feat of its own. Don't forget the fact that JaJuan was the Big Ten Defensive Player of The Year. That carries quite a lot of weight in voting, and is tough to measure in only statistics, though 2.3 blocks per game is a damn good indication. ---Owner of the NHA's Philadelphia Quakers, the UBA's Chicago Skyliners, and the CFA's Portland Beavers (2010 CFA2 Champions)--- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lights Out Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Did I miss something, or is Butler slowly evolving into the Boise State of college hoops? Uh, no, as Butler was allowed to play in the Tournament, whereas football schools like Boise State are held to ridiculous long-term standards of perfection (one loss to a RANKED team gets you bumped down to the Maaco Bowl? Bull , especially considering UConn's record) and still get worse treatment than the brand-name schools without getting a fair shot at a title.

Yes the good people of Indianapolis are bandwagoning like crazy for them, but I don't blame them. Purdue is snakebit, everyone hates Notre Dame, and Indiana is on a pace to dig out from the Kelvin Sampson rubble by the next decade.

Billy B Posted March 31, 2011 Author Share Posted March 31, 2011 There are rumors out there that Bruce Weber might be taking over as head coach of Oklahoma. Apparently there is "mutual interest" but Weber is saying that there's "no story". One of the sources said Oklahoma wanted to name their head coach tomorrow, so we might not have to wait long to find out if the rumors are true or not.EDIT: Looks like he's probably going to stay.
