So are special awards for men.

OK, so here's the problem. How in the world does Johnson get 6th man of the year and make first team All-MAC? That shouldn't be a thing.

You knew if would happen though, right?

And apparently Jordy wasn't even in the running for Freshman of the Year.
I can't believe Jordy was the fifth freshman on the All-Freshman team as evidenced that the other 4 got votes for Freshman of the Year. I would definitely say that Massinburg and Thompson were tough but the Northern guy didn't impress me and Williams had one good game and one not so great game against us. He was a bench guy most of the year wasn't he? Jordy was consistently a big game player for us and really did a great job. He was the third best frosh in the league at least.

Doesn't really matter. Dartis is on the All-Freshman team as he should be, and Thompson won Freshman of the Year as he should have. How the votes played out to get those results don't really matter as far as the end result.

But isn't it really because of the coach's insistence to bring him off the bench when he's actually their best player?

Or is it the fact that the coach knows he's not as effective against fresh players. I see him as a very good player that is sort of a one-trick pony. Stick him on Miami and see how effective he would be if you don't have to worry about the other four players on the court draining threes. No way should he have been on the 1st team ahead of JTIV. He's behind him in every single meaningful category.

Much better overall IMO. I really disagree with JTIV getting DPOTY though. I would contend that not only isn't he DPOTY, he isn't a good defender at all. Fundamentally he's a mess and he plays like a freshman, going for the block on every single shot which leads to tons of offensive rebounds by the opponent (they are ranked #349 by KenPom in OR allowed.) EMU is a bad defensive team and he's a big reason why. It appears Hustle Belt just looked at blocks and steals and decided having high numbers in both means you are a good defender.
