AAC Awards

I was listening to The Fieldhouse podcast. I think they are affiliated with The Athletic?

They broke down All-Conference teams for the P7. P5+2? P6+1? Idk. But every podcast I listen to does the Top 7 conferences for everything.

They had Clark 1st Team. I thought it was the most obvious thing in the world, as do all of us. But just the fact that the one guy had to make the comment "We were going to fight" (or something along those lines) if you didn't have Clark on. Luckily the other guy did! But that just shows how for some reason in the minds of the people who look at these things, they hesitate for some unknown reason when it comes to UC. They had to feel each other out to make sure Clark was supposed to be on there. We saw that last year when we went 16-2 in the league and had 1 2nd team player only. Clark should be unanimous POY. It's not even a debate. Obviously things could change from here, but at this point, how is it even a conversation? We saw last year SMU got all the awards in the world for winning the league and beating us by 1 game. We better get the same respect this year when we add Wichita to the league and win by even a wider margin.

They did not have Jacob Evans as 1st team All-AAC. Just couldn't find room for him bc they had to get the Tulane guy in there, of course Pretty Boy Rob the God Gray, and I honestly don't even know who else bc I was so annoyed. We're 12-0 in the f&%^ing league. How do people think that's happening? Evans leads the team in minutes, points, assists, steals, FT%, made 3s, deflections (important on a historically good defense), is shooting over 40% from 3, is our closer, etc. What in the hell?

If it was up to me, at this point, I'm going Clark and Evans 1st team and it's not even a debate. Bump someone else. I don't care who. We are the best team, we deserve that respect. And I'd go Washington and Cumberland 2nd team. And I'd say Broome is likely 6th man of the year.

I just don't get it. But let's hope when it's all said and done we are represented in these awards the way we should be. Our players have earned it...and a hell of a lot more than the players on some of the dumpy ass teams in the middle of the league.

Sorry but that just really bothered me. You can turn on any game with UC and it takes 2 seconds to realize that #11 and #1 for UC are making the biggest difference in the game. For either team. Couldn't be more obvious. You might actually have to watch though. I swear some of these people watching basketball games are like dogs just tracking and following the ball. And looking at PPG. Smh.
