Congrats E.T.!

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/news/story?id=5072463

Now I'm not usually one to whine and complain and say "ESPN hates OSU and has it out for us!" But the first thing I noticed when I read that story..why the hell is the headline "Wall finishes second in voting"? That's kind of a slap in the face and disrespect to Turner. It should be about him winning it, not about Wall losing.

......and another one. Talk about leaving on top. Big Ten Player of the Year, 5 National Player of the Year awards, Big Ten champs, Big Ten Tourny Champs, Big Ten scoring champ, Big Ten rebounding champ, second In Big Ten in assists. All was missing is that national championship.

WOW!

I dont think I have ever heard of one player winning every single player of the year award.

Pretty good considering he missed 8 games in the middle of the year.

I'm right here...

He wan't the best player in the country....and he didn't deserve to win all these awards

Hayward,Schyer,Wall,and Renyolds all deserved to win more

Sorry I don't have to try. You do it all on your own.

You STILL won't give Turner credit after he dominates every major award. EVERY AWARD!!! Are you just dumb or do you like posting nonsense?

Besides a trip to the Final 4 and a national title.....the better question is. What DIDN'T he accomplish?

Hellooooo.....is there anybody in there?!

His case full of awards disagrees with you. I guess you really are that dense.

Anyway...enough of this crapfest. Its pretty obvious where you stand in this argument.

Its Saturday....time to enjoy it! Ciao!

I could see his point MAYBE if the voting for AP was close or something like that. But when you sweep every award, and dominate in the voting.....that defines deserving.

Yeah. It's one thing to have a "he's overrated, but you homers are too blind to see that" argument, but it's something else to have it when virtually all the evidence goes against it. When a guy wins every national award of note and gets 56/65 AP PoY votes (or something like that), using that argument basically is nothing more than saying, "I'm right and everyone else in the world is wrong and that's that!"
