Message: [QUOTE="bballnut90, post: 3487745, member: 2117"] Being a leader and the anchor of a title absolutely is worth merit. And her stats, while not eye popping, are solid. Cox averaged 12.5 points, 8.4 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 2.7 blocks and 1.6 turnovers on 46% shooting. In the game they did play against good competition, Cox put up 16 points, 6 rebounds, 4 blocks, 4 assists and held ONO to 0 points, 6 boards, 3 fouls and 1 block on 0-8 shooting. And her team won by 16 points on the road. Defense and intangibles dont show up on a stat sheet either. She was the best defensive post in the country and her team finished 2nd in the country in scoring defense (51.6/game), 2nd in rebound margin, 8th in blocks, 2nd in A/TO ratio, and first in scoring margin. She was the biggest catalyst in all of those stats for Baylor besides maybe A/TO where she had a 2.3 A/TO ratio, good for top 30 in the nation and the only point-guard there. Furthermore, Baylor absolutely deserves to have someone on the top 2 AP teams considering the season they had. The roster was balanced with five players averaging between 10-14ppg. Cox was the obvious pick since considering her impact on both ends. You bring up Gabby being as good as anyone in the country as a senior, same can be said for Cox (aside from Ionescu). Cox deserves her honors. [/QUOTE]
