No first team all big east.

Georgetown wouldn't have won much without Peavy either, that goes both ways. Plus, he is shooting 40% on 3s on good volume and close to 50% on all FGs in addition to being a lockdown defender and leading the Big East in steals. He also had the game winner against Nova at Finneran Pavilion and helped Georgetown sweep Nova. Here is his game log (his last 10 games were exceptional):

Peavy has been a monster to end the year (stepping up when Sorber went down). 23, 7, and 4.5 from February on (9 games) while being one of the best perimeter defenders in the league.
Hard to reconcile that with 10 ppg in December for awards though.

Let us not forget that in 2022-2023 UConn was in a very similar situation in the conference and then things just came together plus a little bit of luck.
Dixon and Luis better remember that the Big East referees won’t be at every ncaa tourney game to bail them out.

This guy has “Bad Team Superstar” written all over him. He is a stats monster recently, but Georgetown has beaten Villanova (x2), Butler, Seton Hall and Providence since January 3. Feels more like a second or third team player.
I agree with the other selections.

I’m not upset with Peavy on the first team. He’s putting up numbers on a bad team, but he still put up the numbers. If it was Ashworth, Solo, or Kadary instead of him, I also wouldn’t be upset with it
50/50 on Kalkbrenner vs Luis for POY. Both had great seasons for successful teams
Last year I’m pretty sure the coaches voted Devin Carter just so Tristen Newton wouldn’t win. If they follow the same logic (beast player on a bad team), then it 100% should be Eric Dixon with no question. But I think that voting logic was a one-time thing

Do you really think they voted Carter so Newton wouldn’t win? UConn had a gluttony of talent last year, Carter carried PC.

The last time a BE POY wasn’t in the top 5 teams was 2000. Not counting the weird triple-winner year in 2021, the last time a BE POY wasn’t top 3 was 2016
In a year when the BE had 3 AP All Americans, I refuse to believe that the POY voting was honest in giving it to Devin Carter. He carried them, but carried them to .500 and an NIT berth
If Eric Dixon wins POY this year then I’ll admit I was wrong and the criteria is just different now. He’s had a better individual season and Nova is 1 game ahead of where PC was. If not, then I have to start asking why the BE voted with that set of criteria for 1 year and 1 year only

Carter was a ridiculous all around player and a lottery pick. I don’t think that because he was an outlier to a trend means the fix was on. He deserved it.
I think Peavy may be the 2nd best player..Cam Jomes 1.

How about because in '24 the Big EAst's dominant team really didn't have A dominant player. Rational people could have thought any of our starters but Alex was UConn's MVP. When opinions split like that, a dominant best player on some other team has a path to winning.

Worth nothing when only looking at Big East games, and omitting non conference numbers we see
PEAVY: 19.15ppg on 48.8% from the field and 42.6% from 3pt range with 6.55 rebounds a game, 3.45 assists a game, 2.2 steals a game, and 0.3 blocks a game
his numbers are better when looking at big east games in comparison to the entire season, whereas Karaban's season long numbers are inflated by non-conference games and his big east game stats are much worse.
KARABAN: 14.05ppg on 42.6% from the field and 31.5% from 3pt range with 5.35 rebounds a game, 2.7 assists a game, 0.45 steals a game, and 1.55 blocks a game.
If there was an argument for Peavy to not make the First Team I think its necessary to say who should have deserved the spot. I love Karaban and I'm not looking to bad mouth him at all but it is baffling to me to try to claim he deserved the spot over Peavy while he was in the fan bases dog house for the past 1.5 months. So if Peavy wasn't deserving of the spot, who got robbed?

I would've given it to Freemantle- in Big East play 17/9/3 on 58% field goal and Xavier is way better than Georgetown.
