Why? Sure it's unfortunate that Kemba didn't get as much recognition as he possiblity would have otherwise. But he has had the last laugh. Truth prevailed. He won the title that year and has gone to have very good NBA career. Pointless accolades are just that.

Right. Agree on all that. But Kemba was by far the best player in the big east and the country. Look at the team around him for most of the year and then look at what he won and records he broke. That’s before the NC

I remember reading a tweet saying Jimmer is putting up numbers on the freshmen and Kemba is putting up numbers on the varsity

Lol NPOY “pointless accolades”

To Syracuse, he looks like a Gerry McNamara clone. Not that athletic, not great defensively, but a knock down shooter, volume shooter, with in-the-gym range, and big balls. Kid averaged over 50 points a game as a junior. Sure, against mediocre competition, but still, those are crazy numbers. And he did very well in EYBL, as did Boeheim's son. The two of them played with Isaiah Stewart in AAU ball. And we just got an official visit from Stewart.

Ok, IthacaMatt, I'll play along. Would you rather have Joe Girard, or James Bouknight committed to your school?

Because I know what all of us "biased" UConn fans will say (in a heartbeat, JB)... but also pretty much any unbiased observer would say the same thing.

James Bouknight - All. Day. Long.

P.S. And good luck with that trying to beat out Kentucky AND Duke for Isaiah Stewart... even with him being from Rochester, your chances are... well, let's just say that the cheating/extra benefits thing your program was doing last decade to get guys like Fab Melo better be reinstated ASAP.
