Paige Bueckers AP National Player of the Year

[Buzzyboy]

Congratulations to Paige.
Hope this award does not provide an extra incentive for Boston to raise her game against us.

Aren't you presuming a bit .... what makes you think that South Carolina will get past Stanford????

I may be alone on this, but I really wish this honor not be released until after the champion is decided.

Too much pressure put on the winner, and the team is considered a failure if they can't win with the proclaimed best player in the country.

OR definitely not just before an elite 8 or final 4 game if the honoree if still playing! godalmighty! just nuts!

Regardless of any awards or their timing, I consider it a failure if we don’t win the NC.

Andy Landers just stated that Paige getting the AP POY as a Freshman is the second one too do it. Said Britney Grinder did it as well. Someone needs to replace this guy he can't pronounce names and miss quotes actual facts.
