Message: [QUOTE="The deacon, post: 4529632, member: 11559"] I try to frame my opinions as such, and respect that you often do, too. Aliyah played like an All-American vs. UConn, and like a strong NPOY candidate. If Caitlin/Iowa struggles down the stretch and if Aliyah were to play like she did Sunday through an upset loss in the Sweet Sixteen, I'd probably vote for her, even with that early Gamecocks exit (I know that's an extremely unlikely scenario).:rolleyes: But it's not enough for Clark and Iowa to lose a few to let Boston win it. Aliyah has to earn it, not rest on her laurels, even as I know some voters would be satisfied with that. There are other players who could deserve it, too. [/QUOTE]
