Whaley Ave.

This is exactly why I’m a UConn fan . Other than I’m from New Haven. I love seeing the development from year to year. He could’ve easily gave up and perhaps transfer. Instead he worked hard and ate mad PB & J’s to get bigger,improve,and prove he belonged. One love to Isiah Whaley.

Poppers is surprising me with his passing abilities... Kid is a stud right now. We may leave the AAC with Rookie of the Year (Bouk), AAC player of the year (CV), and most improved (IW)

We will probably get screwed out of all 3 but it’s really deserved, especially for Whaley. He should make an all conference team too.

There's no way Precious doesn't win ROY, if not POY.

I’m biased so he gets my vote

Precious is without a doubt the front runner

And Danny Coach of the year! Dude has worked miracles with so much against him. I don’t care what the record is.

god, I would be so happy for that man if he won coach of the year

Weird but Whaley's development is not year by year, but game by game. Its like he smelled opportunity and would let nothing stop him from grabbing the moment.

That's pure heart, unteachable. People may credit Hurley for this, but I would say its mostly Whaley. Kid wanted it and got it!

Akok who? (just kidding)

Only one award I want. The tournament championship trophy.

Me too! This is why I could never root for Kentucky and the Squid's traditional "one and done, then reload" although do give him props for being able to assemble a cohesive,, highly competitive unit pretty much each year. I love Whaley's story, and Vital's and Gilbert's for that matter too. In a program that develops talent over the course of seasons it is gratifying to see these kids grow up to become young men of character.

I am alone in thinking Precious is a horrible name?
