^ That should work, Shownuff.
TJ is the POY by a country mile over Parker who was himself far better than Paige despite David Glenn’s best efforts to tell us idiots otherwise (today’s format is anything other than ACCPOY, btw).
TJ, you have been an absolute pleasure to watch! You are a SUPERSTAR! Congratulations young man!
FYI…I merged the two “TJ wins POY” threads into this one. (It looks like everything worked.)
Congrats to TJ.
Congratulations TJ Warren! If he can add the Everett Case Award this weekend I will be very pleased.
Congrats to TJ. He’s made every game this season worth watching, and the last couple weeks have been something really special. Couldn’t be happier for him. Now if we could just convince him to come back and defend it…
Of course the ESPN headline reads “Warren edges Parker for ACC Player of Year”, because nearly doubling the 2nd place guy’s votes is apparently a narrow margin.
Also, 4 people voted for Jabari Parker for DPoY, which is absurd.
Congratulations TJ. Although some on this board may disagree, for my money you are the best since DT. You would have had to have been around then to understand just how monumental that compliment is. Keep up the great work.
Dukeies say that Swoff would NOT allow a Duke Freshman to get the POY and the Frosh of the year award. Based on Wiki, there has NOT been a Frosh that has received the award.
Congrats to TJ (Buckets) Warren. We are proud of you as well as your dad.
GO STATE….now use this as a motivation to win the next three games and lets go dancing….
This great news. Well-deserved.
That said, the media giving props to Buckets combined with the recent success of FSU, the U, and UVa does tend to undermine the conspiracy theory arguments, doesn’t it?
Also undermines the Gottfied haters’ arguments. Gottfried had a big role to play in working TJW up into a POY. Gott was also the decisive factor in getting a team decimated by graduation and transfers to .500 in league play.
Folks, we have been our own worst enemies for a long time. Lotta bad hires over the years. But we have a good coach in a league with more parity than ever. I think we’re going in the right direction.
Or, you can look at it like we had the ACC POY, by a landslide, and only went .500. It cuts both ways.
Yes, all of it does undermine the “theories”.
Nice job. Now to tie Thompson’s record by getting POY three years in a row. Hey, an alumni/fan can dream, right?
