  • wkfan
    Evan Turner was named the AP Player of the Year in college basketball in a landslide.

    He probably got the 'Papal' vote from the Vatican.

    Which, coincidentally, was marked by blue and gold smoke rising from the chimney.

    Good for ET- 1st Buckeye POY since Gary Bradds in 1964, before that Jerry Lucas in '61 and '62.

    I thought Jimmy Jackson won one of the POY awards (not the AP) the year Laettner won it.

    Thats pretty good that you can miss 5 weeks in the middle of the season and still win POY

    What a joke

    He was that good this year, especially when he returned.

    No more of a joke than someone that wins a Nobel peace prize with in 6 mouths after he was elected to office.

    jealousy is a bad thing....
  • gibby08
    I'm not a bit jealous of Evan Turner.....

    I know he's going to be a bust in the NBA and will be back in Coulmbus selling cars in three years
  • jordo212000
    Over/under on how many basketball games Gibby watched this year... 0.5

    I am taking the under on that one. At least I hope it is less than 1. Any basketball watcher with a brain could have told you that Turner was far and away the best player in the NCAA this year.

    FAIL.
  • gibby08
    He is not the most talented player in the country..and anyone with half a brain and without buckeye blinders could see that
  • Shane Falco
    He nearly averaged a triple double per game,

    Yea... he was terrible


    Poor Gibby. Can I see your college stats?

    I don't have Buckeye Blinders (Tar Heels fan) but Turner deserved this award just as much as John Wall or any other player with a vote. His stats were amazing.

    I think John Wall has TONS of potential but I honestly don't think he has lived up to the hype yet.

    No offense but he wasn't near averaging a triple double every game. He needed 4 more assists a game and in a 30 game season, that's 120 assist. He wasn't close...

    Didn't know it was a requirement to be the most talented player in the country to win POY. lol

    FAIL again
  • hangonsloopy
    Apparently not. He wasn't voted best player by buckeye fans.

    Your hate for OSU is horribly obvious.
  • gibby08
    Jesus...Turner is a good player....he is not as great as all of you make him out to be
  • hangonsloopy
    Then why did he win player of the year? lol
