BTW, UTEP’s Konner Tucker was “Bench Player of the Night” for his performance against Oregon. And, FWIW, UTEP is Tucker’s 4th school after stints at Lon Morris (JUCO), Wake, and Sam Houston State!
Six league PGs named to Cousy watch list. Most recent A-10er to win the national award was Jameer Nelson (St. Joe’s) back in 2004.

if i were major i would show that to henry. stinks that he is not on that list but he will prove to be the best pg on there.
[quote=“ninerfan55, post:15, topic:27107”]if i were major i would show that to henry. stinks that he is not on that list but he will prove to be the best pg on there.[/quote]Only quibble I have with that list as far as the A-10 players go is Mitchell - not because he’s not good but because he hasn’t played a minute this season due to injury! Clarke has made a believer out of me, so my apologies to Coach Stevens for thinking that experiment wouldn’t work after he dismissed starting PG Hopkins back in September.
Not sure how one makes the list so I’m not sure if Henry was nominated. Eighty on the watch list, which will be trimmed to 20 in January, 10 in February, then the final 5 in March.
And the winners for Dec. 24-30 are:
POTW: Carl Jones, St. Joe’s
Co-ROTW: Kellen Dunham, Butler (3rd honor for KD this season)
Co-ROTW: Quevyn Winters, Duquesne

After last night, gotta be some serious consideration for a Niner to be named ROTW.
IT won’t happen. the a-10 never liked us, and they wouldn’t give that to a player on a team leaving the conference
[quote=“HI49, post:19, topic:27107”]IT won’t happen. the a-10 never liked us, and they wouldn’t give that to a player on a team leaving the conference[/quote]Actually, it was LUTZ who never liked the A-10, but that’s another thread. :
Anyway, they keep giving ROTW awards left and right to Dunham and all the rumors have Butler joining the BE7, so don’t think it’s going to matter whether or not the team is leaving the A-10 or not. Of course, do remember the SBC shunning Henry Williams for POY because the Niners were leaving for the Metro.
