1. Someone got snubbed

2. They didn't pick the team based on position

Every year the same complaints.

They don't pick by position. It's always the five top vote getters regardless of position. It's not a team, but the best players. They won't play anyone so you don't have to worry about four guards getting out rebounded.

I also believe that the coaches and media relations personnel from a particular school can't vote for their own players. A lot of times stats are all they have to go by since they've only seen a guy in person once or twice.

When they publish teams like this, CUSA continues to be a laughingstock.

Damn impressive indeed.

Very proud of Pablo. It's been a joy to watch him grow from freshmen year to now. Amazing that he missed a good chunk of games, was the only real threat on the entire team, and still is #1 in scoring.
If it wasn't for Jarvis, it would be widely believed here in Boca that Pablo is one of the best players in FAU history.

Congrats to all players and schools!

With 16 teams they had a lot of players to choose from and think that why some very deserving guys got left off. In some ways I was kind of surprised Speedy made first team but after reading what opposing coaches thought about his play I can see way he made it.

The list looks so strange....I am so used to it being the entire Memphis team, I'm not sure what to do with a somewhat balanced team of teams.

When SJ shows up with some stats to prove it to be true, just remember....YOU ASKED FOR IT.

lol, didn't notice that. That too is a joke, even more so than Henry being on third team.

Guess they just picked players from the best teams and called it a day.

Ya think there's any good players on those "best teams"??

Which of these players is most likely to get drafted by the NBA?

All's good Tulsa will just use this as bulletin board material for the tournament.

Don't let SJ see this! He still thinks Akeem is first team and player of the year!

I am just glad to see that at least one Owl was picked, even if it is the walking around on the ground variety.

Alex Hamilton probably will but not until he graduates. Appleby is projected to go in the 3rd round in 2015. Alex has twice the talent, so I think he has a good shot.

Good luck getting drafted in the NBA 3rd round.

Hunter will get drafted when he leaves UTEP.

I think the NBA only has 2 rounds in the draft. Appleby will probably play overseas. Hamilton has a shot because he has the size and can really handle the ball well but to make it to the NBA he must become a much better outside shooter. I told my brother early last year that he has that type potential and I look forward to watching him develop over the next couple of years.
