*unanimous selection

Awesome.

Mick deserves AAC COY but it will probably go to the guy who finished in 3rd place.

Only unanimous choice on the 1st team probably makes Clark the POY.

Who votes on this?

Thanks.

Evans for DPOY and Clark for POY?

Here's my guesses
Defensive Player of the Year - Gary Clark
Most Improved Player - Shaquille Morris
Sixth Man of the Year - Armoni Brooks or Cane Broome
American Player of the Year - Gary Clark
Rookie of the Year - Shawn Williams
Coach of the Year - 1) Frank Haith 2) Kelvin Sampson 3) Mick

Clark should probably get both, but I doubt that would happen.

That first team is actually a real basketball team. Usually its just a bunch of guards. I would take that lineup over jiat about any conference’s.

Congrats to Clark, Evans and Washington! Much deserved honors.

Well earned and well deserved. Getting some conference love!

Yeah, that team would destroy for sure.

From a statistical standpoint ...... https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/con.../2018.html

Gary Clark should easily be the player of the year in the AAC.

That team would win an NC honestly.

That would be a really awesome tournament idea. After the NCAAs, all leagues send their 1st/2nd teams as All Stars and play for charity or money for the league. Who wouldn't watch that. Never would happen, but it would be pretty awesome.

Along this topic, NBA draft.

Thank you for sharing that. I doubt the people who vote pay attention, but that certainly looks impressive. Certainly wouldn't hurt the school/fans/conference to campaign for him.
