I think four players are pretty much locks at this point - even if one of them is hit by Covid (or worse).

Loren Jackson- Akron
Marreon Jackson - Toledo
Justin Turner - Bowling Green
Danny Pippen - Kent


So who is No. 5 -- Preston (OU), Mballa (UB), Plowden (BG), JWilliams (UB), Littleson (UT). Or somebody else???

I think in a normal year the answer is Preston but between him being out injured and Ohio on pause I don’t think he has played in enough games to get the nod.

I think Jeenathan Williams deserves it. He’s been the best player for Buffalo all year. I am biased though

Milner for Toledo has been consistent as can be. He's scored between 12 and 18 every game of the year, (it seems). Steady with 7 boards and a good fg percentage could land you on first team. I dont know Williams from UB's stat line.

From a Toledo perspective this is my opinion:

M. Jackson 1st team and maybe POY
Littleson 2nd team
Milner 3rd team (if there is one)
Shumate Honorable Mention
Rollins Freshman of the Year
Coack K Coach of the Year

However, all this does not mean much if the team does not make the NCAA tourney

While some point to Toledo's preseason Covid pause as a big key to success ... I go back to the fact UT was the only MAC program in the league that had players on campus and stuck to its summer practice sked. For new players like Milner, Rollins, Shumate to blend in so quickly, in hindsight, that had to be key.

If the season ended today this is who would be on my 1st team All-MAC team

M. Jackson
LCJ
D. Pippen
J. Turner
J. Williams

I just can't justify including Preston since he has only played 8 in MAC games.

I think Littleson has a shot if he shoots #1 in the league in 3 percentage and #1 in 3s made. It wouldnt hurt to score 20 at some point. Hes got 84 made (#2 in the nation), and shooting 47.7% (#22 in nation, but like 3 have made a good amt).

Preston, Mballa, Plowden, Littleson, Freeman

(Freeman may be the most important player in the league. His rebounding and blocks speak for themselves but few notice his picks give LCJ room to shoot/drive/score).

A few years ago when CMU had the one real good three point shooter. Did he make the 1st team? Dileo? maybe it was someone else.
