Dickinson? Really?

Wow. Very surprised to see Dickinson instead of Kofi. Was this expected?
As we saw Tuesday, Dickinson is the heart and soul of that team. If he can be controlled, they can be controlled. I can understand him being there.

The way I see it is that they needed a player on the #2 team on the country to be on that list. Even Charles Bassey from WKU is having a better year than Dickinson.
Yeah, I'm going to need help understanding this. I guess they don't want 2 guys from the same team?

- it's all ball bearings, nowadays
Yep, purely political. Complete joke that he's on there and Cockburn isn't.
But I do like the chip-on-the-shoulder aspect of this slight.
It's laughable...
How can Dickinson be on there and Kofi not?!?!
Not to mention in head to head, Kofi shut him down.Yeah, I'm going to need help understanding this. I guess they don't want 2 guys from the same team?

I think we'll get some more Kofi dunks out of this, so I'm passably okay with it.
That's a pretty hot take, considering they completely fall apart when the opposition can competently defend him 1 on 1.Dickinson is only the 3rd best player on Michigan. Pretty sure his Dad owns some Jersey Mike's franchises.
Robbins got the better of him when they got blown out by Minnesota, and we whipped them when Kofi cancelled him out.
When they are playing well, it's largely because of the gravity he creates when he gets the ball on the block. Opens things up for shooters and drives. If you don't have to cheat defending the post, they can be taken out of their comfort zone.
the fact the dickinson is on there is ridiculous. not because kofi should be on here but kofi stats are way better and kofi played much better in the h2h matchup. My pick would be kispert no doubt the number 1 team should have a player and he’s putting up much better numbers than dickinson
If Kofi needed any more motivation to make everybody feel him, and I doubt he does, this can't hurt.
Dickinson doesn't belong on this list. Period.
This is just throwing a sop to Michigan alums.

Dickinson over Kofi ...
Kofi not on there is a joke! You literally could make a good argument that he is the big ten player of the year. He's 4th in points, 1st in rebounding and fg% by big margin, and arguably defensive player of the year! Also carried the team to big wins with Ayo out!
We really do have a shaq/kobe combo! Lucky to have them both!

Makes no sense. No way he belongs on this list and they are not the #2 team in the league.

They are not the #2 team in the country anymore... If anyone - they should have put the "lottery pick" Wagner on

The graphic is a bit misleading. There are 10 semifinalists, 2 being from Gonzaga including Kispert.
