I tried and kept getting an error message. As much as I love Kofi, I really want to see Ayo selected, given what he has meant to the rebuild of the program.
Me too. Made all my selections, got to the page where I confirm them, then enter my email and confirm I am not a robot, and then get an error message. Using Chrome on my PC. Maybe I'll try a different browser.

Edit - Just tried it with Edge and it worked OK.

Edit2 - Tried it again with Chrome (and a different email addy) and it worked OK. So they must have fixed whatever was wrong.

It worked for me this morning, after having the same problem you had yesterday, so suspect the problem was on their end.

Since fan voting factors into who wins the awards and both Ayo (Cousy PG of the year) and Kofi (Kareem center of the year) are in the final five for their position, we can support the players and the program by voting early and often (once per day per email address is permitted). Winning would be a great accomplishment for Ayo/Kofi as well as a proof point regarding player development within the program that could be useful when recruiting.

If possible, I think having a pinned post with a link to the voting website (http://www.hoophallawards.com) may be helpful as a reminder and help drive votes for Ayo and Kofi.

It was evident probably by mid B1G play of his freshman year that Kofi was going to be our best big man since Auggie. That's how good he's been, and we shouldn't take it for granted.

We really lucked out by landing him (after the FAU disaster no less!)

Surprised to see T. Shannon on this list. He has had a much better career than I expected.

I've been voting for him, his recruitment was weird, it seemed like he wanted to come and we wanted him but...either we were waiting for better, or he was, also seemed he was a silent verbal for a while. Anyway good for him it worked out for both. Maybe he was the piece we're missing.
