The comments on that are brutal. Man is Michigan just so insufferably annoying. Dickinson is great, he's also statistically the 4th or 5th best center in the B1G. They're acting like it's some huge disrespect.

Are some of these awards literally 100% fan vote? I always thought fan vote made up a small portion of the voting. Is that not the case?

Garza gets so much press, but Kofi is a better true center. I wonder if Kofi loses this, maybe he would stay next year just like Garza to claim unfinished business....

Its Kofi 2, Garza 0 at this point :), right?

But congrats to Kofi well deserved... he's put in a ton of work and it shows. It's nice to see some recognition.

I don't know if it's just press. Garza is a damn good college player. Not sure how translatable he is to the NBA game as been mentioned ad nauseum, but that's why he came back. It was the same reasons as Ayo...needs to show scouts what he can do.

Garza didn’t do himself any favors last night. Dickinson ate his lunch.

Perhaps Kofis performance against Michigan will be the deciding factor here

Great recognition. Congrats to Kofi.

There's no shame in giving Garza his due. Doesn't make Kofi any less of an elite center.
