I guess these will be announced tomorrow, right?
My picks for first team:
Marcus Townes (Loyola)
Armon Fletcher (SIU)
Phil Fayne (IlSU)
Nick McGlynn (Drake)
Cameron Krutwig (Loyola)
POY:
Marcus Townes (Loyola)
COY:
Darian DeVries (Drake)
Plenty of room for argument about these--I'm just taking a stab at it. 🙂

Nick McGlynn (Drake)
Marques Townes (Loyola)
Milik Yarbrough (Illinois State)

He predicts we defeat UNI 66-64.

Interesting. I picked Fayne over Yarbrough because their main numbers (scoring & rebounding) are practically the same and Fayne is a better defender. (And there are those...uh..."intangibles" concerning Yarbrough that no stats can measure.)
Also interesting that Pippen is in there--must be for his shot-blocking ability.

Good choice. Yarbrough is a real knucklehead. IF he lived up to his true potential he could dominate the league, as it is he is an underachiever.
I can’t disagree with McGlynn at all. He should be there.
Yarborough has NBA talent so I agree he's a bit of an underachiever. He and Fayne: 1st or 2nd team. Darrell Brown, A.J. Greene on the 2nd team - good players.
Devries is COY hands down, followed by Dana Ford.

I'll defer to you on the second team choices. I haven't followed the league (or SIU) as much as I have in past years. I would imagine you'd have to put Key on there too, and I imagine he will get votes for first team.

He's actually my second choice for POY.
