Danomatic Posted June 22, 2020 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 BTN is announcing their All Decade teams starting today, and thus far, Yogi has made the 3rd team.... along with Craft and J. Johnson from PU. Any predictions for our Hoosiers, other than obviously Oladipo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FKIM01 Posted June 22, 2020 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 Well, Cody unless they think he didn't stay long enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milehiiu Posted June 22, 2020 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 I am sure they won't have Walter Bellamy on it. And Calbert Cheaney.... the B1G's all time leading scorer HAS to be on it ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially if he makes it over someone like E’Twaun Moore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PritchardPutBack Posted June 22, 2020 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 It looks like this tweet thread is keeping track of the All-3rd team at least (for those who don't click, it's Aaron Craft, Yogi, JaJuan Johnson, Jordan Murphy, and D'Angelo Russell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope this 2020 class brings a shift in the culture and that Archie's personality finally begins coming out in the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stlboiler23 Posted June 22, 2020 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 I honestly have no idea what we’ll see for the 1st and 2nd teams. Having Swanigan and JaJuan on the same team as Craft is absurd lol. Craft is good but don’t think he’s in the top 15 of the last decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you’re just going by stats, then yes, and it’s also absurd to have him on the same team as Yogi. But as much as I didn’t like Craft and I thought the refs let him get away with a ton of stuff, the fact is he was a great leader, a two-time conference DPOY and starting point guard on teams that won two conference titles (finished 2nd another time), went to two Elite 8’s and a Final Four.

Craft is the type of player that IU needs right now and hopefully Galloway will be that type player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have to think Trey Burke and Cassius Winston would be the pg’s. Kaminsky has to be in there. Vic. Stephens from Penn St. Maybe Anthony Cowan. Valentine from MSU. To appease you, Carsten, but he really only had one exceptional season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way he’s higher than Biggie. I think Carsen will be 2nd team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at this for guys that played multiple years to deserve being all-decade. I would see a better argument as Biggie v Cody because they both only played 2 years. Cowan did it over an extended period of time. Given that, he still would be behind both Burke and Winston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swanigan vs. Zeller is a good debate. Stats are similar over their college careers, but there's no question who's been better since college. If Zeller gets left off, I'd love to hear the criteria for selection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steubenhoosier Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 Agree all day long that Cody has been the more accomplished professional. Mad the criteria is All-B1G, I think they both belong on the all decade team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than volume scoring, show me the stats where he had a better career. Yogi was far better in assists to turnovers. Yogi was a better shooter. Carson scored more points because frankly, he shot a lot more. Sure, he averaged 24 his junior year. He also shot under 40% from the field. Some tourney heroics don't change the overall story. This debate I'm ready for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 Disappointing that Vic was only 2nd team. Though Burke picked up most of the national POY awards that season, Vic did win Sporting News National POY. Burke, Valentine, Draymond, and Kaminsky are the only other B1G players to nab a National POY award during the decade (unless the '09-10' season is counted). I bet the other 4 are first teamers on the all decade team. And, in looking at those other guys, I can't fathom how NABC gave the award to Draymond over Anthony Davis that year.

I think the only thing really holding Vic back is that he never got his team to a Final Four. All of those guys you listed played in the Final Four, with Burke, Draymond and Kaminsky playing in the National Title game. The furthest Vic went was the Sweet Sixteen and when you're splitting hairs it's those things that matter. The caveat to me is Draymond. While he was a NPOY, he only played two of his four seasons in this decade (shouldn't 2009-10 be considered the final year of the previous decade?) and he was more of a role player on his two Final Four teams, as they were his freshmen and sophomore years and not really in this decade.
