I voted ā€œdefinitely notā€, but he deserves to be first team for his play on both offense and defense.

I voted no just because I think the Carolina mafia will screw him over. I think heā€™s definitely deserving but itā€™s an automatic that at least 3 spots will go to unc/duke.

He should make it, but donā€™t think he will. If I had to guess itlā€™ll be:

RJ Davis
Hunter Sallis
Blake Hinson
PJ Hall
Armando Bacot

Too easy for voters (subconsciously ?) to think DPOY is enough. Should be just the opposite.

Bacot doesnā€™t deserve it ā€“ insert Filipowski; swap Hinson and Reece. At least, thatā€™s how he gets in. I actually havenā€™t seen anyone include Hinson; not saying he shouldnā€™t be there, but thatā€™s how Reece gets included, and he should.

UVA may be in the 8 team NIL tournament next season

The tournament operator is guaranteeing that sponsors and other tournament partners will offer each school a total of $1 million in NIL money for participating. That money will be funneled to collectives, boosters, or other NIL entities, and the coaches and teams will be able to distribute that money however they see fit, as long as the money goes to current players. The winning team will be eligible to earn another $1 million, to be distributed in the same way.

According to sources with knowledge of the situation, tournament organizers are in discussions with Alabama, Duke, FAU, Houston, Kansas, Oregon, San Diego State, St. Johnā€™s, Syracuse, and Virginia to participate. Each team will also receive free travel, lodging, and meals during the event.

I support.

If I counted correctly, only 7 conferences represented in those 11 teams. Would be strange to play a conference team in a non conference game, but Iā€™m 100% on board with this, and even just being linked to this at all has to be seen as a positive!

With conference consolidation, we will probably see a fair amount of noncon games against conference foes, right?

Highly confident we will find a way not to be involved

Yea that feels too straight forward and easy. This program doesnā€™t do either of those things well or often.
