The POY race has to be between Shelton, Timme and Podziemski. All 3 have had tremendous years, and all 3 have played instrumental roles in their team’s wins. While I think Timme will win because he has the biggest name, neither he nor Podziemski have had to carry the load that Shelton has. If it weren’t for Cam’s unwillingness to quit, the Lions would’ve finished 9th or 10th in the WCC this season. It’s been a remarkable season and a real pleasure to watch. It’s been a season that we’ll remember for a long time.

I’m just curious how much politics/history would play into the voting for POY. The WCC has only had 3 ties in its history, most “recently” in 06-07 with Sean Denison (Santa Clara) and Derek Raivio (Gonzaga) splitting the vote. With Podziemski, in my opinion, a lock for newcomer of the year; does that leave an opening for Shelton to take away some votes? With Timme winning last year does that take away some votes? Maybe enough to create a tie?

Over the years I have definitely seen instances where politics trumped what happened on the court. That’s primarily why I expect to see Timme get POY again.

The upcoming games may help decide. If the Lions pull off more upsets, Cam has a real shot at winning. The teams overall records are factors. From my experience, Baseball MVPs almost never go to lower finishing teams. Go get them Cam!

I didn’t know that- thanks. I guess we’ll know this week then?
