You have confused me with #2, the
HS Naismith POY. For 2013 Wiggins was it but he went to Kansas. They haven't announced it for 2014 yet. It could end up being Karl Towns.

1. John Wall
2. No clue
3. Reggie Hanson
4. Brandon Knight
5. Rex Champman
6. Don't know the regions in Kentucky, but I will guess Darius Miller
7. Purdue
8. Brassow and Burrow (I believe Burrow holds the rebounding mark at 27, I think Old Norm posted that once)
9. Keith Bogans
10. I read that somewhere but can't remember. I will go with Carrot!
I feel good about 6 of my answers.
Fun stuff!!

Wife's Mad. Told me we never talk anymore. And just last nite while watching super bowl told her 2 or 3 times to get me a coke and popcorn. Also told her not to forget to take out trash in the morning. Ain't that something. Also told me I was too indecisive. Can't figure out what to do about that. One nice thing I guess. She called me a pro crastinator. Don't know what a crastinator is but I guess I'm a good one for her to call me a pro. Gonna wait til tomorrow to look that up though. I love her but somrtimes can't help but thinking I should have told uncle Junior to keep his coon hound pup and stevens double barrel and also his youngest daughter.

I'm beginning to wonder if that is suppose to say "former" and not "future". I know that Ron Mercer won the award, but not sure if any other Cat has won. Davis may have, but I think Rivers beat him out.
