Sorry i couldn't provide a link. I hate not having one. Got this from SECtalk

I think POY will be close between Stokes and Pressey. Depends on what kind of years they have.

Does that mean we got a first place vote?

If Noel isn't All-SEC, its because someone else had a really good year and not because he fell on his face IMO. He won't be Anthony Davis, but the kid is really good.

Harrison Barnes was a bust if you look at all the hype around him. You'd think he'd been a top 5 pick his freshman season. I think we'll see a mediocre NBA career out of him. He has the tools just not the assertiveness.

I don't think he'll fall on his face, I think he'll have a good year, but not 1st team all sec.

He won't put up the points that will be attractive for that pick, and I seriously doubt hell block shots like Davis.

That's fine. The kid can block shots for sure. Like Davis? No, probably not. I do think its unfair to compare every shot-blocker to Davis though. If Davis didn't exist, there's a chance that people are saying the same glowing things about Noel after this season. He just faces the undaunting task of following one of the best ever.

And I agree with that, he could very well be an incredible shot blocker, but many people an especially UK fans are saying hell be equal to Davis defensively and that's just not fair to him.
