DJO Magic and Crowder nominated for national player of the week (vote here) for senior day 83-69 win over #12 GeorgetownWritten by: noreply@blogger.com (bamamarquettefan1)We can't add much to the performance yesterday. While many teams lose in the emotion of senior day, DJO showed the magic inside moves around the trees and hit a feather shot trey from the parking lot, and Jae Crowder made the case for his third straight Big East Player of the Week award as he was nominated for ESPN's National Impact Player of the Week (vote here) (http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/feature/index?page=caponecup).
Enough said, the players did the talking this weekend. Here are the other three nominees who put up fantastic games this week. I know people often overlook that Jae is one of the best in the US at not turning it over, but just sayin':

MUScoop - get this post on the top of the home page to get people to vote for Jae.
He has pulled to within 10% of Sullinger (35% to 25%) with Marshall in between them, but it may be tough with 100 million alums and fans from OSU and UNC.
Hmm .. important enough to send out a system wide email, hit 6500 Scoopers... not sure.
When does the voting end?
Not to take anything away from Sullinger, but I think a 26 pt, 14 reb, 5 stl, utter dominant performance of a number 12 ranked team trumps a game-winning field goal.. against northwestern.
Crowder is about 2000 votes behind.
Looks like the voting is over.
