The low PPG average will probably doom him, but it's such a shallow stat that I had to dive into Kolek's larger case for All-America status.

These are the kind of player comps we should be hearing.

It all depends on whether voters have seen him play.
Good stuff. Thank you. Kolek should be an all American and I think he will be.
We're all very close to this situation -- we very much want Kolek to be an All-American, and the great usage of advanced stats by Andrei helps the case.
Even those fixated on PPG should be able to see how Kolek has improved his scoring as the season has gone on, how he averaged 15 on .512 shooting in Big East play - only 1 fewer ppg than Gillespie last season.
Hopefully, most of the voters are informed enough to know stuff like that. We'll see.

Love it. Very surprised he beat out Sasser.
When are the votes due?
(I think he deserves it ... but will prob end up 2d or 3d team )
