Dawson, obviously. But it sure is nice seeing Greg have some success recently.

Totally agree about Greg. He didn't get SOTG against Butler and won't against UNC, but it's great to see him in the thick of the discussion.

Yep. I really like how Greg is getting some love from MU fans again. Dawson for SOTG though.

Surprised nobody voted Perez for his superb inbounding.

Very early in the season, I was guilty of irrational exuberance. I said something like Garcia would start for any team in the country and later, after being challenged, I walked it back a little and said something like he'd start for the vast majority of teams.

The amended version is still true. I'm pretty sure Roy would trade any player in his front court for Dawson Garcia. After seeing a lot of Duke, he'd start there. After seeing Kentucky a few times, he'd start there. Maybe he'd have to be the 6th or 7th man on Gonzaga or Baylor or a few other teams.

He is a talented 6-11 kid with a varied offensive game who also rebounds pretty darn well. When facing a good, tall, shot-blocking defender, he can be a little soft and hesitant - like so many freshmen bigs. He will get stronger and develop more interior moves. He has a very high ceiling.

Again, Dawson Garcia would start for all but a handful of D1 teams.

Another vote for Garcia, but a lot of guys played better than their norm, which was nice to see.
