Griffin has the media on his side. The way ESPN talks abut him you would think he plays for Duke instead of Oklahoma! Wait a second, Jeff Capel is his head coach... now I see the connection.

Personally, all things considered Griffin has to be the man, even though the Big 12 is a weak conference this year, he has OU at the very top of it and in the Top 5 in the country. Any kid who can go for 20 double doubles and lay 40+ points and 20+ rebounds in the same game has to get some love.

IMO,
1. Griffin- See above
2. Hansborough- Reigning POY, has done his part this season, but UNC has not met early season expectations.
3. Curry- Although I think his position has more to do with media infactuation and what he did last year, he is still one of the antion's leading scorers and sole reasons Davidson will easily get a NCAA bid even as an at-large.
4. Meeks- If the SEC was better and if UK was ranked in the Top 15 he would be right there with Griffin.
5. Harangody- One of nation's top scorers despite playing the very best in competition.
6.Thabiet- Best Center in the country, best player on the best team, can get a triple double any given night with blocks, points, and rebounds.
