Me too. He and Dee were the only unanimous 1st team all Big10 selections, I would have thought he would have gotten mentioned for sure.

[PANTHERfan]

way to go ed!

[pnthr97]

If I remember correctly, this is only the second time in history that a UWM player has received this honor. I'm pretty sure Von McDade did back in the day. Hopefully it's Ed's turn to drop 50. ;-)

Congrats to Ed!!!!!



PS- SHOCKED that Wilkinson didn't get any love. He deserves it as he's a truly great player.

Didn't Dylan just receive this honor last year, or am I suffering from early onset. Also, Wilkinson was simply robbed to not be on this list. Period.
