[IASTATE07]

I think Shayok will be on the list somewhere, but who knows.

 

[WastedTalent]

Dedric Lawson will probably be on first team.

Is this preseason or end of the year predictions?

Lindell Wigginton
Desmond Bane
Jarrett Culver
Sagaba Konate
Udoka Azubuike

[Thompsonclone]

If we are predicting preseason All Big 12 teams, I wouldn't be surprised if ISU doesn't have anyone on the first few teams as we didn't have a good year the season before. I think good players on good teams would get the nod ahead of Wigginton/Lard/Shayok/etc. Wouldn't surprise me one bit either to see Quentin Grimes make first or second team.

Newman and Doke are probably gone after this season. Newman has kids (from what I head) and not sure his stock will be any higher if he stays. He raised his pro stock after his Big12 and NCAA touney performance, probably it's best for him to go.

Doke is 50/50. He is raw and has a huge upside that NBA typically loves. Adding his injuries last couple of seasons, I am not sure if he wants to stick around for another season.

Lawson brothers and Charlie Moore will be on the list somewhere.

 

[JM4CY]

If Lindell has a season in which he is unequivocally 1st team all big 12, we very well may need to find a different PG for the following year.

 

[TheJackWePack5]

Lindell is probably the best bet to get on 1st team.

Think a few have potential to get 2nd or 3rd team, but I don't think ISU gets more than 1 or 2 on the first 3 teams.

For KU it probably depends on who stays and who goes. Would think Azubuike, both Lawsons and one of incoming 5 stars probably get on the list.

 

[rholtgraves]

Have no idea on teams but I would bet Lawson is on the first team and player of the year.

I think Wigginton, Lard, Shayok and Babb will all be in contention for different teams if they are all here and no injuries.

 

[Stereotype]

I find it hard to believe that Lindell won't be first team.

 

[Doc]

I could see Dedric Lawson being PoY, and I can also see Self getting frustrated with him and playing some stiff he found on the street instead.

I'll be very happy if Lindell is good enough to be first team, but I think 2nd or 3rd is more likely.

I expect McGusty and/or James to blow up now that Trae Young is gone. I also think a couple dark horses to sneak on a team would be Teddy Allen from WVU and the Weathers PG at Oklahoma State.

 

[MartinCy]

Names italicized are guys I think could realistically not be back next year.

1st Team
Lindell Wiggington G ISU
Barry Brown Jr. G KSU
Dean Wade F KSU
Dedric Lawson F KU
Udoka Azubuike C KU

2nd Team
Jaylen Fisher G TCU
Zhaire Smith G Tech
Jarrett Culver G Texas Tech
Sags Konate F WVU
Dylan Osetkowski F Texas

3rd Team
Kerwin Roach G Texas
LaGerald Vick G KU
Xavier Sneed G KSU
Esa Ahmad F WVU
Cam Lard F ISU

HM:
Quentin Grimes G KU
Charlie Moore KU
Matt Coleman G Texas
Nick Weiler-Babb G ISU
Marial Shayok G ISU
Christian James G OK
Brady Manek F OK
Alex Robinson G TCU
Desmond Bane G TCU
King McClure G Bay
Mario Kegler Bay
Cam McGriff G Ok State

Pretty certain KU and KSU will have multiple players on the top 2 teams. If Dok is gone, I'd probably move up one of the Tech freshmen to 1st team.

Pretty certain Baylor and OK State will be the worst 2 teams in the conference and might have no players on the top 3 teams because of that.

I had a tough time picking some between 3rd team and HM. A lot will depend on the decisions on the guys in italics.

 

[KKramer]

What are Sagaba Konate's pro prospects? Dude has all the skills and athleticism to be a productive NBA post player, he's just not super tall. I would not be surprised to see him test the waters this offseason too.

If he stays, gotta think he's a 1st teamer.

Lawson brothers and Charlie Moore will be on the list somewhere.

I'm not really sure that Doke is much of exciting NBA prospect. Maybe 10 years ago. Can't shoot, can't pass, can't guard a lot of the 5s in the league right now. He'll be great at KU, but I don't see NBA GMs being super excited about his ability to develop a jump shot or guard some of these team's pick and rolls.

 

[ISUCY23]

I think Matt Coleman will be on there somewhere. Really like that kids game.

I hope they both leave
