Outstanding!

 

[hotelblue]

he majorly deserves it. i'm very proud of the guy. and one of cal's great moments too when you consider his development.

WCS is certainly deserving and so is KAT. Both of them should be first team AA.

Great news! Go Big Willie!!!

(*guess that platoon thing didn't hurt him too much)

Interesting to see the Montrezl was preseason AA, but is on no radar for post season AA. Way to develop that talent Ricky. I'm sure it will not go unnoticed either.

Congrats to Big Willie. He deserves it.

I believe that was more of Montrezl's doing than Pitino - kid didn't represent himself to the best of his abilities at times - attitude wise.

I'm surprised.

We don't typically get a lot of the AA's just because they wind up sharing the spotlight with 3-4 other stars. This year, with the platoon system, I really didn't think we'd get anyone on that list.

Today we have him First Team All American on NBC Sports, Sporting News, and Bleacher Report. Many more accolades to follow, I'm sure.

Good thing Kansas didn't want him

Well deserved...

Congrats, Willie.

Now show them why in the next 9 games.

Kind of a funny thing to think of. We have a 10 man rotation/platoon. Nine of those guys were McDonalds All Americans and the 10th is now a collegiate All American on, at least, three lists now. How cool is that??

Congrats WCS!!! You earned it bro.
