I love Stephen Curry and also think that that Hansborough belongs, but beyond these two it seems to me to be a week year.

Your opinion?

I think the only one on that list that is there after the season is The Traveler.

Assuming characteristic seasons from both, I think Hansbrough and Harangody will stay on the list at the end of the season. Curry may as well, depending on how well his team does this season. I am skeptical but not dismissive about Griffin -- his high placement seems more NBA Draft oriented than anything, but if he dominates the Big 12 he may deserve it. I am skeptical and dismissive about Collison.

I don't know if All-America teams require spots for every position on the court, but I should think the best players by March will be overwhelmingly forwards.

I agree that, right now, it looks like a weak year.

All-American teams are not generally position-specific.

Is it me or does it seem like Darren Collison has been with UCLA for 10 years?

Perhaps it's just nightmares of "the other" Collison:(.

Harangody's got game.
