[DukeGirl4ever]

I didn't see this anywhere, but mods feel free to move.

Let's get those votes in for Kyle!

[ElSid]

Too bad Nolan isn't on there, too. Nolan carries himself with a lot of class.

[Fish80]

Kyle is currently in second place behind Lighty. Vote, vote vote!

[billyj]

Voted for Mr Singler, twice.

[pfrduke]

Do your civic Duke duty and vote people!

[MCFinARL]

Also, Jasmine Thomas is on the women's ballet, where she currently has a big lead. If this has already been posted somewhere on DBR, my apologies; I didn't see it.

Don't forget to vote today!
Kyle is in 2nd place but drastically behind David Lighty.

Why can't we have a write in or other and vote for Nolan?

Check out their About section for the voting process.
According to their site, it says:

The Senior CLASS Award® recognizes these student-athletes for great achievement during competition and in their community while staying in school.

I know Kyle does community service work back home with his basketball tournament along with the normal Duke community service work that the entire team participates in. Does Nolan do anything like that? I know I have read a few articles on Kyle's tournament, but honestly can't remember if I've seen anything for Nolan (and that's not a knock on Nolan).
I think the reason Kyle was selected was because of that, but I'm not sure.

Guys and gals, the Ohio State fans have come out in force - David Lighty now has 27% of the votes, and Kyle is in third (also trailing Matt Howard). We may not have the voting power of tOSU, but we can do better than this. You can vote every day - let's get on it!

I wonder if it's "frowned upon" to use the student computers in my classroom to vote for Kyle. :p

Nolan does a lot for his community in Maryland, including helping out at basketball camps, taking high school basketball players under his wing, and just being an amazing model citizen. He may not have a basketball camp with his name on it, but he does a lot for the community.

I think the reason that Nolan isn't listed is because you only have 1 senior per school and Kyle was the pre-season NPOY (and hence gets more recognition).

If that is the case, then the system doesn't work. You need to have Nolan's name in that list.

Thanks so much for that info! I hope I didn't come across as knocking Nolan; I just truly hadn't read anything about his community work. I tend to follow Kyle a little bit more, which is why know a little more about what he's done. I also think ESPN or one of the game broadcasts ran a little segment on Kyle's camp.

I do agree Nolan should be a candidate. He has been nothing but exceptional in all aspects.

[MCFinARL]

Jasmine Thomas now down to sixth in the women's balloting--if you go to vote for Kyle the chance to vote for Jasmine too is just a click away!

[Merlindevildog91]

Vote early, vote often, vote for Kyle and Jaz.

[pfrduke]

People, Kyle is in 5th. 5th. He's even trailing Tyrel Reed. This is inexcusable. Get in there and vote. (and vote for Jasmine, too)

[Merlindevildog91]

Kyle has more votes than Jimmer Fredette, but he's still WAY behind.

Vote from all your available computers.

[Newton_14]

I just entered my votes for Kyle and Jasmine. Please remember to vote for both each day!

[DukeDevilDeb]

Early in the voting, both Kyle and Jasmine were doing well. Now, there are 5 people ahead of Jasmine (she has 10%), and there are three ahead of Kyle (he has 10%). David Lightly of OSU has a BIG lead, but Matt Howard is ahead of Kyle!!! You remember him, the guy who "picked" Kyle to the floor at the end of last year's National Championship game!

There are a lot of good players, folks, but PLEASE... we can't have Kyle beaten by Howard! We've got the hardware, now Kyle and Jasmine need our votes!

[cakerace]

Jasmine is currently one of seven players between 11 and 14.4%. With the voting that close, it's your chance to make a difference...

[nocilla]

Losing one game is no excuse to miss voting for Kyle and Jasmine.

[pfrduke]

Kyle is in 4th, but below 10%. Let's give a good push today and get him back in double digits. As for Jasmine, she's in 7th, but just 4% behind the leader, with lots of people to pick off in between with a good voting day. Get in there and do your thing!

[SCMatt33]

Keep voting for Kyle (http://www.seniorclassaward.com/vote/mens_basketball_2010-11/) and Jasmine (http://www.seniorclassaward.com/vote/womens_basketball_2010-11/). Jasmine especially needs votes since the points are allocated based on place and not percent of vote. She is so close to so many others.

[GLTBD]

Please vote today and everyday.

[noyac]

We are not doing our jobs as Duke fans if we don't vote everyday. Keep bumping this and I will remind everyone.

[DukeGirl4ever]

Daily bump! VOTE FOR KYLE AND JASMINE!

[karnwenhan]

Bump

[SCMatt33]

Keep voting everyone!

[Devil07]

Bump. Kyle is slipping (he's below 8% now) so don't forget to vote!

[superdave]

Kyle is currently a distant 4th. Please vote.

[GLTBD]

BUMP

They won't let me vote. When I tried to register they wouldn't let me, because there was already somebody with my email address registered. I tried using one of several user names I've used in the past, and punched the forgot password button. On each try I got an invalid user name message. So now the password and user name are a total mystery to me, and I can't register unless I use some other email address. I'm in a loop, and I cannot escape. http://crazietalk.net/ourhouse/images/smilies/43.gif

Hmm....I didn't have to register to vote (THIS YEAR). I can't remember if I had to register last year when I voted for Jon.
The only thing it asks me to do is enter a "text string" or code but I submit my vote because you can only vote once a day.

Anyone else have to register?

Yeah you shouldn't have to register (I've never had to register to vote for the Lowe's award). The link at the top of this thread (or right here (http://www.seniorclassaward.com/vote/mens_basketball_2010-11/)) should take you to a voting page (white box where you check Kyle's name and enter a random string of characters to prove you're real, blue background).

As far as I can tell, there isn't even a place on the page to register or log in...sure you're at the right site?

Edit: Here's a screen shot of what the page should look like...if that's not what you're getting that's very strange

[Andre Buckner Fan]

Kyle is currently a distant 4th. Please vote.

How can Kyle and Jimmer be so far behind?

[SCMatt33]

How can Kyle and Jimmer be so far behind?

Don't be discouraged by how far behind he is. Points in the final tally are distributed by what place he comes in during the voting. Right now, we need to make sure he doesn't slip to 5th and tries to pass Howard for third. 1st or 2nd seems like a real long shot right now.

Yeah, that's the screen I got today, but it tells me that I need the current version of the Flash Player which is installed here and working, but not for Kyle. It gave me a link to the download of the current, so I downloaded and installed it, but no joy. I cannot vote. I'm so depressed. http://crazietalk.net/ourhouse/images/smilies/46.gif

Lots of good candidates (no Nolan) I voted Kyle and couple others. (You get to pick 3)

[Merlindevildog91]

Vote early, vote often. BTW, if you are on Facebook, and "like" the Senior Class awards, you can vote via Facebook AND through the website on the same computer, the same day.

I wonder why Kyle didn't even show up in Houston as a finalist for the Senior Class Award. Jimmer won.

[FireOgilvie]

Maybe he's actually going to his senior classes.

[1 24 90]

Maybe he's actually going to his senior classes.

Well Nolan is down in Houston. (presumably for the Naismith award presentation)

[DukeGirl4ever]

I wonder if Kyle went home??? I saw a few of the other players went home for the weekend and maybe Kyle went home to see his brother play??

Just a thought..I, of course, know not a darn thing! :D

[94duke]

Was he watching his brother win the CBI?
