Tracking 2022 MOTM

[Truth&Justise]

Thought I'd take a step back and look at who has most consistently been voted Man of the Match so far this season. Full disclosure, this was based on my hunch that Paolo Banchero, who is leading this team in scoring and rebounding and looking like a #1 pick, has never been voted Man of the Match. So far that is correct.

	Kentucky (11/9)	Army (11/12)	Campbell (11/13)	Gardner-Webb (11/16)	Lafayette (11/19)	Citadel (11/23)	Gonzaga (11/26)	Ohio St (11/30)	SC State (12/14)	App State (12/16)
Wendell Moore		64	19		36	30	56	43		54
Paolo Banchero	2	1	10			24	4
Trevor Keels	51			39					1
Mark Williams				16	9		59
Jeremy Roach			9	5						2
AJ Griffin					15				37	1
Joey Baker			12						2
Theo John	1
Bates Jones		1
Keenan Worthington									4

Note, there doesn't appear to have been an MOTM poll after the Elon game, though I suspect Trevor Keels would have won that poll. But in sum:

First Place Finishes: Moore (6), Keels (2), Williams (1), Griffin (1)
Second Place Finishes: Banchero (3), Moore (1), Williams (1), Roach (1), Griffin (1), Baker (1), Jones (1), Worthington (1)
Third Place Finishes: Banchero (2), Williams (1), Roach (1), Griffin (1), Baker (1), John (1)
Fourth Place Finishes: Keels (1), Roach (1)

Right now voting is underway for MOTM last night, and AJ Griffin is just edging out Banchero.

I suspect this is a lot like Coach of the Year voting, which weighs heavily on how much a candidate exceeds expectations. So just like Coach K is consistently the best, but never wins that award any more, I submit Banchero has been consistently excellent, but never recognized accordingly in these threads.

Thanks for this chart. It looks like we surely needed that Mark Williams guy in the Zags game. Will probably need him against those cheaters from Chapel
Hell.
