A-10 Awards
A-10 Awards
For the second season in a row, no one from URI was named. Every other A-10 school was represented.

Re: A-10 Awards
Surprised Fuchs didn't get all rookie team, though I can't say I'm upset because I haven't done a deep enough dive into what everyone else was doing. 8.2 points per game, 6.1 rebounds per game in conference

I agree, a little disappointed Fuchs was left off.RhowdyRam02 wrote: ↑1 month ago Surprised Fuchs didn't get all rookie team, though I can't say I'm upset because I haven't done a deep enough dive into what everyone else was doing. 8.2 points per game, 6.1 rebounds per game in conference
Valentine can also make a case for getting Co-COY.

Part of me wants to say "well we weren't good, we'll get those kinds of accolades when we're good" but then I saw the seasons where we were good, and how our guys continue to get screwed.RF1 wrote: ↑1 month ago For the second season in a row, no one from URI was named.

The battleaxe and the league brass don't like URI for whatever reason. It is what it is.
The fact that Loyola's Miles Rubin made the all freshman team. And David Fuchs did not, is just another in the litany of screw jobs that for some reason ONLY happen to URI.

Who's your pick?
More points, rebounds, assists, minutes per game, less fouls? More double doubles?
Loyola, a brand new league member had more players honored (4) on 5 teams. They had a good A10 season. They will not make the NCAA.
URI's last good teams? 4 players honored on 4 teams. 3 players honored on 4 teams.
And those teams were significantly better in both overall and conference performance than Loyola this year.
Doesn't matter. The goalposts continue to move. This conference and their battleaxe continue to be jokes. Oh and don't forget Yuta Wantanabe was a better defender than Stanford Robinson. (DBPM 0.1 (average defender) vs DBPM 4.6 (elite, significantly above average defender) in 2018.

Re: A-10 Awards
I'm completely shocked Holmes didn't win POY unanimously.
His numbers don't even compare to Jordan King, Dayton was ranked 90% of the season.
Kid is a borderline AA, yet has to share conference POY?
Seems like a team award for King because they were co champs with Loyola.

Re: A-10 Awards
A10 Awards are based on A10 Conference, at least I thought it was A10 games only.

Re: A-10 Awards
Also friendly reminder that the head coaches vote on these awards, so it has nothing to do with the commissioner or other conference employees.

Re: A-10 Awards
Conference play only
Miles Rubin
17.8 minutes per game, 75.4% field goal percentage, 50% free throw percentage, 5.6 points per game (.315 points per minute played), 4.4 rebounds per game (.247 rebounds per minute played), 2.9 fouls per game, .8 assists per game, 1 turnover per game, .5 steals per game, 2.2 blocks per game
David Fuchs
22.4 minutes per game, 57.5% field goal percentage, 30% three point percentage, 62.2% free throw percentage, 8.2 points per game (.366 points per minute played), 6.1 rebounds per game (.272 rebounds per minute played), 2.4 fouls per game, 1.1 assists per game, 1.1 turnovers per game, .4 steals per game, .4 blocks per game
I added the points and rebounds per minute played so that way people couldn't just say Fuchs' advantage was solely based on minutes played.
Fuchs outscored Rubin, he out rebounded the true center, had half a foul a game less in almost five extra minutes played, and had a better assist to turnover ratio. Steals is negligible and he had less blocks than a true center. I'm taking Fuchs

Re: A-10 Awards
Rubin vs. Fuchs is kind of a false choice to me, when both were clearly better than Okojie and (especially) Curry.

Re: A-10 Awards
Was on the overhead screen during the URI St Louis game
Fuchs was 6th in rebounding in A10. He had some injuries that limited his playing time minutes in some games including a concussion causing 3 missed games.
Holmes, Cohen and Cross were all 1st team A10
Hall was 2nd team A10
Fleming a solid center for St Joe’s

6th in the conference for rebounds per game as a freshman, not enough to make the A10 all-freshmen team...ramster wrote: ↑1 month ago Was on the overhead screen during the URI St Louis game

Re: A-10 Awards
Let’s not under estimate the importance of a rim protector as part of a quality defensive team. Fuchs is simply not a rim protector by either his jumping ability or his anticipation.
This could easily be the reason he was not honored and we should consider this limitation of Fuchs for our future.
