However, Sanborn had 30, count them, 30 double doubles.  That's pretty good IMO.

I think that there are multiple All-American candidates from the ODAC this year.  Sanborn and Henson from Guilford should most likely be on the ballot somewhere.  Phillips from EMU should have a chance as well.  Any thoughts on, if or where these players might end up?  Or if any other ODAC players should be considered?

Tyler Sanborn POY  absolutely not! He may get it b/c he is a senior, but he is not the Player of the Year, and not the Most Valuable Player either. The true POY is TODD PHILLIPS - EMU. Each of them had 3 Player of the Week awards. EMU was picked 4th and finished 1st. He crushed Sanborn Head to Head by vaulting his team to a 27pt win in Greensboro, not to mention Todd's E- Rating was 31 vs Sanborns 25 in that game. EMU is also 4-0 vs. Top 25 teams. GC is 2-2 in Conference Top 25. Todd stepped up and willed his team to victory in the big games. Sanborn did not. Sanborn is a great player, a fantastic player and will probably get the award b/c he is the senior with a great stat sheet, however he is not the most deserving. Period

REALLY how can you say Sanborn is not the POY or the MVP of his own team?  He is the one player that Guilford can not win with out.  My man averages around 20 and 14, and when watching the Quakers it is clear that the team works through the big post man.  Honestly after seeing every home game and a good bit of the away games for Guilford I don't see how you could NOT see Sanborn as POY.  Besides the numbers he is a clear leader and opposing coaches have to commit at least two players to guarding him in the post. Phillips and EMU had a great game down here a few weeks ago but that kind of shooting doesn't happen to much, and lets add that there was another young man who put up 21.  Phillips didn't will his team to victory the teams overall shooting did, and besides Sanborn Guilford's offense was pitiful!!!!  Not that EMU's defense was great it really wasn't even good the Quakers just didn't hit open shoots.  So basically watch a game and pay attention to the big man for Guilford and you will see that he is CLEARLY the best player in the ODAC!
