All Americans

[Pat Coleman]

Kind of daring to put Jared Jenkins (UWSP) on there since there is a lot of speculation that he won't play this year (may be trying for an NFL career).

Yep. But we couldn't rule him out. I did hold the team for a few days to sleep on this decision in particular, but we decided he was too good to leave off.

A gutsy call - I salute you.

Did you have similar qualms about the injured Peter Bunn?

Preseason calls are such a crapsshoot.

[Pat Coleman]

Yep. Read the news coverage and decided since he wasn't ruled out for the season that he should be included.

Very Senior-laden again this year.  That always allows for some good underclassmen surprises during the season.

Looks like a strong list; it also seem like the committee has done a good job looking beyond the major programs.

Markeith Wilson 6'4 G should be an All American with the # he is putting up

I dont mean to nitpick here, but the Rust College Website does not have any scores reported, let alone individual player statistics:

http://www.rustcollege.edu/bearcat_athletics_men_basketball.html

Therefore, it is difficult to know what kind of numbers he is putting up, or if those numbers are of the All-American variety.

Picky, picky, picky.  I'm sure coach was speaking metaphorically....

When I made this post, the NCAA had not reported stats yet for D3, the first posting was made yesterday (Dec 14) for games through Dec 12, so now it is possible to check the NCAA site.

22nd in scoring at 21.3 pts

Jonathan Jones (Kean) definitely deserves serious consideration. The 6-5 senior center is averaging 25.4 ppg, 15.8 rpg and is shooting 55% from the floor through eight games. He also has 19 steals (tops on the team). I saw him play against York (NY) and was very impressed. He gave York's All-American center, Marcel Esonwune, all he could handle.

Jones has few, if any, flaws in his game. He is an excellent low-post player, very strong, runs the court very well, has a pretty good outside touch and good instincts. He's not as athletic as Esonwune and can't jump or block shots like Marcel, but Jones is more skilled overall and is stronger.

 I saw Jones against Scranton via videocast Monday and he was impressive with 20 points, 13 rebounds, 7 offensive. This was his eighth consecutive double-double.

[David Collinge]

Going strictly by stats, he's probably in the top 25 guards. Definitely behind Lamonte Thomas, Eryk Watson, Tony Mane, Logan Wolfram, DaQuan Brooks, Nick Rose, Todd Zimmerman, Steve Djurickovic, Amad Hassan, Will Hanley, Asmar Capers, and Kevin Breslin.
