If there was a box to click next to KPs name, I would click on that box.

If there were a box marked Defense that would have been my vote. So many beautiful turnovers.

Kendall has proven once again that when he is on the court every other player gets better. He was a beast on the boards and his defensive presence has elevated the entire defense. No offense to Charles on this, as he is looking more and more like the A-10 MVP.

KD all the way. That guy was averaging 19 PPG and KD shut him down with attitude. Why did their offense look like crap all night? Because their leading scorer was 1-11 with 4 points!!
How can you vote for anyone else?!

We could shelve these polls and just give to Charles Cooke for the year. What a beast.
But I voted for Kendall, not for the 12/12 which was good enough, but for all the rehab he put in and got to where he already can play balls out for 31 minutes. And he did it without excessive fouling. KP is the hammer! Gives everybody swagger.

CC had great all-around game. Doesn't mean other guys didn't also do a fantastic job but Cooke was a beast today.

Charles Cooke III makes sure we don't lose a 15 pt lead in 90 seconds. If the offense is stuck in neutral and the opponent hits a couple buckets, he takes over.

Even with Josh maybe not returning this year, the swagger of these 4 seniors is going to lead the way. I like this team's attitude. Strap in boys and girls......gonna be an awesome finish

I was a little surprised KP got PoG honors. Thought the name Deevontaneous needs some consideration.

It wasn't just KD that shut him down, Cooke was on him a lot today and did just as well defending him as KD did.

Although The PRIDE OF BEATTY made a very solid contribution; I must be getting all "unsentimental" because I voted for Pollard.
But I love you XW, you've got game, and you are playing well. You are the Pride of Beatty...
Proud of you!!!

Cooke again had the stats and "A" performance. Pollard sent the message and was the difference maker with his defense and attitude. He brought the "T" to team in the first half like we have not seen it this year. Pollard easily got my vote.

Nate Green, Charles Little, Kendall Pollard all have had the same effect on our swagger.

My only complaint
Yes, I know I worry too much, but in a game that we lead by an average of 15 to 20 points the entire second half, why did Kendall play 31 minutes? Given his history of injuries and reported knee and thigh conditions, I would limit his minutes when his royal butt kicking presence is not needed on the court. We have a lot of Flyer hoops yet to play, including well into the month of March.

Serious answer: he was playing well and needs to get in better shape, as well as get more reps (both for himself and with the other guys so they all get used to playing together). We also have a week off before the next game, and that's the game he is probably most excited for.
In addition, who knows how Sam was feeling. They might have known he was kind of fatigued and only able to give us a few solid minutes. Finally, against that athletic frontline, KP is a much better matchup.
In general, of course you're right that we need to watch his minutes going forward though.
