No first teamers, aside from Groody…solid showing on the second teams.

Guess this should be expected given our results on the field……

Though, believe Jean got snubbed in a big way.

season is over and these guys gave it there all but i'm really not a fan of anyone besides jean and groody who made the list. and jean had a lot of drops in the troy game i saw.

Morris not 2nd team OR even HM (3rd in league in rushing yards with NO OL)?? Jean 2nd team, almost 200 yards more recieving than No. 2! WTF are they thinking. Hilton Player of the year??? Rainey leads the NATION in rushing playing for WKU! And how about that Coach of the year at 6-6, Wow!

And Polo and Bartels GET CONFERENCE HONORS - a weak ass cb and s, no wonder we sucked again this year if those are two of our best three defensive players.

I still think we gotta get out of the F___ing Belt ASAP! What a joke of a league!

But congrats to Groody, you did really up your game this year and deserve your honor!

This whole thing is a joke. Always has been. Was Morris a 1st teamer last season? Lester Jean was the # 1 WR in the Sun Belt. I'm not even going to comment on Polo because everyone knows how I feel about him. If you don't just go back and read some of my threads and you'll see. I know everyone bashes Bartels for being a walk on. I actually think he's good at what he does. He may not have the size of some other DB but he's got a bigger heart than ANYONE on this team and it shows.

I know everyone points to Willie Floyd and the wishbone in the game that we beat FIU but if you remember he had 2 INT's. It would have been 3 but one was called back because of a penalty on us (shocker!) and then the next play he intercepted it again anyway. So I have no problems with Bartels being named on the 2nd team All Sun Belt

I will always wonder why people think Polo is so good.
