I'm surprised Courtney Ramey didn't make the All Defensive Team. I also would've voted for TJ Otzelberger for COY.

I probably would've voted adams

Adams would've been my second choice.

I know, but the reason I'd give the nod to Otzelberger over Adms is it's more impressive to me to take a team that went 2-22 the year before to 20-11 and making the NCAA Tournament in his first year than taking an already good team that made the tournament last year and moving up the standings some.
