HuskerNationNick Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 Do we have to have an acronym for everything? POTY makes me cringe. Usually it is just POY. Never seen it used as that acronym. Always seen is as POTY. Quote Link to comment
HuskerNationNick Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 So far, I am watching his chances wither away.... Quote Link to comment

SouthLincoln Husker Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 We will now see if Petteway deserves to be mentioned for POTY. It all depends how he responds to the IL game. Quote Link to comment
redout22 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I think its time to re-visit this.. I think Stauskas is the run away winner but TP definitely deserves some votes. Quote Link to comment
Minnesota_husker Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I think its time to re-visit this.. I think Stauskas is the run away winner but TP definitely deserves some votes. He struggled a bit with shooting this last few weeks but deserves to be on the all B1G team. Quote Link to comment

Consideration yes, but I don't believe he will or "should" win. As a Sophomore, he has plenty of time to sharpen his game and be a quality player down the stretch as well. Not saying he isn't a quality player, but he wasn't what he has been these past few games. Quote Link to comment
SouthLincoln Husker Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 All Conference, but definitely in the top 3. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Robin Washut @RobinWashut 5m Terran Petteway joins Marble, Stauskas, Harris and Kaminsky on the first-team All-Big Ten squad. #Nebrasketball Robin Washut @RobinWashut 1m Michigan State’s Gary Harris is the only preseason All-Big Ten pick to make the final first team.

GSG Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I'm guessing Satuskas gets POTY then since he was the only unanimous pick for both coaches and media Quote Link to comment
Foppa Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Who would be in more trouble? Michigan without Stauskas? Or Nebraska without Petteway? Not saying this answers the question, but this no-brainer certainly tells a little story. Again.. it isnt a MVP award... it is best player award. Michigan has other talent... doesnt take away from what he has done. I understand the intent. but still, that's like saying they'll give a Heisman trophy to a player on a mediocre team.
