Stauskas on USA Today's All-America Third Team
University of Michigan men's basketball sophomore Nik Stauskas (Mississauga, Ontario/St. Marks [Mass.]) was named today (Thursday, March 13) to USA Today's All-America third team. The honors is Stauskas' second All-America selection after Sporting News named him to its second team...

Come on USA Today...don't take it out on our boy just because he's from Canada. NOT FAIR!
it isn't the "USA" Today for nothing!
/blame Canada
Ennis on 2nd team? That's a stretch.
I guess they should rename these teams to All-North American.
The best player on the best team in the best conference is third team AA? I don't get it.
the best basketball player in the country could be on the worst team, teams performance has nothing to do with how good an individual player is or how good of a season they had on their own. At least it shouldn't matter.
Out of 27 top players (3 teams, plus honorable mention), there are 3 big 10 players. :(
Is it possible that only 3 of the top 27 players are in the big 10? Sure. Is it likely? No, IMO, not very likely at all.

This doesn't make any sense.
you can really justify either of the Syracuse players above Stauskas. Fair has a better case; Ennis definitely didn't deserve 2nd team.
How much love Russ Smith gets. Really just hate everything about that team and their slimeball coach. Hoping they don't win another game this season.
Ennis on the 2nd team is a joke. That's just absurd. Stauskas > Ennis not even debatable.
