I think the Wooden voting ended before the Kansas game, while the Naismith voting ended after Trey's big shot. If that's correct, then Trey should win the Naismith by a bigger margin. The Wooden voting was pretty close.

Man when it's all said and done its going to be tough for any player to win the amount of awards he has. He must feel on top of the world.

But the real question is, is it made of Wood?

We need a Trey Burke meme such as "all the hardware belongs to me" sorta deal. Definitely something better than that but pretty much something like that.

Congrats Trey! Such a great representative of Michigan! Now beat Syracuse!

So basically he's a shoe-in for the Naismith too. A quick look showed the last time the Wooden and Naismith haven't gone to the same person was in '95.

I think this is the fourth time in the last 24 hours that we've had occasion to congratulate Trey Burke, and this time for the Wooden Award. As I recall, he's a finalist for the Naismith too, and I think that announcement is Sunday. Go for the sweep, Trey, and congratulations yet again!
