The All-Unheralded Teams

[CardiacKemba]

Tired of watching ESPN or Fox Sports and hearing about the same group of players everyday? Well so am I! So i took it upon myself to accomplish the task of appointing the all-unheralded team. The following players were deemed ineligible for the following lists due to their preseason hype...so here's a look at some guys who are also having great seasons, but not getting the recognition they deserve..

Criticism is not only welcomed, but encouraged, but be nice I'm sensitive! Let me know who's missing, let me know who you think should be getting more pub!

Justin Jackson, C/PF, Cincinnati

The guy is a beast.

I considered Jackson actually, have heard good things about him, but his numbers dont stack up well against other players.

 

[mr.hockey4242]

Jackson has really stepped up his game so far this year in his senior year. But I wouldn't call him a beast.

Let's see how he does against some better competition.

I think he's certainly a defensive beast. Over 3 blocks a game. I'm a homer, though.

He's a joy to watch. He goes all out 100% of the time.

Yeah he is a really good defender as well. I guess that needs to be in consideration too.

I remember the past few years he was a big time hustle guy. Good to see he's putting it together final season.

He added close to 30 pounds over the summer. Cronin regrets not pushing him harder now since this is his last season.
