Tyler Hansbrough can go back-to-back. He could have turned pro and been selected in the first round after each of his first three seasons. Should he win a second straight Oscar Robertson Trophy, he'll join just six others who've done the same -- putting his name on a list that includes Oscar Robertson, Jerry Lucas, Lew Alcindor, Pete Maravich, Bill Walton and Ralph Sampson. If Hansbrough makes first-team All-American, he'll be the first player ever to do that four years in a row.
