Lucas: UNC Basketball Mailbag

Posted Mar 18, 2009
Two voters, who have yet to be identified, left Ty Lawson off their All-ACC first team, which means they saw five better players in the league this year. But player of the year voting is separate from All-ACC voting. When filling out a ballot, voters are first asked to list their five members of the All-ACC team. Then they pick one player as the player of the year. It sort of sounds like voting twice for the same thing. (Tar Heel Blue)
