Harrison Barnes named CBSSports.com Preseason National Player of the Year

Posted Oct 18, 2010
Harrison Barnes is the CBSSports.com Preseason National Player of the Year. And, yes, I know he hasn't played a game in college yet. But that doesn't matter much because I've seen Barnes enough over the past two years to know greatness is coming -- just like I knew greatness was coming with Kevin Durant back in 2006-07, with Derrick Rose back in 2007-08, and with John Wall last season.
