Thank you!

[DUShock]

Nice indeed and he will be handful for the next two seasons!

This is not to put Doug down as he is a very good player and probably deserving of the honor given him. But IMO he is the least exciting all-american to watch that I can remember.

1) His dad was not going to recruit him to ISU?
2) I'd love to have a look in Harrison Barnes' head right now.

Congrats to Doug.
Good for Doug.
Good for Creighton
Good for the Valley...

[molly jabali]

Wow!!! I didn't think of that!!! Classic!

[proshox]

Great player.... I enjoy watching him work

[mattdalt]

Great player.... I enjoy watching him work

And not too tiring, seeing as you only have to watch him work half the time (offense) lol

Think he will stay his last two seasons? Or even just his junior year? He doesnt seem, as good as he is, like a typical NBA player. Though at the tournament final, I dont think they could have shown that scout from the 76ers often enough. I hope he stays. League is more fun with him here. Its a nice honor for him and for the Valley. When was our last All-American?

I don't see Doug leaving early. He needs to get much stronger and improve his athleticism. I see him as a four-year player.

The question is, who would not want this sophomore on the roster?
