tcbailey24's College Basketball Team

With ESPN releasing their All American college basketball team today, I decided to create my own team of current college players. Now, my team doesn't have all the star players or the ones you would think would be on it or the most well known or popular players, but I guarantee if this team played any other All American Team, this team would be victorious every time just because I think they would complement each other really well. So without anymore waiting, here is my team:

Starters:

G- Sean Singletary, Virginia

G-Robert Jarvis, Oral Roberts

G- DeMarcus Nelson, Duke

F-Donte Green, Syracuse

F- DeJuan Blair, Pittsburgh

Bench:

G- Tyrese Rice, Boston College

G- Jerel McNeal, Marquette

G- Jack McClinton, Miami

F-Ryan Anderson, Cal

F- Robbie Hummel, Purdue

There is my team. If you think I missed anybody or you have a comment, they are all welcome.

Sean Singletary

That's an interesting take. I can't hate on any of the selections - but no Michael Beasley? The guy is so good!

Of course I would take Beasley, but he is in that group with all those eally outstanding players like Hansbrough and Love. My team is based off of some of the hidden gems in college basketball(excluding Nelson).

Good call on Sean S. That dude is a beast.

No doubt D-Man, you know that I'm a Duke fan, but when $$ hit that game winning shot against Duke last season, I was in awe.

That shot was so nasty. They don't get much better than that.

Blair is a beast! What about Wil Daniels from URI (A-10) or Ed Tyson from UMES (MEAC)? Solid gems.

Good topic. Blair is a beast. What about Will Daniels from URI (A-10) or Ed Tyson from UMES (MEAC)? Hidden gems for sure.

TC.... HUM.... That team is average at best bruh. It will win some games, but how about this one : Pg Eric Maynor (Bench Drew Lavender) Sg Jerryd Bayless (Bench Stephon Curry) Sf Chase Budinger(Bench Patrick Patterson) Pf Brook Lopez (Bench Dj White) C Hasheem Thabeet ( Bench AJ Ogilvy) Get at me! lol! JK.

come on man, my team would beat yours. You know how good Singletary is, same with Nelson. I know how good Blair is b/c he ripped Duke when Duke played Pitt, Jarvis is just straight sick, and Donte Green is probably the most underrated freshman in the country. Plus my team is more of a really underrated team, stars that most people don't know

Other than Tajuan Porter, Drew Lavender can hold his own for real! No one expected him to be this decent at all! I would love to see Nelson chase Curry around for 40 plus minutes! Green is nice this much is true, But Ogilvy is slept on as well. Maynor and Singletary would be fun to watch also. But i like my squad as well. lol!

your squad is very good, I like Lavender and Curry, those are two real good ones.

I think I'm going to put up a bench w/ my team cuz I forgot about it

"I think I'm going to put up a bench w/ my team cuz I forgot about it"

LOL. Yeah, there are so many good players. Gotta have a bench. Put Scottie Reynolds on it, maybe. He could take DeMarcus, I think.

Yeah, i was wondering about that! lol! and the Reason Blair beasted Duke the way he did, Y'all have been soft in the middle for a few years now. Blair is good, But Ogilvy can take him outside.

eh not bad. I would replace McClinton with Scottie Reynolds. I see you like to small ball it a lot. That won't cut it in March brother! Still a decent squad though.

I do like the smaller lineups cuz usually a team is a lot more athletic when you have a smaller lineup. I'm not saying big guys can't be athletic, but it just my preference to be smaller, and more athletic

I agree with you on smaller lineups, TC. Villanova plays that way. It's fun to watch perimeter shooters. But live or die on the perimeter, and that goes for defense, too. G'town toasted 'Nova today from deep. Also, if you're a perimeter team with size (e.g. Duke) you should learn to ball in the paint some more. For the tourney, definitely.

You're only gonna go so far with small ball. You can run the opposition to death for 40 plus, but eventually there will be some liabilities as far as crashing the boards on both ends. I really don't see Sean Singletary beasting Patrick Patterson, or McClinton gaining position with Lopez.

You're right on the $$$ with Scottie R.

Tyler Smith-Tennessee, he was the reason they beat Memphis, his jumper in the lane with 26.5 seconds left was almost unbelieveable.

I'm still waiting for Duke Crews to come into his own. I know health has kinda plagued him a tad, I think he will have a much better Junior campaign next fall.

Scottie Reynolds? Please, Dewey. TC, you know I'm a Dookie so I can't argue much about DeMarcus. But what about Henderson? He's got to be in the mix.

I definitely considered him, but some of these others guy like Singletary and Rice are just a little better as all around players. I think next year tho will be a breakout year for Henderson. Go Duke

Gerald Henderson?! Not this year. Next Year for sure. There are other players out there who are more sound than Henderson. Gerald is ok, but i don't think he has come into his own yet. Like i said, by next year, he will really flourish. I might be a Carolina fan till the death, but i am also a Basketball fan first.

I think he doesn't some rec cuz Arkansas B-Ball doesn't get that much attention, I've seen him play once and he seems like a good one, but I couldn't put him up cuz I have only seen him once and can't judge on one game

It's because they aren't 40 minutes of hell anymore, those were fun teams to watch with Todd Day, Scottie Thurman, Corliss Williamson and there was Nolan Richardson walking the sidelines in his silk suits with cowboy boots. They're just another team now.

FUCK GREG PAULUS!!! The only thing keeping me from actually liking DUKE. And good luck getting tc to put up some UNC guys, even though Tyler Hansbrough is the biggest bitch in my eyes. He went for the under the radar guys anyways. Jarvis Varnado should be on the list... he averages 8 points, 8 rebounds, and 5 blocks a game. Also Jamont Gordon 18 points, 5 assists, 6.4 rebounds. Both good players worthy of some lime light...

No Beasley or Hansbrough? I can't take that list seriously. D-Nelson doesn't deserve to be in there and I love Duke. Love that Sean Singletary pick though. He's so underrated.

...And someone else who hasn't got much love from the mainstream media is Jerryd Bayless from Arizona. That guy is amazing. I watched Arizona-Stanford and the Bayless-Lopez Bros. were going back and forth everytime.

but your team is not a sleeper team, everyone knows who those players are, my list is more of an underrated list. Nobody knows who Robert Jarvis is, DeJuan Blair and Donte Green should get a lot more rec, and Singletary and Nelson you know cuz they are in the ACC, but otherwise aren't bigger names like Budinger, Lopez, and Bayless

Then what would yours be?! I've heard of 8 of the 10 guys you have mentioned? Hummel and Anderson to me aren't Household names so i can't say i've heard of them. So actually 20% of your squad are virtual ''unknowns''. You don't hear Maynor, Curry, nor Lavender's name as much as well. So i guess neither of us have a sleeper teams, but Quasi ''Royse Roycers.'' Stop me if i'm lying.

well I'm not saying you haven't heard of all of them cuz your a good CB fan, but to most people wouldn't know who Jarvis, Green, Hummel, Anderson, or even Blair is. I'm not trying to talk right to you but to the general CB followers

lol! Fair Enough bruh. I still wanted to play y'all Tomorrow! I guess Oliver and his kids had other plans huh? They always play us tough. They have a lot of Athletes on that team... By the Way, James Mays aint P#$$%, He has his moments.
