    Honestly, he's probably getting caught in the crossfire of how unlikeable his family is in general...

      I think people are undervaluing Kwadzo. If O’Rear doesn’t get hurt, we probably win the league that year, and he would of been conference player of the year.

        Let's not forget it was Kwadzo, not Afam Koch, who was the Arch Madness MVP the sweet 16 season. Played like a man possessed in St.Louis

          Washpun outplaying Morris (by a lot) helped as well. I agree with the main point though - Jesperson was underrated.

            We only got Jesperson for two years, so his impact is less noticed.

              And some of these guys (Moran, Kwadzo, O'Rear) only played 1-2 years in this decade so I don't see it as being much different

                And to be picky, the decade doesn't end this year, it's just people are too lazy to consider that 10 years (a decade) ends on a '10' year, hence 2020.
                Number of times on Sports Illustrated cover:
                Ben Jacobson coached teams = 2
                UNI teams coached by everyone ban thinks is better = 0

                  The decade begins (not ends) on a '10' year:

                  Year 1 = 2010
                  Year 2 = 2011
                  Year 3 = 2012
                  Year 4 = 2013
                  Year 5 = 2014
                  Year 6 = 2015
                  Year 7 = 2016
                  Year 8 = 2017
                  Year 9 = 2018
                  Year 10 = 2019

                    Technically he's right since there was never a Year 0, so a decade is composed of years XXX1-XX10. However, I fully support making years 1-9 an exception and then continuing the decades properly and logically from there on

                      Additionally, "the decade" is a social construct in terms of what is the official decade. 1995-2004 encompasses 10 years, so isn't that a decade, technically speaking?

                      So...this debate is completely arbitrary and open to our own agreed upon interpretations

                        What century are we in? It's only the 2000s but it's the 21st century.

                        If you score 14 seconds into the game you scored in the first minute even though we haven't had a minute roll off the clock.

                        2020 is not part of the 2010s decade.

                        Also a decade is literally 10 years it isn't specific to any 10 year period.

                        2014 ended a decade.
                        Hell today ended a decade. Tomorrow also ends a decade.

                        The 10s is its own damn decade.

                          Exactly. Thank you for proving my eventual point that its all arbitrary

                            How about a debate on biggest Panther victories of the decade?
                            Obviously the KU win was #1... But a debate can be had from there.

                              Also be wary of eliminating someone who only played 2 years.

                              AJ is only going to have 2.5 years in the 20s.

                              That's a rough precedent to set and have to follow
