If GW can shock the world and finish to 4, there’s a legitimate possibility that Bishop wins player of the year, Edwards wins rookie of the year, Adams wins most improved, and Caputo wins coach of the year. But that’s truly a best case scenario with a lot of basketball yet to be played.

Best freshman recruit (yeah I know he was technically a transfer) by a first-year coach since Val Brown and Chris Monroe by Penders (on the back of Jarvis's success).
^^^^
[EDIT: Nevermind, Val and Chris came in Penders’ second year (I always think of that last Shawnta season as a Jarvis year). So best freshman recruit since Alvin Pearsall with Jarvis??? Before that, it was Mike Brown and Gimelstob.]

Good point.
Long way to catch Chris Monroe, of course. But Chris is actually around to impart some things Max, who already is a good player.
Max is really turning out to be an excellent recruit. If CC's recruits are like this and we got some in frontcourt, too, we definitely got the right guy to get GW out of its basketball doldrums.
One thing especially, is Max's nose for the ball and rebounding. That really helped Saturday and has
helped throughout the season.

I can see the case for POY being mostly top of the standings (the way MVP voters lean heavily to the top teams) but shouldn't the Rookie of the Year and the MIP just be the best/most improved respectively?
GW was picked 2nd to last by the writers/coaches so if CC finishes top 4 he's def got a very good shot. CC would be our 2nd ever Coach of the Year winner in the 45 year history of the league (Hobbs, 2006)
Martelli won the award 4 times. He should be on the sidelines Wed night, deserved to go out on his own terms like Mike Brey.
