Brandon Clarke deserves more Player of the Year talk

Zion Williamson is going to be the Player of the Year. Perhaps someone else will win it, but the way you read many of the national writers, you’d be hard pressed to think there is anyone else that has a legitimate shot.

That point is rather unfortunate, because while writers whip themselves up into a salivating frenzy to extoll the endless virtues of Zion the god, the best basketball player to ever exist in college basketball, the Zags’ Brandon Clarke, a player having an absolutely phenomenal year, is somehow quiet, despite the fact he is one of the nation’s most prolific shot blockers and can put up a highlight reel dunk with the rest of ‘em.
