Three Golden Eagles Named To All-Big East Men’s Basketball Teams

The Big East loves announcing the postseason awards for men’s basketball in drips and drabs because this results in repeated media attention as each successive press release comes out. With three Marquette players amongst the 11 men honored on the First and Second Teams, I am more than happy to help and talk to you about the All-Conference Teams.

Junior point guard Tyler Kolek is one of the six players on the All-Big East First Team, while junior forward/center Oso Ighodaro and sophomore guard Kam Jones are on the Second Team. Kolek is one of two unanimous players on the First Team along with Providence’s Bryce Hopkins, and thus it is safe to say that one of those two men will be announced as Player of the Year later this week.
