per Marcus:
You won't find any Gophers on preseason all-conference teams or college basketball award watch lists this year.
Failing to recognize top returning players from an 8-23 Minnesota team might not be all that surprising -- until you take a closer look.
It almost seems like a conspiracy that sophomore Jordan Murphy was overlooked as an early candidate for the Karl Malone Award, which goes to the nation's top power forward. I understand that this award, along with the Jerry West Award (top shooting guard), Julius Erving Award (top small forward) and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Award (top center) only existed since 2015.
