HoopsIL.com has their Preseason awards, part I--

Top Shooter- this one I am a little puzzled by. They pick a kid who has never taken a shot yet for ISU, Chamberlain Oguchi.
His stats his junior year at Oregon were not pretty--
52 for 166 (.313) overall, and 29-112 (.259) from three. Those numbers are absolutely horrible for a "shooting guard", but his Pac-10 Conference stats were even worse! In conference he shot 25-83 (.301) overall, and 13-57 (.228 ) from three.

Top defender went to Dodie Dunson, who also has never played yet.--
Top Defender: Dodie Dunson’s combination of strength, quickness, speed, and IQ help him to lock down defenders. When at Iowa State, Dunson was often assigned to the opponents best defender and did a very good job holding Big XII stars under their averages. He should be even better in the Valley.

I have no idea where they come up with this stuff. I am as excited as any Saluki fan for this years recruiting class but to have someone listed as top playmaker (Dillard) who has never played a minute of DI hoops seems crazy. If he is the top playmaker in Illinois. SIU will be a lot better than anyone is anticipating.

Also Mullins is the best defender in the state.
 
Saluki762-- I haven't heard anything lately... What's the status of Mullins' injury? Is he able to practice or play?
 
Well that's good for Mullins. As a Bradley fan, I have to both hate and respect the guy. :D

Hate to see any athlete losing time to injury, so hope he can put that all behind him.

However there were several comments about how he simply couldn't hit a shot, and in one 3-pt contest with nobody guarding him, he hit only 3 of 15 attempts.

True but Mullins has never really been much of a 3pt shooter...

If he's shooting a lot of them then they're in more trouble than they thought
