ESPN is releasing their Top 25 College players, 5 each day this week, and Brooke checked in at #20: Brooke McCarty, Texas, G, 5-foot-4, senior 2016-17: 14.1 PPG, 3.6 APG, 43.0 3-point field goal percentage Officially, McCarty is the reigning Big 12 player of the year and the first Longhorn ever to win that award. Unofficially, the shortest player in our rankings might well be the best inch-for-inch player in the land. There is an intangible quality to what makes her special, an ease of manner at full speed that catches the eye. But she also brings ample tangible statistical evidence of maturing into one of the most efficient lead guards in the country. -- Graham Hays Ariel made it last season but, if she's eligible, my money would be on Joyner if another Longhorn is on the list.
Quite surprising that we never had anyone win POY, between Edwina Brown, Stacey Stephens, and Tiffany Jackson.
