USA Today likes Terrence Jones, snubs Anthony Davis

USA Today released its college basketball preview for the upcoming season, and Kentucky’s Terrence Jones is on the cover of the local print edition. Jones was named to the paper’s All-SEC first team and he’s ranked as the best player in the conference. Freshman point guard Marquis Teague was named second team All-SEC.

Anthony Davis is notably absent. And that’s a load of bull manure. We demand a re-print.

USA Today First Team All-SEC

Kenny Boynton, Florida
John Jenkins, Vanderbilt
Jeffery Taylor, Vanderbilt
Terrence Jones, Kentucky
JaMychal Green, Alabama

USA Today Second Team All-SEC

Marquis Teague, Kentucky
Dee Bost, Mississippi State
Tony Mitchell, Alabama
Arnett Moultrie, Mississippi State
Festus Ezeli, Vanderbilt

  3. Cal Purnell here Says:

    Is Laurie Morgan gonna sing at Big Blue Madness?

  4. HillbillyInBC Says:

    Just think what a great team we could be if only we had Arnett Moultrie instead of Anthony Davis.

  5. Warden Says:

    How can they leave Anthony Davis & Michael Kidd-Gilchrist off? They will be a superstars this season.

  6. Jenna Says:

    Roll Tide. Yeahhhhhh! uh HUH uh HUH uh HUH!

  7. Eatin' Crow Says:

    Someone is gonna be eating crow at the other end of the season.

  8. The Nibbler Says:

    More shocked that Doron isn’t 2nd team.

  9. NBA league pass Says:

    8) I agree, a lot of omissions on this list. Something tells me that Cal thrives on this kind of stuff and it will only help us in the long run.

  10. Joker's mom Says:

    In March the lists will be much different. Why isn’t my son on this list? Rumor has it that AZ is enquiring about my son. Pay up Mitch or you will lose him!

  11. catscatscats Says:

    5, 8, 9- lets make a list of the conference’s best players but only take names from one team!

  12. PUNT U Says:

    WHAAAAATTTTT??? USA Today is a JOKE!!!!

  13. Alex Says:

    It sucks that UK has so many talented players that they all cant get these kind of recognitions. I mean if they were really naming the top players pre-season they would have Davis, Lamb, Gilchrist, and Miller. I know they cant do this but those are the top players in the conference

  14. Alex Says:

    By the way this is complete bullshit. Boynton is not a first team player, Taylor is not a first team player. Darius Miller is really the biggest snub here. Anyone that can start on UK’s team the last 3 years is a first team any conference.

  16. UNC is Gay! Says:

    All I can say is Motivation!!

  17. CliffFrankLou Says:

    LOL–that’s OK. Let them overlook the talent on this team. They may have to make some revisions at year’s end.

  18. pioneer Says:

    USA Today is about as relevent as Indiana basketball

  19. bmt22033 Says:

    This list speaks volumes about the credibility of college basketball opinion pieces from USA Today.

  20. Real Cats Fan Says:

    Gee, I guess that means we might as well just hand the trophy over to Vandy! Why even play the games? DUH!

  21. That Cat Says:

    This is a bad bad list.

    In addition to all the UK snubs how does Brad Beal get no mention? Considering this league as a whole, over half the list should be freshmen this season. 4/10th of the list should be Kentucky. Teague is probably regarded as the “weakest” of the Davis/Gilchrist/Teague trio. Looking at this list alone one would think Vandy was the unmatched favorite to win the conference what with their 3 players in the two teams.

  22. Cat fan Says:

    When these cats prove they can Play as a team and dominate then let the accolades roll in. I myself am growing tired of how great these freshmen are according to scouts… Prove it! The NBA is bleeding us dry every year. Terrence jones, thanks, you deserve the glory… Now be a leader. Bring home the title.
