With March Madness in full swing, with most of the brackets already busted, including mine, the time is now to ask the question: Who is college basketball’s player of the year for the 2015-2016 season? I’ve watched numerous games this season and have kept up with players I think should be worthy of the John R. Wooden Award for player of the year honors, and they include Oklahoma sharp-shooter Buddy Hield, Michigan State senior leader Denzel Valentine and Kentucky star point guard Tyler Ulis. Before you ask why freshman phenom Ben Simmons from LSU isn’t on the list, the answer is because he is ineligible to receive the award due to underperforming in the academic department.
