Very impressive achievement just to be selected for this "watch list"- college basketballs equivalent to the Heisman trophy.
Accurate summation of his game by one of the opposing MAAC coaches.

With 345 Div 1 schools this would conservatively put him in the top 2% of players in the country, if every team had a roster of 12; 1% is more accurate, WOW helluva an honor! |

From Kieran Darcy of ESPN:
Iona's Glover makes preseason Wooden list
By Kieran Darcy
Iona forward Mike Glover has been named to the preseason watch list for the John R. Wooden Award, given each year to the best college basketball player in the country.
Fifty players make the preseason list, and Glover is the only one this year from a school in the local New York City area.
The 6-foot-7 senior had a tremendous first season at the Division I level, averaging 18.4 points and 10.1 rebounds per game for the Gaels. He was among the leaders in Division I in both field goal percentage (61.0) and double-doubles (21).

Per Guy's tweet, Mike named 1st string pre-season All-American; Machado is 3rd team.
Needham named "Player of the Year!" More bulletin board material for Mike! ;D

Sup, You're right with an asterisk.
The ratings are MID-MAJOR All Americans.

You got it, Doomie! I was do incensed about the Needham selection as Mid-Major Player of the Year, that I neglected the mid-major qualifier.  |
