The Big Ten came out with the all conference teams on Monday, and 6 Badgers were honored. I meant to blog this when the list came out, but the internet in my house works about as well as you can expect when you've got one router supporting the porn habits of six college guys. Sorry for the delay, but here's the complete list:
FIRST TEAM
Nik Stauskas, Michigan (POY)
Roy Devyn Marble, Iowa
Gary Harris, Michigan State
Terran Petteway, Nebraska
Frank Kaminsky, Wisconsin
*No word yet on how getting the 1st team honor will affect The Moose's All-Bro status
SECOND TEAM
Yogi Ferrell, Indiana
Caris LeVert, Michigan
Adreian Payne, Michigan State
D.J. Newbill, Penn State
Sam Dekker, Wisconsin
THIRD TEAM
Noah Vonleh, Indiana
Aaron White, Iowa
Aaron Craft, Ohio State
LaQuinton Ross, Ohio State
Tim Frazier, Penn State
HONORABLE MENTION
Rayvonte Rice, Illinois
Glenn Robinson III, Michigan

Shavon Shields, Nebraska
Drew Crawford, Northwestern
A.J. Hammons, Purdue
Ben Brust, Wisconsin
ALL-FRESHMAN TEAM
Kendrick Nunn, Illinois
Noah Vonleh, Indiana

ALL-DEFENSIVE TEAM
Aaron Craft, Ohio State (Def POY)
Gary Harris, Michigan State
Shannon Scott, Ohio State
A.J. Hammons, Purdue

Can't really complain if you're a Wisconsin fan. Almost everybody in the rotation came up with some kind of all-conference recognition, which serves as an indicator of where this program is going. I don't hate that we'll have 5 of these 6 guys back next year either - especially with a guy like Bronson Koenig waiting for his turn in the spotlight.
But that's not what's important right now. The Badgers leave tomorrow for Indianapolis to play the winner of Minnesota/Penn State on Friday. And if you don't understand how postseason basketball works, every game from here on out is win-or-go-home. There's hardware on the line at all times.
