    The school has let him return to practice, but he is still suspended from playing in games.

    If he returns within about 5 games, I still expect him to be an All-American.

    Recent reports have been saying it wasn’t an altercation. It was his girlfriend scared him in the dark and he hit her "as a reflex". Not sure I believe it, but her dad spoke out and said it was an accident.

    Is he at full health? I guess he might be, considering he did well in their pre-season games, but I think it might be really tough for him to make the All-American 1st team coming off of ACL surgery. Still think he is an All-American, just do not know about 1st team. These are my predictions:

    1st Team

    F Harrison Barnes

    F Kyle Singler (NPOY)

    F/C Jared Sullinger

    G Nolan Smith

    G Jimmer Freddette

    2nd Team:

    G Jacob Pullen

    F Marcus Morris

    G Austin Freeman

    G Shelvin Mack

    F/C Trey Thompkins

    3rd Team:

    G Kalin Lucas

    G Demetri McCamey

    F Kenneth Faried

    G E’Twaun Moore

    F Chandler Parsons

    Honorable Mention:

    F Trey Thompkins

    G Brandon Knight

    F Jon Leuer

    G Kyrie Irving

    F Derrick Williams

     

    I do like your list, think it is solid, but for some reason I have a feeling that some of those players might not progress as much as others. Kemba Walker is a player I like a great deal, but I see UCONN maybe having some issues. I find Pre-Season All-American lists are a gamble, you are pretty much either betting that a person will maintain production or increase it, and that is I guess the guys I put stock in. There are tons of guys who can be All-Americans, but after seeing that the AP went 0-5 last year on their choices, I felt like I should gamble, and I think the two freshman I am gambling on are worth the risk. I think Barnes will kill it from day one and Sullinger will be too much for people to stop. But either way, it is a definite gamble, and I would not be surprised if a lot of names not on these lists end up there at the end of the year.
