The Naismith Mid-Season List of 30 players was released today and they got it right.

P.O.Y. WATCH

Jeff Goodman breaks down the
latest on college basketball’s
Player of the Year race.

And I’m not saying that because I had 28 identical names on my ballot (and the other two, BC’s Reggie Jackson and Vandy’s Jeffery Taylor, are clearly debatable).

If I had a do-over, I’d have Wisconsin’s Jordan Taylor on the list ahead of both of them – and the two guys on the list that I didn’t have (Alec Burks and Malcolm Delaney).

Here’s the Naismith Top 30 Mid-Season List:

Alec Burks, Colorado
Malcolm Delaney, Virginia Tech
Marcus Denmon, Missouri
Kenneth Faried, Morehead State
Jimmer Fredette, BYU
Austin Freeman, Georgetown
Jordan Hamilton, Texas
Ben Hansbrough, Notre Dame
Tu Holloway, Xavier
Rick Jackson, Syracuse
Charles Jenkins, Hofstra
JaJuan Johnson, Purdue
Terrence Jones, Kentucky
Kawhi Leonard, San Diego State
Jon Leuer, Wisconsin
Demetri McCamey, Illinois
Mickey McConnell, Saint Mary’s
E’Twaun Moore, Purdue
Marcus Morris, Kansas
Kyle Singler, Duke
