[423Hurricane]

Well deserved and a no brainer here.

Now imagine him in 2 years.

Congratulation Rueben Bain, Jr. Thank You for picking the U !!!

 

[FuriousStyles]

The one thing they couldn’t mess up. Although I expected complete f*ckery from those idiots

 

[TexasCane90]

Well deserved… I have no doubt he will continue to push himself to keep reaching new heights

It’s been said but this is the kid that would go to Jawja or Bama and dominate

 

[Canesfan1899]

**** yes for the young man. Bain is a monster!

 

[NC_Canes_11]

Was it unanimous? Bull**** if not.

 

[Gables Cane]

Congrats to Bain. Well deserved.

It wasn’t…

That's funny. None of those other guys who got votes made even close to the dent Bain made. At some points, Bain was the best player on our entire team and was likely personally responsible for like 2 Ws.

To be fair I think you vote for several guys and they get points accordingly. Like nobody voted Conrad Hussey to be the DROY. But someone could’ve had him 3rd on their list. How many first place votes did each guy get tells the story.

It’s funny you bring that up… this scenario is one of many that’s an easy work around for tampering. They obviously talk and share what’s happening in each other’s program. It’s nothing to plant the bug… but it works both ways.

True… but I didn’t see that info on the ACC site.

Didn't know this. Thanks for the clarification. Although I actually liked Hussey as a prospect, I saw the votes and wondered WTF.
