The AP...ASSOCIATED PRESS....named their 1st Team All-Americans Monday Afternoon.......nothing surprises the BLUEDUDE on this list...GRAND SLAM AP

The AP had probably an easier descisoin than most years of who was getting the VOTES on the 1st Team All-American List....as it was a down year talent wise in College BAsketball....The BLUEDUDE is saying there is talent everywhere....just not a lot of guys seperating themselves from the PACK.
