F Michael Beasley, Kansas State, 6-10/235, Fr.

High School: Fitchburg (Mass.) Notre Dame Prep
The Numbers: 26.2 ppg, 12.4 rpg, 1.6 bpg, 1.3 spg, 53.2 FG%
The Buzz: Beasley ranks third in the nation in scoring and first in rebounding, but his gaudy stats only tell half the story of his massive impact. Kansas State's remarkable success explains the rest. Beasley led K-State to its first win at home over rival Kansas in 24 years, breaking one of the longest streaks in college basketball. Beasley also led the Wildcats to their first NCAA Tournament appearance since 1996 and their first tourney win since 1988.

That Beasley fellow is a nice player. 
"Kids used to hit him and stab him with pencils," says Harley Bennett, Jason's father. "Finally I told him he had to stick up for himself. Jason is not a violent person. One day he hit one of the kids back and got suspended."

I think Mike deserved POY, but Rivals voting him POY is kinda self-serving.  They picked Mike as the the #1 ranked member of the 2007 class, when others did not.  It makes them look pretty good to have him as POY.

At one point Mike wasn't even listed on the crapioka ESPN 150 or w/e

Then when they added him they put him at an embarrassingly low 6th or something
