The players know what's going on, they're some of the biggest fans in college basketball. So here at the Wooden Watch, we decided to present them with a secret ballot.
The Watch polled the 20 players on the late-season list of Wooden Award candidates to see who they would vote for as national player of the year. (To avoid a list of 20 players with one vote each, players were instructed that they could not vote for themselves.)
Like any national election, it's difficult to get 100 percent participation.
