Brent Yarina of the Big Ten Network make his all Big Ten picks and doesn't pick Kalin Lucas as Player of the Year. He chose Evan Turner of Ohio State, Lucas was his runner up. Lucas was first team all Big Ten and Goran Suton made second team. He gave defensive player of the year to Damian Johnson of Minnesota and the runner up to Chris Kramer of Purdue. Travis Walton made honorable mention.

It seems Yarina has a definite bias against MSU. Penn State had two first team players. How can Kalin Lucas not be Big Ten Player of the Year after Michigan State took the Big Ten by a wide margin? Especially since he apparently didn't have any top support considering only one other Spartan made Yarina's top three teams. If you look at what Walton was able to accomplish in regards to shutting down the Big Ten's top players, he is the Defensive POTY hands down.
