Burke had a great year. The kid is awesome. I'm very confident his college career will eclipse Taylors when all is said and done.
But that all being said, he just wasn't as good as Taylor was even when their stats are nearly identical. And that's even considering that defensively they are not that far away from one another.
The main reason Taylor was still the better player, when only looking at this year, is that Taylor managed his team with much more effectiveness and impact. He managed the flow of the whole game more often than not. He had a bigger impact on his team and how they played. Not that Burke wasn't important to UofM's season.. just not quite as important as Taylor was to wisconsin's.
It's entirely reasonable that Taylor got the PG spot on the all big ten team. It's not like Burke doesn't have a good case or that you would have to be a UofM slappy to think he should get it.. just IMO (and most big ten coaches) Taylor gets the slight nod (though you might be a UofM slappy to say "you're on drugs" to someone that thinks it's reasonable for Taylor to get the nod).Rashean Mathis: "I'm an egg guy.

Jordan Taylor, as you would expect with him being a senior and all, is much better at this point at taking care of the basketball. Otherwise though, the stats across the board are as even as it gets. And one's a true freshman, and the other is a senior.
I really don't care about the Burke vs Taylor head to head argument by the way. Taylor's a fine player, and he has been outstanding the last 2 seasons. But safe to say, I think most Michigan fans (including myself) are absolutely ecstatic about the play of Burke and wouldn't trade him for anybody. Anybody.AAL: KhaDarel Hodges
