Nebrasketball: Cam Mack Earns Big Ten Media Honorable Mention

Obviously the Huskers were few and far between in conference honors this season, but Cam Mack did at least make one appearance for Nebraska.

NCAA Basketball: Michigan State at Nebraska Bruce Thorson-USA TODAY Sports

While the Nebraska Cornhuskers had just as lackluster showing in the final coaches and media balloting to end the season as they did performances on the court, one small glimmer of note is Cam Mack finished as honorable mention per media. As of now Mack is still suspended for tomorrow’s game versus Indiana in the Big Ten Tournament. The complete ballot results for the rest of the conference are below.
