Dick Vitale: Halfway through the season, time to reflect and look into the future

With conference play well underway, it is time to reveal my midseason all-Rolls Royce squads.

When I did my preseason All-America clubs, the first team was easy to select. The midseason initial team had a few possibilities.

Leading the way is Purdue big man Zach Edey, who has had a terrific campaign as a scorer, Windex man on the glass and shot blocker.

My preseason squads did not include freshmen, as I wanted to let them get on the court and see how they performed. My top diaper dandy so far is Brandon Miller of Alabama.

Here are my four midseason teams:
