All Solid Gold team

SPECIAL TO ESPN.COM

April 4, 2007

Now that the season is over, it is time to look ahead. I know that a number of stars will leave the college hardwood and head for the green being offered by the NBA.

Yes, but it would be nice to dream. If everyone with eligibility came back, we would have amazing talent on our All-Solid Gold teams. This list will clearly change as a number of members will leave early for the pros.

For now, here are my top five All-Solid Gold teams as I sit here dreaming of what next year could be if everyone stayed and graced us with their extraordinary presence.

FIRST TEAM

C-Greg Oden, Ohio State
F-Kevin Durant, Texas
F-Tyler Hansbrough, North Carolina
G-Arron Afflalo, UCLA
G-Chris Lofton, Tennessee

SECOND TEAM

C-Roy Hibbert, Georgetown
F-Joakim Noah, Florida
F-Jeff Green, Georgetown
G-Sean Singletary, Virginia
G-Drew Neitzel, Michigan State

THIRD TEAM

F-Brandan Wright, North Carolina
F-Brandon Rush, Kansas
G-Dominic James, Marquette
G-Mike Conley, Ohio State

FOURTH TEAM

F-Corey Brewer, Florida
G-Taurean Green, Florida
G-Chris Douglas-Roberts, Memphis
