Gee McGhee heard the question in various forms several times about whether he could be on the Southern Conference all-freshman team, or even, freshman of the year.

“It would be an honor to get the freshman of the year award, but if not, it’s not [going to] stop me from grinding – just thank God and move on!” he wrote the social media site.

“People have been asking if I’m in the race and blah, blah, blah, but I’ve been having great games lately,” McGhee said before practice Wednesday. “I don’t know how [voting] goes, but if I don’t get it, I’m going to keep working, stay humble and keep after it.
