Nice honor for Brandon. I hope he has a great season & breaks the SI cover jinx!

I didn't realize that there were only four versions. That is a great honor.

1.

SI highlights his readiness to lead the team as he returns for his senior season. Brandon is the first Syracuse player to appear on the cover since Wesley Johnson on March 21, 2010.

There is no west coast version?

they couldn't decide which joke of a pac-12 team to put on the cover this year...

(I fully understand UCLA's ranked 10, relax)

Good for Brandon. I hate the regional cover. Pick one cover and stop bandering to multiple groups of people.

DANG IT! I thought I had OE for a second...

but the 2011 and 2012 collage of march madness preview had 1 of the boeheim face guys (2012) and otto (2011), so no cuse PLAYER since wes on that 2010 version (as a regional cover and part of the collage on the other regionals.)

They couldn't find anyone on the UCLA roster that was, in fact, eligible.

You do mean to say "pandering" don't you? Bander is French slang for an erection.
