Adams is awesome baby, with a capital ‘A’

Swaggy Jay Adams is pretty good in the A-10, according to Dick Vitale.

Dipsy doo dunkaroo! Jaylen Adams is a Diaper Dandy baby!

Resident college basketball blowhard Dick Vitale stopped thinking about Duke for a minute or two and handed out some season-end awards.

For what it’s worth, Dickie gave Diaper Dandy of the Year in the Atlantic 10 to SBU’s Adams. (For those unfamiliar with Vitale parlance, Diaper Dandy means talented freshman.)

It’s highly unlikely Dick has seen Adams play this season, but it’s a nice honor nonetheless for Swaggy Jay, who has been out with a thumb injury.

Speaking of the thumb, CBS college basketball pundit Gary Parrish tweeted that Swag will likely be back in time for the start of the A-10 tourney. Clearly, Parrish has a source – or a source of a source – within the SBU athletic department.

SBU’s own Shannon Shepherd (with an E) first brought this good news to our attention. Thank you Shannon!
