The Southeastern Conference announced its 2009-10 All-SEC Basketball teams on Tuesday morning and the awards had a decidedly Kentucky flavor.

The Wildcats placed three players on the All-SEC First Team and also took home the SEC Player of the Year and SEC Freshman of the Year awards. Superstar freshman John Wall was named Player of the Year and star center DeMarcus Cousins was named the Freshman of the Year.

In all, the Wildcats had four players receiving awards from the league. That number fell one short of Vanderbilt's total of five players honored. Commodores' head coach Gene Stallings also took home the SEC Coach of the Year award.

Vanderbilt's John Jenkins was named the SEC Sixth Man of the Year, and Mississippi State's Jarvis Varnado was unanimously selected as the SEC Defensive Player of the Year.

Is this site really promoting itself as the site for everything SEC? The coach of the year is Vanderbilt's Kevin Stallings! Gene Stallings was Alabama's football coach from 1990 to 1996.
