In his post-game press conference, Zeigler declared, “Dalton Knecht is the best player in the country.” “It doesn’t matter what other people think. The best player in the nation is him.” As one of the four unanimous first-team All-Americans, Knecht finished first. During his one season there, he fell short of Tennessee’s single-season scoring record by 28 points.
