BIG 12

Best Town: Austin (8).

Comment: "Contrary to popular belief, being on the road is not always a vacation, but when I go to Austin, I feel like it is. Good places to eat. Live music if you want. You find time to have a little fun while you're there."

Also receiving votes: Boulder, Lawrence.

Worst Town: Waco (9).

Comment: "One time, a Baylor assistant football coach got arrested for urinating on the bar at Scruffy Murphy's. That was the century's high-water mark for nightlife excitement."

Also receiving votes: Ames, Manhattan.

Best Basketball Town: Lawrence (10).

Comment: "Lawrence is clearly the class of the Big 12 in hoops, the only one to win an NCAA title since the league was formed. Before ku won as a Big Eight team in 1988, the last titles belonged to Kansas in 1952 and Oklahoma State, twice in the 1940s when, I believe, they were playing three-on-three at each end, no crossing midcourt. As for Allen Fieldhouse, it's like a museum, maybe one that is haunted. I always think a famous dead guy is going reach out and shake my hand."

Also receiving votes: None. Lawrence was the lone unanimous pick in the entire survey.

Worst Basketball Town: Boulder (11).

Comment: "There are so many great things to do in Boulder during the winter. Watching college basketball doesn't make the list."

Also receiving votes: Lincoln.



So he loves Vista but hates the town? So which is it Pat?

That wasn't his stuff. It was a survey of beat writers.

Obviously, the only reaz lowrentz got the votes was due to the recent NC, not the shootings, crapty traffic, etc that it's better known for.

He's trying to redeem himself:

Big 12

Coach of the year: Frank Martin, Kansas State. He has competition from Baylor's Scott Drew and Texas A&M's Mark Turgeon, but who among us expected the Wildcats to win 24 regular-season games and lock up the No. 2 seed in the Big 12 tourney? (If you're raising your hand, put it back down. You're lying.)

Nah.  Most males in Lawrence, maybe, and I'm sure you would know.

Lets try to not turn every thread into a fight between 12 year old boys. Deal?

I take it you FP's are on board with bitches like Louise's West coming on to this board to bag on all things K-State?  No wonder there's been a mass flight away from this estrogen-laced haven.
