Big 12 Awards

[MakeItRain]

will be announced every 10 minutes.

So far Frank Martin has been named COY and Epke Udoh is the Newcomer of the Year.

Frank is a mild surprise, I would hope Udoh got 11 votes.

[MakeItRain]

Xavier loses to a Buffie

Mizzou has had quite a few guys in the starting line up.  If they were to have a 6th man it could be Denmon, Dixon, or Bowers, none of whom have had great numbers

[MakeItRain]

Kansas finally getting in the mix

Defensive Player of the Year   Cole Aldrich, Kansas

Udoh should have won this award

[MakeItRain]

Player of the Year   James Anderson, Oklahoma State

Thank goodness the coaches weren't blinded by media hype.  Anderson was far and away better than fat boy.

[CNS]

Is all conf team announced today as well?

[MakeItRain]

Big 12 All-Rookie Team

Ekpe Udoh, Baylor    
Alec Burks, Colorado   
Xavier Henry, Kansas   
Tommy Mason-Griffin, Oklahoma   
Avery Bradley, Texas   

[Pett]

God damnit. How in the hell did we lose out on Burks to CU?

[MakeItRain]

Ekpe Udoh, Baylor   
Cole Aldrich, Kansas   
Jacob Pullen, Kansas State   
J.T. Tiller, Missouri   
Dogus Balbay, Texas    
Bryan Davis, Texas A&M

This team is bogus, why are there 3 centers on a 6 man team?  Pullen is a mild surprise.  There is really no reason "ain't no seats" should be 1st team all conference, but he will.

[Pett]

Thank god for KU walking into a buzzsaw in Stillwater. If it wasn't for that then Bill Self wins Big XII COTY. Now....

we have bragging rights for Martin > Self for a year.

3 centers and 3 pgs.

still, it's not a bad list.  it's good to see pullen get some recognition for his defense.  his improvement as a defender has been incredible.

agreed.  I don't think Damion James should have been unanimous.

I would definitely rather have these bragging rights than 2 wins over uk.  Not even close, really

[Cire]

just goes to show how good of a coach frank is.  No way self wins the award if he loses to ksu twice.
