Is there a good reason why you posted the same thing twice?
Good for Nowell, Johnson, and Tang. Hang the banner.

Hmm posting a fairly biased ballot. Robinett is a huge kstate homer he’s actually bordering on a propagandist for them instead of just providing information for the teams he covers.
That’s what I liked about Newell covering KU. He didn’t let his coverage bias get in the way.

COY should be Bill Self but that's not a bad top 5 - Keyontae had a strong season.
Nowell too as he led the league in assists and 3rd in points -- but people won't look behind the curtain - he shot 37% from the field. That's not good.
Most importantly though, KU won the Big 12 AGAIN.
ksu tied for 3rd.

Tang will probably get it. Im ok with that.
I think this was one if selfs coaching jobs maybe ever. Ku had talent but kind of unorthodox pieces to get to fit together
Nobody is surprised to see KU finish 1st, everybody is surprised that preseason 10th place k state finished 3rd and is likely gonna be a 3 seed in the ncaa tournament

Tang found some under the radar guys that can play and made it work. Tomlin out of a juco, people were sleeping on keyonte with his heart issues. Tang made it work in a tough league

KU brought back one guy that made an All Conference team—and he made 3rd. That’s it.
ksu brought in a guy who was 1st All Conference.

Having two players from a team that finished tied-for-third on the all-conference team is laughable.

Probably.
But Johnson was 2nd in PPG and 5th in RPG.
Nowell was 3rd in PPG and 1st in APG. Also 1st in SPG.
If just conference stats, Nowell was 1st in PPG.
One of the Baylor guards needs to be on there. And Marcus Carr.
Who would be the 5th guy? Mike Miles played 13 of 18 conference games. If he's eligible i'd probably choose him over Keyontae.
The question is - where do the rest of of our guys end up?
Does Gradey make 2nd team? Does Dejuan make 3rd? What about McCullar and KJ?

Imagine having 40% of the All-Conference 1st team plus the Conference Coach of the Year and STILL finishing tied for 3rd.
I mean...LOL...

Dejuan Harris DPOY but only honorable mention. Dunno how that works.
KJ Adams most improved.
We all knew Tang would win.
Self deserved it more.

Imagine A. missing the point; but B. correctly identifying that COY is bound for better things.
I wonder if your kid can count as high as the number of seasons before Tang bails...

Can we just change the award to "coach who most exceeded expectations"

Self would never win it ever again.
He could loose his entire team from the season previous and he’d still be expected to win.
