Big 12 Tournament: Coach(es) of the year
Several publications throughout Big 12 territory select their own all-conference teams. The only consensus for 2010 Big 12 coach of the year is that there was no consensus.
The Associated Press, the Big 12 coaches and the Kansas City Star selected Kansas State’s Frank Martin. The Austin American-Statesman and Fort Worth Star-Telegram chose Baylor’s Scott Drew. The Dallas Morning News and San Antonio Express-News picked Texas A&M’s Mark Turgeon. The Oklahoman tabbed Bill Self of Kansas.
All four coaches have first-round byes at this week’s Big 12 Tournament at the Sprint Center in Kansas City, Mo.
“They’re all good picks,” said veteran Star sports writer Blair Kerkhoff. “A case can be made for each one of them.”
In the preseason Big 12 poll, which was voted upon by the coaches, KU was picked first and finished first; KSU was picked fourth, finished in the three-way tie for second and as the No. 2 seed in the Big 12 Tournament; Baylor was picked 10th, finished tied for second and as the No. 3 seed; Texas A&M was picked fifth, finished tied for second and as the No. 4 seed, despite a season-ending injury to guard Derrick Roland in December.
