Brockington named Big 12 Newcomer of the Year, Hunter wins Freshman of the Year

Nice to see them both recognized. I still think TJ should have been the coach of the year.
How is Scott Drew coach of the year? Wouldn’t have even been in my top 3!!
Hunter snubbed too - how is he not at least honorable mention?

I guess I would have chosen TJ obviously but I understand Drew. He lost four starters from a national title team and had injuries and still won the best toughest league in the country. Not sure why some are shocked.
I don’t get anyone saying the Tech coach should have won. He did fine but those were all Beard players and he knows the program already.

We basically have two returnees that you can build around. (If IB returns) Hope TJ an find the mojo in the portal again.
So isu had two players on all 1st, 2nd, 3rd and HM teams - is that the lowest number of players in the conference?
Overall record wise yeah but in conference...I don't know. Likely needed like a 3rd place finish or something.
Was it all Beard's players? I've heard he only had 1 or 2 of Beard's players.
Yeah. It would have made sense. But we were 7-11 and the 6th seed.
Honestly doesn't matter. I don't think he did a better job than Drew. He was an assistant there and knows the program in and out. Drew reloading, coupled with injuries and still winning the league is impressive. And I say that not really liking Drew at all.
Hunter is freshman of the year over Sochan but Sochan somehow gets HM all big 12 and Hunter doesn’t? That literally makes no sense.
Agree.
I understand the urge the homer-urge to give it to Otz, but the award tends to focus on in-conference performance ... and let's admit it, any halfway competent coach could improve on 0-18.
Lost Mitchell, Butler, Teague and Vital.
Lost Tchatchoua for the year and won the league.
Meh. He isn't reloading like Drew did. Honestly not that difficult to understand. I choose Drew. You don't. Move on.
