Congrats Bill Self, Yahoo Basketball Coach of the Year

Rock, Chalk Jayhawk.

So people out there might question Bill Self being named the Yahoo! Coach of the Year - because how hard is it to be a good coach when you're the defending national champs? Well, here's Selfs' winning forumla: lose all 5 starters, 80% of your scoring, return with a ridiculously young and inexperienced team, be ranked throughout most of the season, and with a win vs. Texas tomorrow will wrap up the regular season Big 12 Title.

Craig Robinson of Oregon State, and not to mention Michelle Obama's brother (I'm a Beaver Believer) was also a finalist, but OSU might not quite have made enough of a turnaround this year, but lookout next year, as the Beavs will be right there.

Mike Anderson of Mizzou was also a finalist, but being a Jayhawk I have two words: Muck Fizzou. Nuff said.

Someone who wasn't a finalist (although he's a finalist for the Iba award) was Calipari (sorry coach, forgot your first name) from Memphis. He's in the same boat as Self as far as losing most of his talent from last year and then coming back with a vengeance. I wouldn't be surprised if Memphis got a 1 seed this year. There was some talk of KU getting a 1 seed, but that's just plain sillyness, especially after we followed up that royal beat down of Mizzou with an embarrasing lost to atrocious Texas Tech. Nobody who loses to the Red Raiders deserves a 1 seed. I'd be good with a 2 or a 3 in an easy bracket.

And I'm out (and I apologize for the shitty writing - brain is still not warmed up)
