Babb got screwed out of all-defensive team

Whoops, didn't see the larger thread already out there. Feel free to merge/delete

How could Chris Babb be left off the All Defensive Team?

**ca4cy** · 03-04-2012, 06:17 PM

In what warped existence is Chris Babb not one of the best five defenders in the B12? That's a helluva snub!

Congrats to Fred. That shows the clout he already has with his peers.

The only explanation I've came up with is that he didn't accrue the statistics. Doesn't really block shots, and doesn't particularly make steals (although he pokes the ball free a lot and then somebody else is credited with the steal...). If you go strait of the statistics, it makes sense. But these were coaches votes. You would think that they would know what players gave them problems, as they had to face every team twice.

If they dug deeper and looked at the stats of the guys he guarded, he would have been included without question.

Snub of babb = dumb.

This is karma for Missouri helping get LE fired. Had LE stuck around, Hoiberg is likely in the NBA front office still, and Haith gets COY. Funny how things work out. Good riddance MU.

The Missouri butt-hurt on twitter is amazingly awesome. Haha

You don't give your boss your two weeks notice, and then ***** you didn't get employee of the month. The conference is going to promote the individuals who will be around the years following. Not to mention these were Anderson's players.

Thank you big12 coaches for voting for the two good coaches in our league.

CyBer · 03-04-2012, 09:20 PM

I've been responding to everyone complaining of Haith not being C.O.Y. with "HAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHA" let's see what they do.

**nj829** · 03-04-2012, 09:23 PM

I would guess Self, Haith, Kruger, and Martin voted for Fred

Self received votes from Billy G, Drew, Barnes, Fred

Leaving Ford and A&M to vote for haith (can't think of the name!) Even then you may have had those 2 split between Fred and Bill. After ISU blasted A&M twice, I could see CFH getting their vote.

Giggles (former KXNO talking head) . . . now blabbing on the east coast SHOULD BE reminded . . he was wrong.

Eat your heart out Giggles!

You should read Tiger Board. (Try to anyway.) They keep saying how ****** of a conference we are and the institutions here are low class. Really? Was that the case 8 months ago when they weren't considered for anything?

Fred deserved this just like Bill did. ISU finished 6 spots higher than projected and MU finished 2 spots ahead. Plus like you said, he used Anderson's players. When they hired him they had no respect for the man, they hated him. Now they praise him like he's a god. I wish they would just leave, they do nothing for this conference but trash talk it. I hope we see them in the tourney and give them a nice ol **** burger!

I think from the Missouri posters here you would have realized having a rational discussion with a MU fan is like having a discussion about Global Warming with a baby. One of you is going to feel like an idiot and one of you is going to end up crying.
