If only we played 7 game seasons

which is the point most of us were making

Your just arguing for arguments sake. Nobody in their right mind would truly believe Capel had any chance at COY after beating 4 hum-drums in the lower half of the conference.

I agree except that I would say Baylor is not a hum-drum (this year and the last couple) and that beating Baylor was a major upset.

The fact still remain that after 7 gmaes we were 4-3 and on a 4 game win streak while texas was 7-0 and had just givin Kansas their first conference home loss in years. Barnes after 7 games was Big 12 COY the year, just like now he is still Big 12 COY. Its a sad day but we have to give credit where credit is due.

But we were THIRD!!!!!
Just ask SBounce

i agree. I never said that capel should have have or will win it. Just said that at the moment, given the circumstances, his name should be mentioned

thats correct.

Once again, your comprehension skills are lacking. You are so caught up in reading what you want to read that you don't get the point. Many of us said that he was deserving at the time. We all knew the season wasn't over and that we hadn't faced the meat of our schedule. And a lot of us said that if we would somehow get to 500 in conference that his name should be mentioned.

I think it is actually your comprehension skills that are bad. Everyone gets what you are saying, they just think it was/is stupid. At this point, I am actually debating about whether you are stupid or just have a stupid opinion. Does this help?

The "Revisit Thread" tends to go bad quickly.

This.

really? AT THE MOMENT, the team picked to finish 11th in the conference and to at the most have a couple conference wins, was tied for third and had one 4 games in a row and just beaten baylor. I don't think it is unreasonable to think that if the season had ended then, the capels name would be brought up

Why are you arguing over the original intent of a thread you didn't post in until two weeks after it began? You weren't even involved in the original discussion, yet you're attempting to define it here (going so far as to explain what "we" were discussing, when you obviously weren't part of the discussion).

It's unreasonable to believe Capel would've been a serious contender for the award, and it's irrelevant anyway (and not the point people were making at the time... the thread clearly was speculating on what he'd need to do over the final nine games to win it).

What I was saying is it WAS and IS Rick Barnes for Coach of the Year, and there really was no discussion. He had just gone into the Phog and won.

I'm sorry, this is 2011 and not 2010 so last years Baylor team doesn't have any bearing on this years team. Drew is a craptacular coach and most every season other than last year or his first year would be considered as underachieving. So, the blind squirrel found a nut last year, it still doesn't change the fact Baylor has only beaten OU 3 times in history, and all 3 of those are within the last 2 years. It's also no secret Baylor is horrible on the road.

I don't care about Capel's COY convo by our own biased posters. I just question your logic that us beating "one of the worst Big 12 programs in history" has anything to do with us beating 2010-11 Baylor, a team that may make the tourney.

You said - "so last year's Baylor team doesn't have any bearing on this years team". Yes this is exactly what I was saying when I ignored your ridiculous appeal to Baylor's history as it regards to our victory over this year's Baylor team or Baylor's road record, or our history, as if it matters at all during actual games. History means nothing during games. The end. We beat a solid team in our home gym. Period. You disregarded this victory by bringing up the Baylor program's history in the Big 12. That is stupid.
