Big 12 Tourney Must See Attractions
10. Bob Huggins: The Kansas State coach, is soft-spoken off the court - but a big presence on the hardwood.
9. Iowa State fans: The Big 12's heartiest supporters are a delight, whether at the arena cheering or at the Bricktown's Tap-werks.
8. Acie Law IV: Maybe the best clutch player we will ever see.
7. Oklahoma State spirit squads: Not because of how they look, but for how they always are a presence during timeouts and never take away from the atmosphere.
6. Kim Mulkey: The Baylor women's coach is a pistol who lives an dies with every shot, every whistle, every perceived slight by an opponent. She will wear you thin, but give her this: She makes it a lot of fun.
5. Mizzou's pep band: Their music is the tournament anthem.
4. Lll' Red: Nebraska's inflatable mascot is an abomination on the football field, but in a basketball arena the laughs begin. His bouncing tricks - including on his head- make for high times at the tournament.
3. Courtney Paris: The Oklahoma superstar produces prodigious numbers and her personality is even more infectious.
2. Kevin Durant: When you see him play, you realize what he needs most is a new address, in an NBA city.
1. Bob Knight: No one in American sport ever has been so darned interesting. What he says, his acts are fascinating and the way he coaches is marvelous. You cannot take your eyes away.
This is a great conference.
