That is Rasul Douglas, and he was not the Big 12 defensive player of the year, as voted by the media covering the league. I do not vote, if you’re curious. Douglas lost to Kansas State defensive end Jordan Willis by one vote.

Willis, to be clear, is a fine choice. I just think Douglas is a better choice.

But wait. There’s more.

Oklahoma State freshman running back Justice Hill was named the newcomer — offensive or defensive — of the year. He trailed WVU’s Justin Crawford in yards, yards per game and yards per carry and only topped Crawford 5-4 in touchdowns despite 30 more carries.

Hill is a fine choice. I think Crawford would have been a good choice. But Hill has been more consistent while Crawford did much of his damage in two games.

Bob Stoops is the Big 12 coach of the year, and Oklahoma is the first team to run the table in conference play since it went to one division and nine games back in 2010. He, too, is a fine choice. He received 15 of the 20 votes. Dana Holgorsen, who also would have been a worthy pick because his team was picked seventh in the preseason poll and finished tied for second, received the other five votes.

Stoops, by the way, coached the preseason favorite that had 10 players on the first team announced Tuesday and three on the second team.

Douglas, center Tyler Orlosky and right guard Kyle Bosch were first-team picks at their positions, and receiver Shelton Gibson was first-team as an all-purpose player. Crawford made the second team — Hill did not — and offensive lineman Adam Pankey, who’s played a lot of tackle lately, joined Crawford as a guard.

Tomorrow, the league’s coaches pick their all-conference teams as well as the offensive and defensive player of the year, the offensive and defensive newcomer of the year, the offensive and defensive linemen and the coach of the year.
