My focus is shifting to basketball thanks to the football team. Where do you see this team on selection Sunday? I think our guards will carry us early on, I am really excited about Keshon Gilbert and Curtis Jones along with Lipsey hopefully developing more offensively.

Towards the end of the year I think guys like Omaha and Milan will be a huge part of our success.

It's going to be interesting to see how well the team gels early. We have some sharp shooters but I think people are expecting a bit too much offense from Omaha. Milan will surprise a bunch of people though if he shows out like he as this summer.

I think we’ll be pretty good and be around .500 in conference and will have higher hopes for the Tourney than our season record and seed will indicate.

4-6 seed. T.J. finally has a loaded roster and he always out performs expectations. Basketball season is going to be exciting.

The expectation should be make the tournament. A 4-6 seed would be fantastic. We have reloaded on talent but will still be dependent on a lot of young/new contributors outside of Tamin and Tre K.

If we get good guard play and have a legit rim protector we are going to be pretty tough. No worse than 7-10
 
I feel like we'll be about even to last year but with a way higher upside. Need to see the schedule for deeper predictions but I'm super optimistic on a lot of dudes.

I'll bet the farm on Tre and Ward being awesome this year, especially Tre

I'll go 5th in the Big 12, 6 seed again. Behind Kansas, Houston, Kansas State, and Baylor. Texas has some good starters but I don't like their bench and TCU will probably just be what they always are under Dixon. Solid middle of the pack team in the best conference in America

I think Lipsey, Gilbert, and King will be the clear leaders and most consistent guys with big games from Jones, Milan, and Pav here and there. A ton more options on offense if one or two players are cold, unlike after Grill went out last year and we were 100% dependent on Gabe and Holmes both being on.

Omaha will play more than he did in the Bahamas and be a solid rebounder and defender with complimentary scoring.

5-8 seed with a nice run in the tourney and the entire guard court back for 2024-25 for a better run.

Lipsey and King are probably the two I’m most excited about, not including the freshmen.

Couldn’t believe Lipsey was a freshman last year with how comfortable he was running the point

To clarify, is this a rough start in conference or overall.

Because the teams we got in the noncon outside of the Orlando Event are pretty yikes

Sorry, meant conference. The non-con schedule this year doesn't do much for me.
Just such an adjustment to the B12 physicality.

I'd say 5-7 seed. slower start than the last couple years and rising towards the end of the year rather than trying to just survive conference season

That's a pretty weak non con...how did they decide who we play once or twice in conference....looks pretty random
