Ten members of the Big 12 started this basketball season. Three remain (and really, only one remains, but I’ll be damned if I’m not pumped up about a shot at another NIT title).
Let’s talk about those three.
Texas Tech: I got my Dave Campbell’s Texas Basketball magazine in the mail last fall. The cover art was a picture of Chris Beard, and there was a nice feature about the program he was building at Tech.
I thought that was great, and all, and yet I still fully expected the Red Raiders to get a 7-seed and be bounced in the first weekend.
