Dixon after being picked higher than TCU football, ‘Gary giving me a hard time’

TCU fans ought to remember the year 2017.

That’s when their basketball team was picked higher in a preseason poll than their football team.

Last week, the league coaches predicted Jamie Dixon’s basketball team to finish third in the upcoming season. This summer, Gary Patterson’s football team was tabbed fifth by the writers.

Asked for his reaction Tuesday at Big 12 Media Day, Dixon could only shake his head and smile.

“Gary was giving me a hard time at some points, but I think he’s getting the last laugh right now,” he said.
