Kansas coach Bill Self, whose team has won the Big 12 title for 13 consecutive seasons, said TCU — which has never won more than six games in a league season — has a chance to win the conference.
“I mean, they’re good,” he said Tuesday during the Big 12’s basketball Media Day at the Sprint Center. “They were really good last year on how they finished, and winning the NIT obviously gives them unbelievable momentum going forward.”
Self said TCU has long been considered a “sleeping giant” by coaches because of its location in prime recruiting territory, and will remain a force as long as Jamie Dixon is coach.
