LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) Texas Tech coach Tubby Smith figures the only way his Red Raiders can go is up.
After two straight losing seasons - the only two in Smith's 24-year career - the third-year coach said he wants his team to finish in the top half of the Big 12 and to play in a post-season tournament.
The biggest challenge is getting his players to believe they can turn around the program.
''When you've struggled so long to win, like we have at Texas Tech, just changing the mindset and culture,'' Smith said.
