You guys are completely forgetting about Jackson the juco pg. kid can flat out play and drill the 3. He's also a heck of a defensive player.

Just needs to be patient. Could learn a lot from Georges. Measure up your guy, quick first step, and then use your body to hold the advantage you get. He's very talented, just needs to keep control.
Next year's team will.....
1. have lower expectations to start the season
2. play better defense
3. play not quite as a good on offense
4. by the end of the season people will say that they overachieved

...have depth. We'll finally be able to foul on the inside instead of giving up easy baskets. May have to keep Malou out of foul trouble but the rest can hack away.
His defense was horrible...and has been most of the season. Good on offense, but a liability on D.

Burton zero rebounds tonight with extended minutes. He is offensively gifted, but might be too undisciplined to harness it.
Burton will never catch Niang in decision making. He can be a nice player for us, but it won't be fair to Burton to expect him to fill Niang's role.
Maybe with our outside shooters next year, things will really open up for Burton, Bowie and Malou even though they probably won't be as skilled as Niang.
Also, depth could help us a little next year on the defensive end. Rebounding scares me still, since we will probably be running with some pretty small line ups.
Getting a true post grad transfer would be a game changer though.

Whats next years preseason Big 12, assuming Monte comes back?

1. KU
2. WV
3. Baylor
4. Texas
5. ISU
6. OU
7. Tech
8. KSU
9. OSU
10. TCU

I think next year's team will be more fun to watch. Not because they'll need better in any facet, but just because the expectations won't be there. Instead of being disappointed in 8 point conference wins, I'm excited to just need happy to win.
Really tough to say. I think the bottom of the league will be better.
For sure
1. KU
2. WVU
Then maybe
3. Texas
4. Baylor
5. Iowa State
6. OU
7. OSU
8. Tech
9. KSU
10. TCU
I would bet that people are going to vote us lower than we end up. I'll guess you are right about 5th, and I'd be freaking thrilled with that.
Baylor lost Medford, Prince, Gaithers, and one more..TX lost Ibeh, holland, Ridley, Felix, ( and probably more), not sure either of those teams are any better off than us....
I think league will be tougher than people think. We certainly will have the best coaches of any conference as well.
That's going to be the next thing that hits me. The end of basketball season is like taking a first step into a vast desert of suck.
