Thought you guys would be interested, nothing ground breaking, but I think we will be sneaky good. Prefer that to coming in and crashing with top 10 expectations. 82 is just the list of 100 things to look for this season.

82. Baylor: Sometimes, change is good. Baylor's revamped roster has much more size and positional flexibility. Wyoming transfer Obi Agbim is a flat-out stud lead guard, and Oregon State transfer forward Michael Rataj should be a productive, double-figure scorer all year. But Baylor has also transformed its wing room with the addition of heralded freshman Tounde Yessoufou, Cincinnati transfer Daniel Skillings Jr. and Tennessee transfer Cameron Carr. The Bears aren't quite at the level of Texas Tech, BYU and Houston in the Big 12 pecking order, but Scott Drew has more than enough in the cupboard to make the NCAAs for the eighth straight year.

Ya at very least I think this team will be fun to watch b/c they won't get beat simply by being too short, too soft, or without adequate depth. Should actually take a more skilled team to beat us, so we won't take as many losses like that atrocious home loss at TCU last year to a far less skilled team.

LOL, we have yet to beat TCU at Foster's and haven't lost at Fort Worth in 5 years. Sweeping a conference rival easier said than done.

Lot of time to develop this team, and we will have our hands full tomorrow with a veteran Brazil team. But I continue to be impressed with how Drew has rebuilt this team.

Not sure how he can make some of those observations without our international players playing right now.

Watching Saturdays gold medal game, we still leave opponents with too many wide open 3 point shots. Had hoped the new defensive intensity I'd heard about would address that. Still early, I get it.

This team will go the way of PG play. There is sufficient talent and depth at all other positions to be a top half of the Big 12 team, but it will need someone to emerge as a Big 12 quality floor leader for this team to reach its optimum (top 4 Big 12). White, Williams or someone else may grow into being that person through the season but it will be imperative that someone does.

I read this headline and thought the Globetrotters were playing a team from CBS Sports.
