………not much love for the B12. As to be expected, returning or added proven production is the focus.

6 B12 teams in, 2 hosting

Colorado as a 10 seed.
West Virginia as an 8 seed.
TCU as a 7 seed.
Oklahoma State as a 6 seed.

Once you drop below early rounds hosting teams, the slotting is very much a dice roll. WBB teams 17-35 are all talented but also significantly flawed in some manner.

Biggest takeaway is the TCU slotting below OSU. Other than Miles and Silva, TCU mostly added potential [not proven production]. Also, TCU has yet to address loss of most of their reliable outside shooting. Creme valued OSU's returning production more than TCU's potential and size.

Baylor as a 4 seed.
ISU as a 4 seed [automatic qualifier].

Again a strong focus on returning production in selecting AQ. Not sure where ISU gets D. They had little last year. They have O but not sure Williams & Crooks are a great pairing. Kept Brown but lost Joens to portal.

South Carolina, UConn, UCLE & Texas as #1 seeds is predictable. LSU, OU, Tennessee & Duke is mostly predictable…..maybe a reach for Duke. With Johnson returning, bump LSU & drop UT seems likely.

3 seeds contain stretches: Vandy, NC St., UNC & Maryland contains some reaches.

Other 4 seeds: Ole Miss [under seeded likely], and Michigan [over seeded likely].

Biggest Surprise: Even with injury to Watkins & roster turnover, dropping USC to a 5 below conference foe Michigan

Other under seeds at top: Baylor & Ole Miss
Over seeds at top: ACC schools

I recently went through some rosters to guess at next year's top 10.

It's really tough. After like 7 no one looks great. There were a ton of teams with big senior classes this year.

I wouldn't want to try to guess the 3 and 4 seeds at this point.

The last of the COVID monstrosity. Rebalancing……at least until NCAA grants a 5th year of eligibility and then the imbalance returns.

TCU also added Suarez (13 points, 7 rebounds at Cal) and Sheffey (11 points for San Diego State). They also have one heck of a coach. I believe he took over a team that was at the bottom 1-17 of the Big 12 and wins the Big 12 in two years time. Believe Madie Scherr will be back after averaging 13 points a game the previous year. I just gotta believe they will be very competitive.
