I would be shocked if that’s our ceiling. We just got three of our highest recruits ever, and multiple killer transfers as well. I’m pretty sure we’ll be a 3rd in the league.

Wouldn't surprise me. A lot of variables

Probably depends on gelling as a team & learning new systems. Everyone has new players but not all have coaches too.

His point was that the rest of the B12 got better too. So our relative positions is approximately the same.

A lot of people saying B12 had a down year this last season. Wonder how much is based solely on Kansas.

It was based on tournament success. BIG12 didn't do nearly as well as usual

I was thinking about this last night as well and I was guessing top 5 for sure

If you watched the video with Jake Hatch, he says even though BYU got better,

Hey, Dallin Hall is a pretty good QB.

Which of Baylor, Kansas, Houston, Iowa state, and Arizona are we better than?

The ones we beat, and just like last year, it will happen, just depends on who

We'll see. We got some better talent this year, but a staff learning their way in the college world — that, & we lack

Finishing 5th would be an improvement from last season.

The Big12 has 4 teams in the national top 7. I think it’s a reach at this point to think BYU is that good.

5th out of 16 teams + Arizona is better than 5th out of 14 teams.

mulletino

Considering we lost two good teams, and added a premier team, that is

I’d take 5th. The league was down last year. Should be better this year.

If we finish 5th again, I'll be pumped

RenoCoug

BYU could finish 5th in the Big12 and still get a 3 seed

If we can finish 6th of 16 that will be a huge accomplishment. UA and CU being

5th would be great, but JH shouldnt be your BBall resource

Arizona, Kansas, Baylor, Houston, Iowa State all got better too

3 pt shooting is still a concern imo. Not many knockdown shooters on the roster.

Solid shooters on the roster - there are several

Nodak Cougar

Specifically, we need more front court players who can shoot 3s.

Not re-creating last season - we'll have to see

Nodak Cougar

Jun 3, 7:52pm

That would still put us in the AP top 20 probably.

runnincoug

Jun 3, 2:56pm

Probably could be top-15 tbh

Big12 had an unusual amount of injuries last year. That's probably not happening

Let’s not forget Arizona will automatically be in the top tier. This year’s Big12 will be even stronger than last year

Cougarpride

I just re-checked 247Sports (I don’t know which service is the best), but the Big12 slipped slightly since I last

To be fair those are the freshman recruit rankings and transfer ranking seem to

Dang I don't think any fan base except Kansas would call a to 3 finish right now

Sic'Em Beers

as good as our finish was last year if we hit 5th this year that will be amazing

This has not been called the toughest conference for no reason.
