Tough conference, eh?

 

[The Artist Formerly Known as PhormerPhrog]

Forget football. We're a basketball, rifle, yoga pants and romper school anyway.

 

[satis1103]

Too low. But don't believe me, just watch.

 

[Sebastian S]

Baseball had a bad year.
Football, not yet over but not a good year.

Hopefully basketball can lift our spirits.

 

[Portland Frog]

This will be another strong year for the Big 12 conference. Brutal, but it doesn’t get any better seeing all these quality teams!

 

[full house frog]

I’m certainly ready for the season to begin. I have a suspicion that this is going to be our best team in ages. We just need a little experience and we should be good.

 

[full house frog]

Any word when the season tickets will go out?

 

[Moose Stuff]

I
Can’t
Wait

 

[tcumaniac]

I
Can’t
Wait

 

[Double V]

I'm sure injuries and arrests will soon derail the season...all hope is lost.

What if basketball got to sweet 16....that might erase some other sport hurt on Frog Nation

Purple/White Scrimmage at 5:00 today, followed by slam dunk and 3-point shooting contests.

Two thoughts from scrimmage this evening. TCU is going to be very athletic this season. Samuels is a beast.

Erase? No

Slightly soothe? Yes

How’d Alok look?

 

[JogginFrog]

Optimism from the basketball writers--nice.

A less-rosy projection was from The Ringer's One Shining Podcast, which placed the Frogs T41 (with SMU), one spot behind Texas. Was a convenient way for them to plug their plans to attend the TCU-SMU game on 12/5 at Moody.

They actually did a whole podcast on Frogs and Ponies a few weeks ago. (One of the guys is from Ohio and came to town to watch the Buckeyes). It's at:

They spend 30 minutes talking about nothing. SMU part starts around 30:00; TCU part starts around 40:00.

Does anyone think Kansas can be defeated this season? As in not winning the conference forever?

shame samuels had the bizarre qualification problems last year, but from what i have heard he definitely spent the year getting himself physically ready to make an impact
