NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Arkansas Coach Jimmy Dykes isn't worried about his women's basketball team being picked to finish 11th in the SEC in a preseason media poll.
"We haven't talked about it, and we won't talk about it," Dykes said Thursday at SEC media day. "That has no bearing whatsoever on what we do and how we go about it.
"You could have picked us first or 14th -- it doesn't matter. It's a cliche answer, but all we're concerned about is what are we doing today to get better."
Maybe being 11th in the preseason poll is a good omen for Arkansas, considering that's where the Razorbacks were picked two years ago when they went to the NCAA Tournament and finished 18-12 in Dykes' first season.
