TCU News: Football recruiting stays hot, Basketball opens conference play against Baylor

Basketball:

Saturday afternoon is huge for a program trying to establish itself as a true contender.

“A lot of people don’t have high expectations for us. I feel like we should be ranked,” senior point guard Alex Robinson said. “They haven’t given us that.”

Winning Big 12 games is the easiest way for TCU to get back in the good graces of voters. And conference play gets underway at 3 p.m. Saturday against Baylor at Schollmaier Arena.

The Frogs are riding an eight-game winning streak, including winning the Diamond Head Classic in Hawaii last month, but still have been in the “receiving votes” category since falling out of the Top 25 rankings after a stunning home loss to Lipscomb on Nov.
