FORT WORTH -- When TCU basketball opened the 2018-19 season ranked the No. 20 team in the country, head coach Jamie Dixon made one thing very clear: The ranking, in his eyes, reflected what the team could ultimately become. Not where it stood in the moment.
With just three games now left in the regular season, it's been clear for some time now that fans will have to wait until next year, at the least, to see a Horned Frogs squad that is playing at full-strength and full potential. And there isn't much the program has been able to do this season to change that fate.
