Welcome to the 2018-2019 basketball season, one where the expectations are higher than ever, one where the NCAA Tournament is no longer a dream, but an expectation. One where the Big 12 should be on watch for a team that lost a ton of talent, but reloaded with players that will play at the next level.
This Red Raider team is here, and here to stay with Coach Chris Beard signing a huge extension to be this team’s Head Coach for a long time. There were some rumors suggesting his Elite 8 run with last year’s team would be enough to get a bigger job, but Beard has decided to stay in Lubbock, a move I believe will be better for this program and school than people might think.
