AP Poll at 11

Predicting AP Top 25 college basketball rankings:

5. Texas Longhorns

Last season's final ranking: 22

Texas was the "Cinderella" of last season's NCAA Tournament as the lone double-digit seed to reach the Sweet 16. Heading into Year 2 of the Sean Miller era, the expectations will be higher than ever after Texas brought back star big man Matas  Vokietaitis and landed David Punch and Isaiah Johnson in the transfer portal. Texas also landed Marcus Spears Jr., the top-ranked player in the 2027 recruiting class by 247Sports, before he reclassified up to join the Longhorns one year early.

Key fifth-year players in eligibility limbo: None

5. Texas

Strengths: Sean Miller and Texas raided the transfer portal early with Isaiah Johnson and David Punch among the key additions ready to play alongside breakout center Matas Vokietaitis. They then doubled down with a big recruiting cycle, including Austin Goosby and reclassified freshman Marcus Spears Jr.

Questions: This Longhorns team brings in 11 new faces to the roster, more than any team around them in the projected AP Poll. They also faced a preseason injury, with transfer guard Mikey Lewis going down recently.

I want to reiterate that Kobe Bryant is the only player with a winning record against Tim Duncan in the playoffs 18-12.

Special treatment from the refs and special treatment from the courts.  Must be nice to be TKR

That doesn't look like 11 to me. Gerry doesn't know what he's talking about. Unsubscribe.

We finally have TV/streaming news for Texas vs St John's. It'll be at 11am on Sunday on ESPN+. Can't wait to get our first look at them and against top competition too on the road.

Cool! Thanks

Should be a good look against an older St John’s team 

A top matchup scrimmage 

I cannot get enough of these preseason interviews.

Also, I hated when Tucker was gone from the Astros, but it's good to see him covering college basketball now.

Such bullsh*t.  7 years in pro leagues in Europe and gets some judge to grant him eligibility here for a year

At least he's classified as a senior. Can you imagine if he was counted as a true freshman with 4 more years of eligibility left?

Why didn’t he go to draft?  Seems like a legit high end pick, even if he’s getting $7mm from St Johns

He is using the NCAA as a deliberate platform to maximize his draft stock.

Will Texas have any Televised scrimmage games before the season starts?
