Welcome to The Sports Bank’s second annual college basketball season preview series.* Last year we looked at 99 teams in 99 days.* This year, we are being slightly more aggressive and expanding to 111 teams in 111 days.* We will rank the 74 power conference teams and top 37 mid-majors in reverse power ranking order.* We’ll break down rosters, non-conference schedules, and pick a player to watch for each team.

The Knight legacy at Texas Tech was short lived as Pat Knight was fired after four years as the Red Raiders head coach.* Now Billy Gillispie returns to Texas where he hopes to revive the Texas Tech basketball program just like Eric Taylor did with East Dillon Lions football team.* (Texas Forever.)
