Big 12 talent deserves NCAA tournament bids
Kansas coach Bill Self and Kansas State coach Bruce Weber argued that the Big 12 deserves multiple NCAA bids this season. Self noted the league’s strength from top to bottom and called 7-11 in the conference potentially tournament-worthy, with 8-10 a likely lock and 6-12 possible if nonconference play is strong. West Virginia was cited as a team with a solid case despite its last-place standing.
