As far as comedy goes, this is gold Jerry! Gold!
8th place in the Big XII? Boynton just laughs.

I think predicting us to finish 7th, ahead of Iowa State, would be fair.
I can certainly understand why an outside entity would put us where this article put us with what we lost last year.
What we are adding looks great on paper, but, its virtually impossible to predict the extent of their impact vs the extent of loss we have to absorb.
Losing Cam, Lindy and our best big man is a lot
We'll see how the plus/minus works out with the new additions, but considering how average we were last year, the plus/minus will have to be significant.
And....much of what we are banking on for the massive improvements are kids that have 0 college experience, so who knows how that transition will play out, how long it will take etc...
Boynton is puffing his chest a little to inject some artificial ego into the program, but I think the article is fair.
I like Coach Boynton and think hes just about 100% spot on with the way he handles off the court business, but Im not a big fan of this in particular reaction.
