Did you watch Iowa State against Memphis and/or Xavier? If you hear from JH, he might have some insight into how good Xavier is and whether ISU is for real. I did not see either game. I am now in Union Station Chicago on my way back to Austin, after a holiday hoops drought for me.
I watched them against Memphis but wasn't really trying to break things down; their defense is solid, but I'm interested to see if they can keep this going against Big 12 competition. They're playing much better than expected so far, for sure.
I forgot that Tanner Groves had transferred in to OU but recalled that their previous [medium] big white guy had transferred out. If Lon were still there would you have rated OU the same?

Thanks again for this one.

Hard to say because I think the roster would be so different; I'd probably slot them about the same spot but with less potential upside.
