Brock Harding

He's got a great returning nucleus, again, back, who have obviously working knowledge of TCU's program.

Brock Harding at point guard, Tanner Toulson at guard, but also Micah Robinson and Xavier Edmonds.

All these guys back.

And I took in a TCU, obviously, visit during the preseason.

But...

Bringing back Xavier Edmonds, bringing back Micah Robinson, bringing back Brock Harding.

Pretty good guys that you're bringing back from a nine-seed tournament team last year.

I don't think you're going to play too much when you get that type of production back.

So it's hard not to like this team.

Brock Harding's back managing the point.

He gives the Horned Frog some senior leadership, along with the returning forwards and Xavier Edmonds and Micah Robinson, who can do a little bit of everything, both of them.

And then Luke Bamgoy played 17 minutes a game for Texas Tech last year, and he averaged almost two blocks a game at the five.

It's Big 12 today, visiting with TCU Horned Frog men's basketball players.

We've got Xavier Edmonds and Brock Harding joining us here.

What's going on, guys?

Go ahead.

fans?

Yes, sir.

Because I feel like Brock Harding is the name of a superhero character.

Yeah.

And then Tanner Toulson can really shoot the ball.

Brock Harding, in moments, can shoot the ball, but he's a great passer.

There's a good amount of floor there to where a bunch of these guys were together last year.

There's a nice influence of Juco and Euro.

This team has the requisites to challenge for a spot in the top four of the Big 12, especially when you look at the landscape of this conference.

Micah Robinson's back, okay? Brock Harding is back.

You also have Xavier Edmonds back.

Tanner Toulson is back.

Because I take a look at TCU and you no longer have David Punch anymore, but you got a lot of those ancillary pieces from a season ago.

Micah Robinson, Brock Harding, Xavier Edmonds, they all return from a season ago.

I think Gavin Sykes was a nice pickup as well from the Big West.

I think that you're gonna be able to get something out of Ryan Hunt, a 7' little bit of a project guy down low.

With TCU, I have a respect for JB Dixon as a coach.

His teams are always in the top 50 in terms of points allowed on a per possession basis, right around about 47 last year.

And you do lose David Punch from down low, but you maintain a lot of the, shall we say, mixers and shakers from this team, including your main facilitator in Brock Harding, who was averaging eight points, five and a half assists per contest.

Xavier Edmonds, he under the radar, 12 and a half points, six and a half boards, shot over 42 and a half percent from three-point range last season.

Uh, but there's some, some gamers on the roster.

As much as Brock Harding struggled from three last year, he is a feisty defender, great passer.

I, I kinda see it with TCU.

Where do you land with the, the Frogs?

I think if, if Punch was on this roster, I'd have a, a very different outlook with them.

Uh, who's starting at the two? Trent Lincoln, Gavin Sykes, Tanner Toolson I think are in the three-man committee there to start.

And, uh, my, my com- my relationship like with watching Brock Harding minutes is like, it's hard 'cause I just kind of wonder like what your ceiling is when your point guard, you know, doesn't...

You know, he shot under 40% from the field last year.
