Men’s Big 12 champ Kansas is coaches’ preseason favorite
IRVING, Texas (AP) — Defending Big 12 champion Kansas, Big 12 champion or co-champion in each of the past eight seasons, is the preseason favorite to win repeat again.
League coaches tapped the Jayhawks as the overwhelming 2012-13 favorite in the annual preseason vote released Thursday.
Kansas was 16-2 in league play last season and made it all the way to the NCAA championship game against Kentucky. The Jayhawks return senior starters Jeff Withey, Elijah Johnson and Travis Releford.
