Iowa St and K St look like shit. We should win convincingly.

(seriously this is not a difficult schedule)

It’s the first game.  But yeah, they both look terrible.  Obviously they will be better when we play them.  
 

We need to fuck the big 12 up this year like you said.

Obviously it's too early to know for sure, but what's happening with Foster, Cook, Green, Eagles, Epps, etc. might suggest the failures of the previous coaches had less to do with scheme and more to do with culture/entitlement.  For this many starters to become bench players as they become upper classmen suggests either evaluation or true competition wasn't happening before.

Or the younger guys fit the scheme better and are just as talented if not more talented.

I've heard this numerous times but I just don't buy it.  We can say the corners switched because they're asked to bump and run more in quarters, but Green spent most of the time doing this last year.  Brown isn't being asked to do things drastically differently than what Foster was asked to do.  The scheme for Eagles and Epps didn't change that drastically.

Again, time will tell.

All of those guys except Epps were takes for every program in the country. The evals weren't the problem.
