Iowa State basketball coach T.J. Otzelberger says his players are prepared to handle massive expectations heading into next season as they return to campus. The Cyclones return their top four scorers from last year’s team that won the Big 12 Tournament title and made it to the Sweet Sixteen of the NCAA Tournament.

Otzelberger says progress during the season was a key for that team and it will be again.

Otzelberger says reaching a team’s potential is a mix of patience and a sense of urgency.
