TCU forward Xavier Edmonds is entering the 2026-27 college basketball season with plenty of expectations, and CBS Sports is recognizing his potential to become one of the top players in the country.
Edmonds arrived at TCU before last season after beginning his collegiate career at the junior college level.
Maintaining that level of production will be essential as TCU looks to compete against some of the nation's strongest programs.
The timing of Edmonds' recognition is also significant because TCU will need experienced players to step forward following changes to its roster.
His experience and production could help provide stability while allowing younger players and newcomers time to adjust to the demands of Big 12 basketball.
