Big 12 Basketball Power Rankings - Offseason Edition

Recently I was scouring the internet and came upon Big 12 football power rankings posted at fellow SB Nation website www.rockchalktalk.com. So I decided to go with this concept and do an offseason basketball power ranking for all the Big 12 teams.
Even though basketball season is still a little ways off, this can be a snapshot of where each team is as of the beginning of September. These rankings are subject to change before the season as some players still have not yet been cleared by the NCAA for certain schools.
For fun I added my Big 12 football power rankings at the end since I also can't wait until kickoff finally gets here.

How long until Rick Barnes seat gets hot?

On the surface, one wouldn't think Rick Barnes need to be worrying about his job security at the University of Texas. Afterall he took over a Texas basketball program in 1998 and has won 3 Big 12 Coach of the Year awards combined with a Final Four appearance in 2003. But if you take a look at his two most recent seasons some could argue that the best days for Barnes and the Texas program with him at the helm are behind them.
So the question becomes if Barnes & the Longhorns have another disappointing season how much of a hot seat could he be under at a place that doesn't accept losing well.
Let's delve a little deeper into this.
