Coming off three straight College World Series appearances in 2014, 2015 and 2016, losing only four players to graduation and the Draft, and adding a highly ranked recruiting class, the 2017 Horned Frogs were projected as one of the "Eight for Omaha" in July 2016 by Baseball America,[27] D1 Baseball[28] and Perfect Game.[29]

The Horned Frogs started the 2017 season as the unanimous preseason #1 club. For the third straight year, TCU was picked to finish first in the Big 12 Conference.[30]
