Happy with that. Well jump significantly if we win our first 4 games, probably top 10.

Michigan? :question:

Michigan? :question:

Believe it or not, this Michigan team can make some noise. They return their best playmakers from the team that won a share of the Big Ten regular season championship, and bring in upgrades at the remaining positions.

Trey Burke and Tim Hardaway Jr. are proven commodities. Now with Mitch McGary and Glenn Robinson III, this is a legitimate contender.

While I'd say starting at 5 is a bit high, I definitely think Michigan is a top 10 team.

UK at 3 is high IMO, but it comes with the name and is now expected I suppose. Just see this UK team not living up to that billing.

Not sure who Blue Ribbon Yearbook is, but it's nice to see the hoops team getting some national attention!

Indiana at #1?

Indiana returns everyone from a very good team last year, absolutely the only team that should be #1 pre season IMO.

And one of just two teams to beat the national champs.

So, I know what I'm doing Friday. Reading Blue Ribbon all day.

We're a top 10 school imo. Its a stretch right now to consider us in the top 5. Sooo much unproven talent. Cal has yet to recruit a bust *knocks on wood* but it happens to every coach eventually. UT on the other hand will again be under rated. Last year they were slated to end the season in last place. Kind of think its crap that they only listed 3 SEC schools. I thought Mizzou for sure would be ranked considering all their talented transfers coming in.

Hi btw. New UK troll to add to you collection. Was forced to move here for my job.

Would be more than glad to switch locations with you. I live by Lexington and it sucks seeing so much blue

I rock my UK apparel often and im surprised that no ones really bothered me about it in the 8 months of been here. Lex isnt that bad. Not much diversity when it comes to other fan bases so we're a bit annoying at times.

...but i live here know and im starting to come around with UT basketball. Went to a few games and figured id start following CCM. He over achieved and i can't wait to see this next season.

Whoa. Creighton and St. Louis? Rearry?

 

[MemphisCanes]

Whoa. Creighton and St. Louis? Rearry?

Ain't nobody believed me about St. Louis, they were statistically a top 10 team last season, and they return everybody. They did lose coach Majerus though, so for that reason alone I wouldn't list them top 25. Just outside until we can see how they fare with a new coach.
