Early Top 25

ESPN

An early top 25 from Andy Katz of Espn...

Some thoughts, and I know a lot is still based on whether or not guys come back or stay in the draft...

- Memphis will be good, but can they overcome the inferior competition they will go thru in conference USA to be ready for the tourney run.

- IMO Florida, GTown, UNC, tOSU, Kansas of this past year all have better teams than there will be next season.

- Wazzu at #5 is way too high, yes they are a very good team, but putting them there has them winning the pac-10 and I just don't see that.

- Same Louisville team as this past year, but they were very inconsistent, will that change next year?

- I like to see teams like MSU and Indiana looming around the top 10...

- Gonzaga with Heyvelt back should be a solid team, does anyone know if Pargo was a senior?

- Zona is too high, they will be relying on Budinger who is a very good offensive player, but doesnt get it done on the defensive end, and an incoming frosh in Bayless...

- Pitt, Oregon, A&m, Ga Tech who do they have coming back, they both lost their best players...

- And Davidson and SIU ahead of us?

- I just don't see us not being in the top 25...We are going to have a front line that is going to be very hard to matchup up...Hunter, Twig, KK, Madsen, Lauderdale...Then we are going to have a senior PG, and some young, but very solid wings in Diebler and Turner to go along with Lighty...

plus we've got Matta, who has produced top 25 teams with much less talent than we will have next year

unranked? that's rediculous.

Fortunately this is basketball we're talkin about and not football. Although it can be discouraging to be ranked low (or not ranked) as long as you win games when you have to, you can still a successful season if you're not ranked highly going into the end of the season (unlike football, in which hype and rankings play a huge part of what happens in a team's post season).

I know Florida lost a lot too, but both finals teams not ranked? Crazy. But, as Omahabeef pointed out, this really has little to nothing to do with anything. Katz is looking for shock value at this point.

I know it wouldn't have any bearing on the outcome of the season if we started unranked. However, Lighty Twiggs JBut Diebler and Koufos (sp?) are preseason top 25. Hunter too
