No love for my Terps?!?! They’re a second round team that only lost Dave Neal and is bringing in two strong froshes to bolster the frontcourt. Greivis+Gary in 09-10!!!

I’m glad Singler and Scheyer are there to compliment each other. Just think of the possibilities!

“Man, you’re so awesomely white” “You too!”

Anyway – I think if Duke gets Dawkins, you can’t rank them lower than UNC. Otherwise, UK and Purdue are ranked too low. While I like that Clemson is ranked (go ACC), I’d like to see Purnell utilize Booker more and the press less before I remain convinced of their top 25 status.

Jameson – I had Dayton #18 and Xavier NR so agreed there.

Duke is better than UNC on paper, but I don’t think they ultimately will be, so I’ve rated them higher in an out-of-season poll.

Also agreed on UConn – rated them #15 on my list. Would have been much lower had Majok not been eligible.

Appreciate the comments, though.

Here’s my beef:
Xavier is not better than Dayton. There’s no argument in my book on how Xavier could be better than Dayton.

Duke is better than North Carolina, especially if Andre Dawkins is eligible for Duke. If Dawkins is there, Duke is one of the best teams in the country.

UConn is not that good. Dyson, Walker, Robinson doesn’t make a top 10 team. They are top 25, but not top 10.

2 issues, Villanova #3, Duke #8? Villanova is #7 at best, Duke, not even in the top 15.
