We're higher than I expected.

Same here --- wouldn't be surprised if the name "Memphis" carries it's own weight.

Say What?.....Are you kidding me?....No way in heck should we be that darn low.....We will make them regret that, once the season gets going, and we got a superstar in the making who is gonna breakout this year in my buddy Kuran Iverson.....We will worry about this and get back to once Football Season is over, cause our Tigers under General Fuente are going 9-3 no worse than 8-4 and a good bowl game and winning it.....And will sign a better recruiting class than the Two previous ones.....The World Is Ours Memphis....

Same. Can be either good or bad in my prior experiences. Best advice is to try and have a good time.

Wasnt UConn unranked preseason last year?
Not a bad place to be!

I kinda dig being outside the top 30 to start the season. If (when) we rack up some good wins, we'll climb. If we don't get the wins, no letdown, because we shouldn't have been ranked up there in the first place.

Surpised to see Wichita State ranked that high at no. 11. Would be a great win for us at Sioux Falls.

Weight. Elephant. Your elephant is getting inside my mind. A customer who sat in the middle of the aisle got called 'Dumbo' recently. "Up, Dumbo." He took offense too. I'm blaming you.
Back to the OP. Dickie V didn't even rank us in his top 40.

As I recall they have two preseason All Americans on their team.

Yeah, I just don't know anything about them and read somewhere, someplace that they were expected to fall off this year.
In any event, I've got my tickets for the game--my first Tigers regular bball game in years.

I don't think preseason AAs have been named yet, have they?

We were unranked in 2010-11 and won the whole thing as a 3-seed. Last year we were preseason #18.
I'm much higher on Memphis than some on this board and other bball junkies I've talked to I. You have a lot of talented young guys (soph and juniors) that will be studs.

It'll be interesting to see how the "new guard" fares now that the 2010 recruiting class has graduated.

Wichita State has a 1st and 3rd team preseason player on CBSSports.com.

I knew I'd seen it posted here somewhere. Checked the Internet and it was Blue Ribbon Yearbook's list. Fred Van Vleet was first team another was 3rd team.
