Personally, I'm glad we aren't ranked.

Didn't we have five teams ranked last season? Probably ain't going to see that again.

Maybe not this season, but no reason it can't happen again...

You never know. Lightning maybe can strike twice and we get 4 ranked at some point.

Zero votes for Cincy surprised me too.

Maybe Memphis will beat them this year, lol.

RE: Preseason USA Today / Coaches Basketball poll
When was the last time you saw a defending national champion as low as 15 in the pre-season polls? They are really underselling the American and naturally way too high on the BIG. This should give us all even more reason to go out and get some big wins OOC!

RE: Preseason USA Today / Coaches Basketball poll
UC lost an all american in Sean Kirkpatrick And their #2 scorer and block leader Justin Jackson. With a team that already struggled to score, it may take awhile for this team to hit its stride. I fully expect this to be a much different team in Feb than what we see in November. Most "experts" see this as a borderline NCAA team

Roster makeup
Freshman- 4
Sophomore- 3
Juniors- 4 ( 2 of which are transfers)
Seniors-2

I agree with this. You are going to see a bit of an up and down early in the season for UC. By conference play you are going to have a very good team that should probably finish around 3-4 in conference.

The next few years after this are going to be incredible. The overall talent and depth on this team is better than I've seen since the Huggins days. With another Top 30 recruiting class coming in next year, its going to be quite the roster.

Meh, they lost Napier, I think 15 is about right.
