3. Wichita State: NBA scouts won’t be lining up at Koch Arena the way they will for other teams on this list, but you’ll be hard-pressed to find a pair of guards with more poise and experience than Fred Van Vleet and Ron Baker, both of whom will make some Preseason All-American teams. Throw in Tekele Cotton, a defensive monster, and Gregg Marshall’s club will match up with anyone in the country.

6. UConn: Gone is Shabazz Napier. Running the show in his place this season will be Ryan Boatright. Whether or not he makes the leap that Kemba Walker and Shabazz did in their final years remains to be seen, but he’ll have plenty of help. N.C. State transfer Rodney Purvis is eligible, and top 30 recruit Daniel Hamilton has arrived as well. Throw in Terrence Samuel, Sam Cassell Jr. and Omar Calhoun, and Kevin Ollie has some serious options.

8. Gonzaga: Kevin Pangos was not healthy as a junior. He is now, however, and with the kind of firepower Mark Few has at his disposal, expect Pangos to compete for all-american honors. Gary Bell Jr. is now a senior, and two will be joined by USC transfer Byron Wesley, Kyle Dranginis, and freshman Josh Perkins.

It's amazing how Mark Few reloads year after year. He is the poster child for "the grass is not always greener". That's why the Zags are a national brand and so easy to pull for.

We need some guards who can put us on this list. Front court we should be fine but we need some guards. I can't belive that I'm saying that for Memphis. Memphis always produces guards. We need a difference maker.

Not scared of the Zags.

I hope the Zags go undefeated and maintain a high ranking until we play them.

Good gosh, Pangos is one of those players who seems like he has been playing college ball for 7 or 8 years now...

We might already have some. We definitely have some potential.

IDK how strong the Zags will be in the paint this year, but we should be stronger-and deeper-than they are. Maybe we won't need our PG to be the shot blocker on their sasquatch this time!

Do they still have Sasquatch?

What are we like 7-1 against them the last 10 years?

This board is going to have a massive meltdown after the Wichita State game.

All 7-1, 288 of him. Karnowski or something like that.

Matching up with him will be interesting this season. No Dom Woodson to throw on him this time.

We got Godfrey doe. He's the next junkyard dog!

He weighs about 220-240 doe. Giving up 5 inches and 50 lbs at least.

Can't wait to see Godfrey play. No one gets 9 rebounds a game without a mean streak.

Sasquatch is slow doe. If we actually run we can tire him out.
