Joe Lunardi Picks Hofstra in 2016
Of course, this doesn't mean ANYTHING, but Joe Lunardi just released his earliest prediction for the 2016 NCAA Brackets (Bracketology).
http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/bracketology
He picked Hofstra as a 15 seed, and not surprisingly the CAA remains a one-bid league.
I agree that the CAA will likely only have one bid, but Hofstra?
Ehhhhh, I dunno about that one.

RE: Joe Lunardi Picks Hofstra in 2016
Lunardi's "expertise" is limited to guessing what 10 people in a little room are going to do, and whether he's wildly inaccurate about seedings or the Last 4 in or not, he continues to get paid. His opinion on college basketball in any aspect is meaningless.
That being said, from a pure talent perspective Hofstra is definitely a "sexy" pick next year. They were a Vegas favorite in the CAA Tourney this year and didn't disappoint, blowing out JMU and taking W&M to overtime. Juan'Ya Green and Ameen Tanksley are back as Seniors. Rokas Gustys will be one of the best big men in the conference in 2 years, if not sooner, making up for the loss of Moussa Kone in the middle.
Not sure what their recruiting class is looking like and I'm not sold at all on Mihalich, but I can see Hofstra finishing top 3 for sure.
