Head coaching changes aren't done, the late recruiting period is still open, and the transfer portal hasn't closed.
It provides some interesting guidance but just way too early.
Exactly. I'm steadily looking for something to check out regarding Tiger hoops tho. I'll take it!
At least the football's "way too early" only has one or two pivotal players from top teams as early entry issues and the majority of recruiting is already wrapped up (and most frosh aren't generally expected to be top players like in CBB).
Take it up with GP...
CBS way-too-early 25+1
My comment was based on Decourcey's sh!tshow of a top 25.
Parrish should be commended for taking the time to hypo the teams as is best imaginable.
revisionism

revisionism
Actually not, dummy.
Parrish is the only one who went through the effort to explain his methodology:
As always, I've communicated with industry sources in an attempt to make educated-guesses about which players will ultimately enter, and remain in, the 2019 NBA Draft. But, to be clear, I do not expect every educated-guess to be correct because there are surprises every year. So each time somebody makes a decision that runs counter to what's projected here, I'll update and adjust these rankings accordingly. That's a promise. And another thing worth noting is that I assigned every uncommitted top-100 prospect to the school most likely to enroll him, according to 247Sports' Crystal Ball projections. So that's why Cole Anthony is on North Carolina's roster, why Matthew Hurt is on Duke's roster, why Trendon Watford is on Memphis' roster, so on and so forth.
And, regardless, like I properly noted, even TRYING to do these "way too early lists" for basketball is tough because there is so much uncertainty with player movement.

Lol, scurry to cover yo tracks.
I'm just pointing out you mocked these polls - until your idol GP posted his.
You trying to make it about Decourcey's picks (and then GP's methodology) is absolute revisionism. Anyone can read it right here in this thread.
And the name-calling just points out your insecurities.

I'm not defending anyone. My statements are entirely consistent regarding the polls and methodology.
You just try desperately to "get one over" on me after being absolutely embarrassed about how balls deep you were on Tubby and ended up the way you did.
But hey, if you think this is the big "GOTCHA" over me, then rock on bro.

Considering I have only disagreed with Saluki a handful of times in like 10 years, I am going to agree with that.
