USM's leading scorer.. likely to be Tulane's best player next season...Tulane is 3 for 4 on waivers so far, and the 4th waiver is not that vital

for the 2nd year in row tulane has gotten every major waiver it wanted- usf and tulane have shown to have elite compliance departments

Many NBA mock draft sites are projecting James Wiseman to the Hornets at #3!

He is sorely needed.

Devonte Graham (What an unexpected steal this kid was!)
Terry Rozier
Malik Monk
Miles Bridges
PJ Washington
James Wiseman

Ladies and gents... that is beginning to resemble an NBA roster worth noting!

NCAA be like:

"We feel you, Ron. We'll make sure you can get all the help you need to turn THAT team around."

Jokes aside, this is really great news.

SMU at #38, with a very indepth preview of SMU
https://www.three-man-weave.com/3mw/smu-2020-21-preview

(there was no preview for Wichita, only top 40 got articles, but they have Wichita at #45)

they have Memphis at 30 and arent accounting for either williams or nolley
https://www.three-man-weave.com/3mw/memp...21-preview

coming in at #11 is Houston

indepth preview: https://www.three-man-weave.com/3mw/hous...21-preview

notable nuggets:
- would have been a top 5 team had Hinton and white had played
- they've been to houston practices, defense and rebounding are systematic with Sampson, houston will be elite at both regardless of personnel -explains why in article

- Houston has elite guards- calls the fearsome foursome
- Houston was the 4th most zoned team in the nation last year (houston wasnt a good 3pt shooting team, but had elite 1 on 1 players- so everyone went zone)
- notes the zones led to really poor shot selection and an abnormally high amount of mid-ranges - specifically calls out mills in the poor shot selection
- mills can score, grimes showed flashes of dominance, jarreau good at everything but shooting, sasser vastly under rated- team better with him on the floor
- Tyson had elite 3pt shooting numbers, Mark is big and shifty like Jarreau, Gorham is improving his offensive range

David Dejulius granted waiver for UC.


Lessss Gooooo win the AAC

UC can definitely win this league. Please have a season.

Our roster is in great shape now. We have depth, talent, and experience at every position.

Foolish to pick Cincy to finish any worse than 3rd now. If Memphis doesn't get their waivers then Cincy could maybe slot into the second spot.

Uc’s biggest issue will be getting it’s allotment of new comers to gel quickly.

That's going to be a challenge for a lot of teams. Teams like UH, SMU, USF with a lot of roster continuity have a big advantage if practices get delayed or non-con games get cancelled/moved later.

Excellent running summation Pesik. Thanks!

I thought Landers was more unlikely than DeAndre's waiver. I fully expect DeAndre to get his waiver as well.

rothstein updates his top 45..

memphis to 25, houston still at 20, smu at 45

The prognosticators annually underrate Cincinnati... you'd think they would know better by now. I mean, we've only gone to the NCAA tournament 23 times out of 28 seasons. And those numbers would be even better of course if our former school president hadn't gutted the program in the mid-2000's.

That was the thinking under normal conditions, but now the NCAA seems to be approving everybody.
