Welcome to The Holy Land of Hoops

Led by Butler and X in the top 10, we have climbed to first place in the RPI (realtimerpi.com). I'm pretty sure we will not be moving anywhere from here. Great job to all for getting this done so early!

1. Big East4 From Last Week
2. Atlantic Coast (Down 1 From Last Week)
3. Big Ten (Down 1 From Last Week)
4. Southeastern
5. Big 12 (Down 2 From Last Week)

I don't know how accurate that is- I mean right now, they don't have the American on there at all..

also, looking just right now:
1 Big 12
2 Big East
3 Big Ten
4 Atlantic 10
5 MVC
6 SEC
7 Pac 12
8 ACC
9 WAC
10 MAC

I have no idea how the WAC can be #9 right now. Makes no sense.. guess only thing is no awful teams by rpi standards(worst is 229 right now)...

still way too early. I mean- Northern Colorado is #2 right now.

Well, upended after 5 minutes... oh well. I still think we're going to be #1 rpi by a landslide. The American will have BIG rpi problems.

AAC has
17 Cincy
23 UConn
32 Memphis
58 SMU
101 Rutgers
131 Louisville
179 USF
196 Temple
210 Houston
241 UCF

some of these are still way early.

for comparison
5 Xavier
7 Butler
52 St John's
59 Seton Hall
80 Creighton
85 Providence
108 Villanova
187 Marquette
190 DePaul
211 Georgetown

I will hold the obvious A-10 jokes.

Good for the Big East.

What joke would that be? That they are #4 and ahead of the SEC, Pac 12 and ACC? Yeah that's a great joke!!!!

Yeah, these numbers are huge. I mean, Georgetown is going to finish 240th in RPI, right?

VCU, UMass, and GW have been good. SLU has been good enough. That's it. Lasalle was picked to finish towards the top. How's that working out?

A10 has 2 of the top 4 teams right now in UMass and VCU. GW, Dayton, and Richmond are all in the 32-42 range.

They have some teams that are crazy right now- St Joe's for instance is 188.

It's still early- but to act like the early numbers are anything but good for the A10 is a joke.

Most SLU fans are ambivalent on the A-10 at this point. I think the bigger thing we need to worry about is our play on the floor.

SLU fans are in a constant state of pissed off.

It happens.

the reason why RPI is such a joke right now at this point of the season...

Xavier entered tonight #5
they're now #23
