His standings are off, the only ones he got right IMO are VIllanova and DePaul.

What say you oh wise one?

I think there's no way St Johns even sniffs the top 3 this year.

I think Xavier is getting undersold a bit. They could be really, really good.

Marquette @ 9th is surprising.

We have loads of questions to answer this season. I don't think the ranking is unwarranted, but I sincerely hope we outperform it.

Hopefully I am wrong, but people seem to be overrating my Muskies. We are only super young, 10 underclassmen and 2 seniors. Could be good, but who knows. http://www.goxavier.com/sports/m-baskbl ... l-mtt.html

1. Xavier
2. Villanova
3. Georgetown
